Hello,<br><br>I'm battling by fc5 installation trying to get the onboard sound card to<br>load in the same order on each reboot. My motherboard is a k8ngm2-fid<br>with onboard audio. I also have a pchdtv-5500 card that shows up as a
<br>sound device:<br><br>[root@lrlart mythtv]# cat /proc/asound/cards<br>0 [CX8801 ]: CX88x - Conexant CX8801<br>Conexant CX8801 at 0xfc000000<br>1 [NVidia ]: HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia<br>HDA NVidia at 0xf7fd0000 irq 217<br>
<br><br>Sometimes on reboot the order switches and the NVidia is card 0 and the<br>pchdtv card is card 1. The alsa drivers appear to always attach to card<br>0, so when the system boots up in the order above sound does not work
<br>(but the reverse order does).<br><br>My modprobe.conf is:<br><br>alias eth0 forcedeth<br>alias scsi_hostadapter sata_nv<br>alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel<br>install snd-hda-intel /sbin/modprobe --first-time --ignore-install
<br>snd-hda-intel && { /sbin/modprobe snd-pcm-oss; /bin/true; }<br>remove snd-hda-intel { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ;<br>}; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-hda-intel<br># nvidia kernel module
<br>alias char-major-195 nvidia-1_0-8774<br>alias nvidia nvidia-1_0-8774<br><br><br>I've tried other variations on the modprobe.conf, but with no luck. How<br>do I can I force the nvidia onboard sound to load as card 0? Thanks for
<br>any help!<br><br>Mike<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>mythtv-users mailing list<br><a href="mailto:mythtv-users@mythtv.org">mythtv-users@mythtv.org</a><br><a href="http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users">

<br>
options cx88_alsa index=2<br>
<br>
This forced the audio device for the hd5500 to use "/dev/dsp2", which
left /dev/dsp available when my "real" sound card initialized,
regardless of discovery order.<br>
<br>
Hope this helps...<br>
