Missing symbols in snd.o

Post by Tobermory Womble »

I think that the most recent version of alsa may have broken something.

I get the following when trying to modprobe snd_intel8x0 xbox=1
"Warning: /lib/modules/2.4.34.2-gentoox/kernel/sound/acore/snd.o symbol for parameter major not found
/lib/modules/2.4.34.2-gentoox/kernel/sound/acore/snd.o: symbol for parameter cards_limit not found"

This is a clean build of Home 6.2 on a version 1.2 Xbox.
Following the build, I ran magic and emerged alsa-utils, alsa-tools and alsa-driver-xbox.
I have run etc-update, update-modules and depmod -ae, and everything looks clean.

I have tried rebuilding the kernel, but that didn't help either.

Same exact problem here. I didn't even update the system or emerge alsa-driver-xbox, and neither did I run magic. All I emerged was mythtv, ntp, alsa-utils, and a few other random things, none of which should have any effect on the ALSA modules.

Please let me know if you do find a solution.

Hmm, I managed to get it to load and work for me. I still get the warnings, but now it loads.

Try update-modules. Grep /etc/modules.conf to make sure there are no references to "snd". Then try to load the modules.

Well spotted. That did the job nicely, and I've even managed to get optical sound working from mythtv.

All I need to do is work out why there's no video on the HDTV...
