Why is the alsamixer gone?
I am using a simple guide to get a bleeding edge installation and it always works. But yesterday I tried to do the alsa upgrade script and it run true in a few sec so I know something was wrong. Tried typing alsamixer and got the message that is was not installed..
But its always there, every time I do this I have the old mixer.
So it gave me a hint installing it manually and it works BUT the alsa upgrade script it not working anymore. 3 days ago it did. I think the alsa mixer is part of the base installation or is it part of the XBMC installation ?? is it not included anymore in the bleeding edge releases ?
1 install the base system using the 9 MB cd.
2 add the deb's to the 3rd party sources.list
3 import key : sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 64234534
4 installing xbmc : sudo apt-get install xbmc xinit x11-xserver-utils
5 installing proper nuild-essentials : sudo apt-get install build-essential cdbs fakeroot dh-make debhelper debconf libstdc++5 dkms linux-headers-$(uname -r)
6 download video driver : wget http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Li...6-pkg1.run
7 Make it executable : sudo chmod +x NVIDIA-Linux-x86-185.18.36-pkg1.run
8 run the driver : sudo ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-185.18.31-pkg1.run
9 create proper xorg.conf file : sudo nvidia-xconfig -s --no-logo --force-generate
10 install xbmc helpers : sudo apt-get install xbmc-live python-apt
11 run the alsamixer update because my mainboard needs it.
Help…!!
