[alsa-devel] No CD audio with kernel 2.6.32.3

[Chris Clayton]

Hi,

Please cc me on any reply - I'm not subscribed.

Except for CD audio, sound is working fine on my new HP G61 laptop
with kernel 2.6.32.3. I can play CD audio fine in Windows.

IIRC, on my (very) old Dell laptop, alsamixer showed a CD audio
device, but that's not the case on the G61. I have asla built as
modules.

Diagnostics:

Let me know if there is any other information I can provide.

Thanks
