Hi,
I tried to install alsa-driver snapshot but I think I'm not enough skilled : I first uninstall alsa-lib, then I install the alsa-driver snapshot. When I try to (re)start alsa, I get this error: "/usr/sbin/alsactl: error while loading shared libraries: libasound.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" and a "sudo find / -name 'libasound*'" didn't return any result.
Did I do the right installation processus? What else can I try to help?
Thanks
Hi Vincent.
You don't have to uninstall alsa lib to upgrade the alsa driver. First reinstall the alsa-lib package, reboot, or restart alsa, and see if it's working now.
Post the output of cat /proc/asound/version, which will verify if the alsa driver is now the latest version (1.0.18a)
I also have an Archlinux install (Don't Panic). My hda intel card works ok with the 1.0.17 alsa driver. (ALC662 codec).
All the best.
Nigel.

I can have is the noise from the external mic. Is there any specific actions I forgot to do?
Here is my alsa-info output :

Could you first try the latest alsa-driver snapshot (or sound git tree)?
