However, I can't get sound to work. The startup messages look like:
Does anyone know how to get sound to work? I noticed that Colin
Charles on his 12/9/2004 blog says he got it working, but doesn't give
details.
I use alsa:
in /etc/modprobe.conf
alias snd-card-0 snd-powermac
install snd-powermac /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-powermac &&
/usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-powermac { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; };
/sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-powermac
Note you'll have to unmute things when you've loaded the modules for the first
time, use alsamixer for this.
