This evening I did a "sudo yum update" which included a new kernel and kernel headers. So I reinstalled the Nvidia proprietary driver (290.10), rebooted and now I have no sound.
/var/log/yum.log shows the following record of this evening's update:
Mar 03 21:12:39 Updated: libpinyin-0.5.91-3.fc16.x86_64 Mar 03 21:12:41 Updated: libpinyin-data-0.5.91-3.fc16.x86_64 Mar 03 21:12:41 Updated: openssh-5.8p2-25.fc16.x86_64 Mar 03 21:12:42 Updated: openssh-clients-5.8p2-25.fc16.x86_64 Mar 03 21:12:43 Updated: openssh-server-5.8p2-25.fc16.x86_64 Mar 03 21:12:44 Updated: ibus-pinyin-1.4.0-12.fc16.x86_64 Mar 03 21:12:44 Updated: ql2400-firmware-5.06.05-1.fc16.noarch Mar 03 21:12:46 Updated: tracker-0.12.10-1.fc16.x86_64 Mar 03 21:12:47 Updated: kernel-headers-3.2.7-1.fc16.x86_64 Mar 03 21:12:48 Updated: ql2500-firmware-5.06.05-1.fc16.noarch Mar 03 21:12:51 Updated: ibus-pinyin-db-open-phrase-1.4.0-12.fc16.noarch Mar 03 21:12:52 Updated: fetchmail-6.3.21-1.fc16.x86_64 Mar 03 21:13:02 Installed: kernel-devel-3.2.7-1.fc16.x86_64 Mar 03 21:13:08 Installed: kernel-3.2.7-1.fc16.x86_64
I tried booting the prior kernel (3.2.6-3) and now I get no sound with that kernel.
After rebooting kernel-3.2.7-1.fc16.x86_64 I launched FlightGear from a command line and get permission errors ALSA lib confmisc.c:768:(parse_card) cannot find card '0' ALSA lib conf.c:4241:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_card_driver returned error: Permission denied ALSA lib confmisc.c:392:(snd_func_concat) error evaluating strings ALSA lib conf.c:4241:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_concat returned error: Permission denied ALSA lib confmisc.c:1251:(snd_func_refer) error evaluating name ALSA lib conf.c:4241:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: Permission denied ALSA lib conf.c:4720:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: Permission denied ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM sysdefault ALSA lib confmisc.c:768:(parse_card) cannot find card '0' ALSA lib conf.c:4241:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_card_driver returned error: Permission denied ALSA lib confmisc.c:392:(snd_func_concat) error evaluating strings ALSA lib conf.c:4241:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_concat returned error: Permission denied ALSA lib confmisc.c:1251:(snd_func_refer) error evaluating name ALSA lib conf.c:4241:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: Permission denied ALSA lib conf.c:4720:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: Permission denied ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM sysdefault ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.front ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.rear ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.center_lfe ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.side ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.surround40 ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.surround41 ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.surround50 ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.surround51 ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.surround71 ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.iec958 ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.iec958 ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.iec958 ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.hdmi ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.hdmi ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.modem ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.modem ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.phoneline ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.phoneline ALSA lib dlmisc.c:236:(snd1_dlobj_cache_get) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib64/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so ALSA lib dlmisc.c:236:(snd1_dlobj_cache_get) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib64/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so ALSA lib confmisc.c:768:(parse_card) cannot find card '0' ALSA lib conf.c:4241:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_card_driver returned error: Permission denied ALSA lib confmisc.c:392:(snd_func_concat) error evaluating strings ALSA lib conf.c:4241:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_concat returned error: Permission denied ALSA lib confmisc.c:1251:(snd_func_refer) error evaluating name ALSA lib conf.c:4241:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: Permission denied ALSA lib conf.c:4720:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: Permission denied ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM dmix ALSA lib confmisc.c:768:(parse_card) cannot find card '0' ALSA lib conf.c:4241:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_card_driver returned error: Permission denied ALSA lib confmisc.c:392:(snd_func_concat) error evaluating strings ALSA lib conf.c:4241:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_concat returned error: Permission denied ALSA lib confmisc.c:1251:(snd_func_refer) error evaluating name ALSA lib conf.c:4241:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: Permission denied ALSA lib conf.c:4720:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: Permission denied ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM dmix Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory Cannot connect to server socket jack server is not running or cannot be started
This system has been working great since a fresh FC16 install Feb. 16.
Does any of the above point to what was broken by the yum update?
Thanks in advance, Dave P.
