Topic: Audio AC97 on SME7

[jonasbrum]

Hi guys,

I'm trying to install the AC97 driver on my SME box, i need that to run a sound application in a VMware Host Windows XP. I've download the realtek-linux-audiopack-4.05b with the codecs for AC97, the only problem is when I try to run the installation script I got a error message sayin :

----
checking for libasound headers version >= 1.0.9... not present.
configure: error: Sufficiently new version of libasound not found.
----

Anyone knows how I can install the libasound headers on SME?
Thanks...

I've had good results using alsa to get sound from SME.

Code: [Select]

[root@c3 ~]# yum  --enablerepo=base --enablerepo=updates install alsa-utils alsa-lib

Use alsamixer to unmute Master and PCM and increase their volume levels.
