Subject: Powermac Sound Issue with Wallstreet PowerBook

For over the last few weeks, I've been trying to get sound working on my
Powerbook G3. I've tried various different things with no luck. Anyone
got any ideas??

dmasound_pmac: Awacs/Screamer Codec Mfct: 2 Rev 3
input: dmasound beeper as /class/input/input4
PowerMac Screamer DMA sound driver rev 016 installed
Core driver edition 01.06 : PowerMac Built-in Sound driver edition 00.07
Write will use 4 fragments of 32768 bytes as default
Read will use 4 fragments of 32768 bytes as default
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.13 (Tue Nov 28
14:07:24 2006 UTC).
PM: Adding info for platform:snd_powermac
snd: can't request rsrc 0 (Sound Control:
0x00000000f3014000:00000000f3014fff)
ALSA device list:
No soundcards found.

Looks like the problem is that you have both the OSS and the ALSA driver
built into your kernel. Try removing one of them, preferably the OSS
driver (it's obsolete).
