Sorry for being inexperienced with Fedora configs but how I do that?
Ensuring that Juli@ driver modules are loaded first is in practice
difficult to achieve. Thanks to always so exciting Udev.
By the way /etc/modprobe.conf is an empty file. All the stuff is
in /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf.dist and most of it don't make any
sense. At least to me anyway. Where's /etc/modprobe.d/alsa for example?
I know that in newer Alsa I might be able to change the order of the
cards by issuing index for them. Like shown in here:
http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/MultipleCards#How_to_choose_a_particula...
Unfortunantely that method doesn't seem to work in Fedora 9 thanks to
PulseAudio and very different alike configs.
How to change order of the sound cards now because in F9
system-config-sound has been removed? This is just the thing I have been
asking since the first message with this topic.
Sorry, Antti. I'm still running F7 and I have no clue. I pine for
simpler days and feel your pain. This may be even more clueless, but
could you just remove the webcam, reboot and see if your sound comes up
properly? Plug the webcam back in, reboot and hopefully your sound card
will still be first?
Is this a laptop with a built in webcam?? Yikes, if so about all you
could do would be to shut it down in the bios, if that is possible. In
the same vein, if this is a laptop, and lsusb shows that the webcam is
usb, in the bios you could turn off USB. THAT would kill it off, for
sure. Then continue the boot up, see if your sound works properly. That
would set it to number 1, then turn USB back on and hopefully the webcam
will be noted as the second.
Still trouble shooting with a shotgun. I've been doing alot of that
recently. Again, I feel your pain! :) Ric
