[Freeswitch-users] skypopen: problem loading the custom alsa driver

[Giovanni Maruzzelli]

please install a normal standard version of Ubuntu server (eg: from
downloaded cd).

probably with debootstrap you lack something, or in some way it's different.

btw, for eg, the kernels installed for "virtual" flavor of kvm in
ubuntu, they lack sound support (it's just not compiled. Sound support
is an option when you compile the kernel. It has nothing to do with
ALSA, but ALSA need it to be loaded).

maybe if you repeat your procedure, starting from a bootstrap, make
sure you install a kernel with sound support, and that have alsa
drivers. Check that you can modprobe snd-dummy before trying to
compile and install the new alsa version.

If the kernel you install has no alsa drivers installed by default,
probably it was compiled without sound support. So, you can for sure
compile and install alsa drivers, but they will not be loaded by that
kernel, because the kernel itself is compiled without sound support.
