Subject: [linux-audio-user] Now, no sound at all.

In seeing if I could dub through the UA-30, I discovered that the device
itself is apparently broken. Playing a tape through its LINE IN inputs,
I only got one channel. Carefully testing things on the tape deck,
cabling, and UA-30, I determined that nothing is coming in via the right
channel input of the UA-30.

This appears to make all other questions about using it moot.

So I pulled the UA-30, and tried to play another MP3 through XMMS. It
told me that it couldn't, and suggested that there was no soundcard
configured. I rebooted, and things got worse, with no sound at all
happening through anything.

I have the following in /var/log/messages:

Jun 25 17:55:16 localhost modprobe:
/lib/modules/2.4.21-0.13mdk/kernel/sound/aco
re/snd.o:
Jun 25 17:55:16 localhost modprobe: unresolved symbol snd_verbose_printk

/kernel/sound/acore/snd.o failed
Jun 25 17:55:16 localhost modprobe: modprobe: insmod snd-ens1371 failed

I tried several things that the Troubleshooting window in draksound
suggested:

Do any of these suggest anything that I should be doing? Have I
completely destroyed all possibility of doing sound on my system, or
does it only look that way? *sigh* After years -- literally -- of trying
to get this stuff to work, it's still completely unintelligible to me.
