HDMI NO AUDIO GT 430

[CentralMedia]

No I did not do that upgrade of alsa, will look at this over the weekend, should have some free time then.

woah woah woah...

First... I thought I had the 430 going ootb.

Second, to fix your funky screen, mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.back and reboot. Should dump you  to avwiz and sizing fixed.

This failure to install the pieces needed is breaking during the audio stuffs as well. During the initial install did this thing have internet access?

Please give me the output of lspci -nn | grep VGA

Was gonna say I noticed latest nvidia and alsa 24 installed on my box during first boot, before setup.  Does not happen with no internet.

l3mce - See information requested, was a bit occupied

linuxmce@dcerouter:~$ lspci -nn | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation GF108 [GeForce GT 430] [10de:0de1] (rev a1)

Also I did re-run the avwizard and no luck.

I had and old machine lying around, used it as an MD, with GT 520 in it, which installed the nvidia current and I got the same resolution to large, set it to 720 p and it was fine, this machine installed alsa 24, well that what the mixer said. Had to upgrade the kernel as the core to get audio over hdmi.

[l3mce]

It should have installed the natty kernel on its own... very strange.

Again... during install, are we sure this thing had internet DURING the install?

[CentralMedia]

Yes it had internet, downloaded the nvidia driver during the install, among a few other things.

I've got a core with a GT430, had it for a few years now and never managed to get the audio over HDMI working. I was using an optical input to my amp to get around this problem but it was frustrating. Nowdays I use a Zotac MAG as my core because it does just as well as the monster PC I was using, and uses a fraction of the power.

I know it's no help for you, I had many threads on here trying to get this working over a year ago, but if you do manage to get everything working then top marks to you, and please post something in the wiki so that others can follow it later if necessary.

Cheers.

I will punch you both in the dick.


In other news I have a new scheme, and that might fix it.

Out of curiosity... I need speakertests.
speaker-test -c2 -l1 -t sine -D plughw:0,3
and then replace the last with 0,7

Tell me if either fire. For shits and giggles try 0 on its own... this presumes your gt is card 0.
aplay -l (as root) to determine.

Also tell me what version you are on
cat /etc/asound/version

This is sexicism. How do you know they have one? Maybe they are female, and envy men for their little something extra. A little more sensitivity is appreciated. tstststs

Sometimes daddy drinks. I don't normally swear in forum.

If aplay -l is empty, see this post.
