Tiny/Micro v.3.8 & v.3.8.1 with alsa

Alsa is not loaded with intel hd audio.
Rollback to v.3.7 solve problem.

v3.8 and above uses busybox depmod. GNU depmod has been moved to extensions, depmod.tcz, and may be required by certain extensions, e.g., alsa.

Hello everybody,

I have the same problem with tc 3.8.1 and alsa and donĀ“t want to switch back to tc.3.7. Are there any tricks to get alsa to work with tc 3.8?

Greetings, organharry

I just checked the depmod.tcz in the repository and it was missing it's startup script.
I have uploaded the correction. Alsa requires depmod.tcz, alsa.tcz.dep file has also been adjusted to indicate such.

Hi roberts
I just called up AppBrowser. When I clicked on the Size tab for Alsa.tcz it reports  Error, not found
for the  depmod.tcz  entry.

Thanks Rich. Should be a depmod.tcz.tree file now, which provides the size info.

Hi roberts
I'm afraid I found two more.  alsa-oss.tcz  and  alsa-plugins.tcz  both report the same error for
alsa-config.tcz

I have repopulated the whole forest. Should not be any missing trees. Thanks again for the heads up.

Hi roberts
Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but the size tab reports   Error, not found   for
alsa-driver-2.6.33.3-tinycore.tcz   and   depmod.tcz   for the alsa extensions.

Perhaps you are using a mirror? Anyway this has nothing to do with the base and therefore has drifted off topic. If needed it should be continued in the extension area of the forum. To recap: The base now uses busybox depmod applet and the full gnu depmod, which may be required (alsa), is available as the extension, depmod.tcz.
