I lost my sound after installing OSS

[putu]

Hi after installing OSS ( Open Sound System ) and restart my system and then I lost my sound :cry:

I found my mixer icon in the system tray with " :!: " symbol

I've lost my sound :cry: :cry: :cry:

I've did this

# pkg_add http://www.4front-tech.com/release/o...-1006-i386.tbz
and then
bla....
bla....
bla.... ( I cannot remember what it is )

and reboot my system and then I cannot hear my start up sound anymore :cry:

and I try to remove OSS package but

# pkg_delete http://www.4front-tech.com/release/o...-1006-i386.tbz
pkg_delete: no such package 'oss-freebsd-v4.0-1006-i386.tbz' installed

Anyone can help me how is the right procedure to install OSS package ?

Or maybe just help me to get my sound back please :cry:

I cannot play my music anymore, and that's is killing me slowly :cry:

Help ! :cry:

Please look your own message.
You just need to do pkg_delete oss-freebsd-v4.0-1006-i386 and
you will get a read of your package.

You didn't install package www://bla bla That was a web address.

Just to make sure check your /var/db/pkg for the list of packages
You should see oss-freebsd-v4.0-1006-i386 or oss-freebsd-v4.0-1006

Why did you want to use OSS if you had sound?

The reason you do not hear the sound might be one of the following

1. You a missing system files as the PC-BSD is shipped only with binaries
(Probably not the reason because OSS should not install without system three)

2. You have to add oss_enable="YES" into your /etc/rc.conf file and reboot

3. Your audio card is not recognized.
what is
$oss-info

Show me your

$oss-test

what is dmesg?


4. Some application is blocking your audio card.


5. Application you are using is not properly configured to use OSS.


If you use OSS you should compile it from the ports not take binaries from the idiotic website (unless you do know what are you doing)!


Let me know what is going on.

OSS is now included in 1.4. If you want to try it without the headaches, download 1.4RC or the latest snapshot

Yes that's working and after remove OSS and restart my system, I got my sound back

Why did you want to use OSS if you had sound?

The default mixer doesn't have sound equalizer.

2. You have to add oss_enable="YES" into your /etc/rc.conf file and reboot

But I didn't ops:

4. Some application is blocking your audio card.

Yes it's the OSS it self which is blocking

If you use OSS you should compile it from the ports not take binaries from the idiotic website (unless you do know what are you doing)!

Cause I didn't see it at my /usr/ports/multimedia folder. or perhaps in different folder :?: :?
