Description Stefan Brüns 2005-09-12 16:42:12 UTC 
On my laptop, there is no module for sequencer loaded, 
as /proc/asound/seq/drivers is empty. 
 
loading snd-seq-dummy helps 
 
Driver: intel_8x0 
 
lspci -v 
00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801CA/CAM AC'97 Audio 
Controller (rev 02) 
        Subsystem: Cirrus Logic Crystal WMD Audio Codec 
lspci -vn 
00:1f.5 Class 0401: 8086:2485 (rev 02) 
        Subsystem: 1013:5959
Comment 1 Takashi Iwai 2005-09-12 19:02:27 UTC 
Fixed on rc3.
snd-seq module is loaded in alsasound init script when $LOAD_SEQUENCER=yes.
Comment 2 Stefan Brüns 2005-09-15 17:55:27 UTC 
Sorry, no, it is not ...    
after reboot:    
   
$> ls -la /proc/asound/seq/    
insgesamt 0    
dr-xr-xr-x  2 root root 0 2005-09-15 19:42 .    
dr-xr-xr-x  5 root root 0 2005-09-15 19:42 ..    
   
Please have a look at the alsasound script:   
   
---   
load_sequencer() {   
  if [ x"$LOAD_SEQUENCER" = xyes -a -r /proc/asound/seq/drivers ];  
then   
  ...  
  fi  
}  
   
---   
   
I think this has to be   
if [ x"$LOAD_SEQUENCER" = xyes ]; then /sbin/modprobe snd-seq;   
  if [ -r /proc/asound/seq/drivers ]; then   
  ...   
  fi   
fi   
--   
/proc/asound/seq/drivers only comes into existence after loading  
snd-seq
Comment 3 Takashi Iwai 2005-09-15 19:24:32 UTC 
You are looking at a wrong version.  It was fixed.
Comment 4 Stefan Brüns 2005-09-16 01:28:46 UTC 
In RC1 it is not fixed 
$> rpm -qf /etc/init.d/alsasound 
alsa-1.0.9-21
