Hi there,
I plan already some time to give the ALSA project a try. Thi is, because
OSS in real in NOSS ( Not Open Sound System ;o)
So hookay,
Lasy weekend I've tied to install ALSA due to the Alsa-sound-mini-HOWTO
and the INSTALL in the driver source tree.
... no luck :o( ...
Here are my systemm parameters>
OS: i686-pc-linux-gnu
kernel: 2.4.16
kerneld support not in use
devfs active
library: glibc-2.2.4
compiler: gcc-2.95.3 ( patched for glibc-2.2.x )
soundcard: SoundBlaster PCI 64, ( ens1370 )
ALSA-driver: 0.5.12a
ALSA-libs: 0.5.10b
ALSA-utils: 0.5.10
Configuration for ALSA-driver:
# ./configure --with-debug=none --with-isapnp=no \
> --with-oss=yes
My devfsd contains:
LOOKUP snd MODLOAD ACTION snd
REGISTER sound/.* PERMISSIONS root.root 660
REGISTER snd/.* PERMISSIONS root.root 660
The HOWTO says to load the module `snd-card-audiopci', but this module
doesn't exist, so I load the module `snd-card-ens1370'.

As you see I get a lot of empty files in `/proc/asound/cards'.
By the way: If I load soundcore before snd-card-ens1370 I get
soundcore 3344 0 [snd]
from lsmod; If I don't load soundcore, I get
soundcore 3344 2 [snd]
from `lsmod' after loading snd-card-ens1370.
In this approach I included soundcore and ens1370 as modules in the
kernel config, and I've removed the ens1370.o after `make
modules_install'.
So far, so good. I made a kernel recompile with sound support compiled
into the kernel without any soundcard as says the HOWTO. Then I rebuilt
the driver with full debug.
Here are the results:
After the `modprobe snd-card-ens1370' I get from the syslog:
(none) kernel: PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 00:08.0
... that's all. From here on all is as described above.
.. whooooo ... trying insmod ...

Turning kmod on, and adding:
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-card-ens1370
#
# (n)OSS - OSS/FREE portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
to modules.conf doesn't change anything.
Here are the contents of the files in /proc/asound:
./pcm

00-01: ES1370/2 : ES1370 DAC1 : playback 1

here? )

The /proc/devices contains:
14 sound
116 alsa
As we can't expect in any other kind `amixer' outputs:
The ALSA sound driver was not detected in this system.
Any clue???
Thanks in advance
