Hi all,
the last three days I tried to get ALSA playing MIDI without OSS
emulation. I failed and I hope, that you can help me.
First, some information about my system
Linux 2.6.3
alsa-lib 1.0.2
alsa-utils 1.0.2
=== ~ ===
Card information from 'lspci -v':
00:08.0 Multimedia audio controller: ESS Technology ES1978 Maestro 2E (rev
10)
Subsystem: Compaq Computer Corporation: Unknown device b112
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11
I/O ports at 3000 [size=256]
Capabilities: [c0] Power Management version 2
=== ~ ===
>From my '/etc/modprobe.conf':
alias snd-card-0 snd-es1968
alias sound-slot-0 snd-es1968
=== ~ ===
My kernel's sound configuration:
CONFIG_SOUND=m
CONFIG_SND=m
CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER=m
CONFIG_SND_OSSEMUL=y
CONFIG_SND_MIXER_OSS=m
CONFIG_SND_PCM_OSS=m
CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER_OSS=y
CONFIG_SND_RTCTIMER=m
CONFIG_SND_VIRMIDI=m
CONFIG_SND_MPU401=m
CONFIG_SND_ES1968=m
=== ~ ===
Output of 'aconnect -o':
client 64: 'Rawmidi 0 - ESS ES1978 (Maestro 2E) MPU-401' [type=kernel]
0 'ESS ES1978 (Maestro 2E) MPU-401'
=== ~ ===
I can play play wave files (or other files) without any problems using
directly the ALSA interface. But I can play MIDIs just with the OSS
emulation - with native ALSA I just don't hear anything (but I don't get
errors - wow :))
I guess its just a very stupid configuration mistake and I hope you give
me a hint to find it.
Any help is appreciated.
Bye,
Oliver
