Hi all, First of all, many thanks to everyone on these lists; your friendly responses more than compensated for the lack of machine-specific Linux/Alpha docs (compared to i386/PPC).
Anyhow, I'm wondering if any Miata users have had luck getting sound working with a late 2.4 kernel (particularly 2.4.18). I've had sound working on a Debian 2.2 / 2.2.19 box using the docs at: http://members.brabant.chello.nl/~s.vandereijk/miata.html This consists of enabling the following modules: CONFIG_SOUND=m CONFIG_SOUND_OSS=m CONFIG_SOUND_ADLIB=m CONFIG_SOUND_SB=m CONFIG_SOUND_YM3812=m and loading them with proper arguments for int, io, dma, etc. On 2.4.18 however, I'm getting an error in the modules portion of the build (using make-kpkg): ------------------------------------ make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18/arch/alpha/math-emu' cd /usr/src/linux/debian/tmp-image/lib/modules/2.4.18; \ mkdir -p pcmcia; \ find kernel -path '*/pcmcia/*' -name '*.o' | xargs -i -r ln -sf ../{} pcmcia if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map -b /usr/src/linux/debi an/tmp-image -r 2.4.18; fi depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /usr/src/linux/debian/tmp-image/lib/modules/2. 4.18/kernel/drivers/sound/sound.o depmod: plat_node_data make[2]: *** [_modinst_post] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18' make[1]: *** [real_stamp_image] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18' dove:/usr/src/linux# -------------------------------------------- I also tried dispensing with the standard OSS modules and apt-got the alsa-source package. Building it (using make-kpkg --revision XXX modules_image) following the instructions supplied yielded: ------------------------------------------- gcc -DALSA_BUILD -D__KERNEL__ -O2 -fno-strength-reduce -mno-fp-regs -ffixed-8 -mcpu=ev5 -DLINUX -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -I/usr/sr c/linux/include -I.. -c -o isadma.o isadma.c {standard input}: Assembler messages: {standard input}:38: Error: macro requires $at register while noat in effect <ad nauseum, repeated 36 times> make[1]: *** [isadma.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/kernel' make: *** [compile] Error 1 ------------------------------------------- Very nice :-/ Not being a developer, where should I start? Is sound broken (for the time being) with Miata on 2.4.18? Many thanks in advance for any suggestions, sousa __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
