-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- I have just finished recompiling the kernel (2.0.29, Debian 1.3) to include the awe-drv. This worked quite well and the kernel booted properly. My AWE32 sound card works as it did before (ie. cat foo.au >/dev/audio plays foo.au). However, the AWE synth device seems to be missing. Documentation suggests one of three ways to configure the PnP card: - Initialize the card via ISA PnP tools, and load the sound module. - Initialize the card on DOS, and load linux by loadlin.exe - Use PnP driver (for Linux-2.0.x)
Do I need to install the PnP driver and recompile the kernel again? It seems to me that I should see some boot-time error messages if the awedrv can't detect my AWE32 card (I don't see any error messages so I am assuming, perhaps incorrectly, that the PnP driver is included in the kernel source). The reason I assume that the AWE synth device is missing is from the following output terrapin:~$ sfxload -i synthgm.sbk No AWE synth device is found terrapin:~$ terrapin:~$ sfxtest -I No AWE synth device is found terrapin:~$ Any ideas what I have done wrong? Any help is gratefully appreciated. kernel config script below Cheers, Colin. -- Colin R.
