Yep, I've had my Ensoniq Soundscape Vivo 90 setup (and working) since
RH 4.0. With RH 5.1, this is the first I've been able to use the
included sound modules. I wasn't able to get it setup using them as
loadable modules, but using insmod to preload them in /etc/rc.d/rc.local
does the trick. Here's what I use to get it setup:
# in /etc/rc.d/rc.local
insmod sound
insmod ad1848
insmod mpu401
insmod sscape io=0x534 dma=1 irq=5 mpu_io=0x320 mpu_irq=10
Adjust your irq, io, dma accordingly and you shouldn't have any problem.
Just to show it's setup, here's a cat of /dev/sndstat:
Sound Driver:3.5.4-960630
Kernel: Linux shrike 2.0.34 #4 Fri Jun 5 23:32:05 CDT 1998 i686
Config options: 0
Installed drivers:
Card config:
Audio devices:
0: SoundScape (AD1845)
Synth devices:
Midi devices:
0: SoundScape (MPU401)
Timers:
0: System clock
Mixers:
0: SoundScape (AD1845)
One thing I've not been able to get to work (ever) is the midi, but then
I don't really need it.
Good luck.
