Re: [Alsa-devel] hdsp/firmware problem
the hdsp driver still seems to have problems with the new pci card. It's a little complicated for me to give exact information as the machine is in Rotterdam and I'm in Berlin. I got The following email from the sysadmin of the machine: i have an hdsp-9652 here that i haven't installed yet. it sounds as if need to do so and test it out, because i think it has the new firmware on it. RME sent me one because to develop a firmware flasher is not safe on the pure hdsp - a mistake will fry the h/w. apparently the hdsp-9652 is resistant to such mistakes. however, i can't do it today, that's for sure. i will ask RME though and see if they know of anything that i/we should know. --p --- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: FREE SSL Guide from Thawte are you planning your Web Server Security?

Re: [Alsa-devel] hdsp/firmware problem
Hi, the driver/interface works. The guy in Rotterdam tried the line outputs on the front (I realized that this might have been the reason 5 minutes after I posted my previous mail). Since the hdsp code reports firmware load failure there still might be something wrong, but the Multiface plays sound as it should :-). -- Orm Am Freitag, den 14.

Since the hdsp code reports firmware load failure there still might be something wrong, but the Multiface plays sound as it should :-). so it looks like it may just a need for a more lenient timeout check on the FIFO? Maybe. It's quite stupid as I can't really check it myself. -- Orm --- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: FREE SSL Guide from Thawte are you planning your Web Server Security?

[Alsa-devel] hdsp/firmware problem
Maybe an unneccesary and stupid remark, but are you sure that the line out will support headphones? Maybe you should try it with a regular amp. Gerard But I can't get any sound out of the box (use headphone in line out) and setting all channels to 30 in alsamixer. Probably because the firmware was not loaded correctly.

Re: [Alsa-devel] hdsp/firmware problem
got this additional Info from R'dam for those interested. Wasn't the warm boot corrected with the old firmware? no. it was connected with a bug in the driver that marcus fixed. on little-endian platforms we failed to write a terminating byte to the FIFO at the end of the firmware load. i believe that this patch is in CVS, but i haven't checked. i assume the R'dam system is using the latest code? --p --- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: FREE SSL Guide from Thawte are you planning your Web Server Security?
