[Alsa-user] SB16 no isapnp
Hardware: SB16 (4.13) no isapnp Kernels 2.6.8 and 2.4.27 (Debian, sarge) With OSS the following works: modprobe sb io=0x220 irq=7 mpu_io=0x330 dma=1 dma16=5 With ALSA I tried the following: modprobe snd-sb16 port=0x220 irq=7 mpu_port=0x330 dma8=1 dma16=5 but I get "no device found".

[Alsa-user] stumped: PCM capture only gets one channel
Greeting to the list, sorry for the bother if this is easy.
I'm bringing up a new system and I am stumped.
When I capture from the card with a live stereo input, the
wav file that gets created only has one channel modulated, the
other channel is zero/noise.
OS: Fedora 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp
Card/Chip: Ensoniq AudioPCI / TriTech TR28602
Alsa release: 1.0.10
MB: Asus P5P800
Typical capture invocation:
arecord -v -d 5 -t wav -f cd -D hw:2,0 test.wav
The verbose output looks ok (see below). If anyone can spot anything
and give me a pointer that would fix the problem, it would be most
appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark

[Alsa-user] nForce2 rear device
Hello, and merry christmas everyone!
I'm trying to use my 2 surround speakers as a simple stereo output and I get
this error :
$ aplay -Drear plop.wav
ALSA lib pcm.c:1969:(snd_pcm_open_conf) Invalid type for PCM rear definition
(id: rear, value: cards.pcm.rear)
aplay: main:544: audio open error: Invalid argument
Trying with -Dplug:rear results with exactly the same error.
Some information on my system :
$ cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [nForce2]: NFORCE - NVidia nForce2
NVidia nForce2 with ALC650F at 0xdb087000, irq 11
ALSA version :1.0.10
I obtain those results without any asoundrc...
As a workaround, I'm using
pcm.prear {
type plug
slave.pcm surround51
slave.channels 6
ttable.0.2 1
ttable.1.3 1
}
which works, but blocks the whole device. Should I hope for better ? If not,
shoudln't the rear device do that for me already ?
Thanks,
Bruno

If someone has actually made a Linux distro that Just Works for the masses (no editing text config files to get wireless or web browsing or cd burning or MP3 playing to work) then IMHO they can advertise all they want. Red Hat, SuSE, Ubuntu, and zillions of others have worked on this problem for YEARS and we're still not there. Lee --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Re: [Alsa-user] nForce2 rear device
> which works, but blocks the whole device. Should I hope for better ? Probably not, since the card doesn't do hardware mixing I suspect you can either play a single stereo source or a single 6-channel source. You could look into dmix, which should allow you to open the front and rear PCMs at the same time, and dmix would mix them into a single 6-channel source. Of course thanks to the wonderful ALSA configuration format this is easier said than done ;-) Cheers, Adam. --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

I mailed one of the guys there. Still trying to get the lowdown, but I did d/l the iso. The quirky part was when I asked the guy which distro it was based on and does he handle upgrades or are they user defined like synaptic etc., the repsonse was Tomahawk is not based on Debian RH etc. So it may be in the ballpark of Linspire-- pay as you go. I'm hoping to get clarification. More and more it looks like an "enterprise" venture, but hey, if a "license" cost a dollar a month and it actually worked, I might consider it. > > Red Hat, SuSE, Ubuntu, and zillions of others have worked on this > problem for YEARS and we're still not there. > > Lee > > > > --- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
