Firstly, you should be using the ALSA api and not the OSS one.
Secondly, you cannot increase the hardware size, it is a hardware
limitation for that card.
The card has up to 8 periods, with a max length for each period.
So, instead of using 2 periods, try using 8. You will then get 4 times
the buffer size. periods and buffer size are all set using the ALSA api.

Re: [Alsa-user] BUFFER SIZE HELP! SoundBlaster Audigy SE SB0570 alsa-driver-1.0 .11 snd-ca0106
Hello,
Just for my information, it's very important for me, to understand if it's
possible to increase the buffer size up to 65536.
And understand, if the limitation is due to the driver or hardware sound
card.
Sometime, depend which computer is used, i have 65536 (intel ICH5 intel8x0)
For my application i need 65536, i want to buy a sound card with 65536, how
i can know if this value is possible before
buying the sound card.
for your information, i use API ALSA, excuse me for the code.
Bests Regards
Thank's a lot lot lot :)

An ALSA buffer size of 65536 means it contains 65536 frames, or for a mono stream, 65536 samples, that even at 48000Hz audio, is more than one second of buffer. You should write your application so that it works with all sound cards, just like any other Linux sound application. James - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

[Alsa-user] MCP51 headphone issues
Hi, folks... I'm new here, and I'm wondering if someone can possibly help me with a little problem I'm having. I just recently got a new Compaq Presario V3010US laptop, which has an nForce chipset (not exactly sure which one, but lspci shows it as an MCP51 HDA controller). I've been trying my best to get my headphones working with it, but so far I've had absolutely no success - even with the newest version of ALSA installed. If someone could help me with editing config files or changing settings to possibly enable the headphone jack on my laptop, I'd really appreciate it... at this point, with the exception of certain games, headphone support is the only thing I need to boot into Windows for.

Re: [Alsa-user] alsa-driver-1.0.11rc5 on SuSE won't compile
The distro is SuSE 8.3 and the kernel 2.6.7 I think. Run uname -r to know which kernel you are running and check at the kernel source version is exactly the same as the running kernel version or the kernel you want to compile alsa drivers for. uname -r prints 2.6.7. In alsa-driver-1.0.11rc5/SUPPORTED_KERNELS it says - Vanilla 2.6.16 or earlier - Vanilla 2.4.31 or earlier - Vanilla 2.2.26 or earlier It's not guaranteed that they work with any newer version than above or modified kernels by distributors. By those facts alone it's supposed to be working. Why don't the kernel modules compile correctly? What's with the dma-mapping? The compilation fail just as entering the sources. Have you compiled and installed you own kernel, or jusr run a make modules_prepare? I don't know if Suse can have at the same time both the in kernel alsa drivers and the drivers from alsa. Debian can but gentoo cannot. So you have to check this, and if not sure, compile your own kernel with only Device Drivers --- Sound --- M Sound card support Open Sound System --- Open Sound System (DEPRECATED) (Move one step back and enter ALSA) Advanced Linux Sound Architecture --- Advanced Linux Sound Architecture The thing is, that I'm not allowed to install a new kernel or a new distro. Not as long as my boss is on holidays... There were ALSA drivers running as modules before - version 1.0.4, I think - so shouldn't it work again with newer ones? Among other flaws the 1.0.4 didn't give me a mixer for my card, so all system sounds played on 100%. What was worse was that I had only 2 output channels to work with, were I need 8 channels desperately. What about the alsa versions? Have you an enough recent alsalib to be able to compile the last alsa drivers? The alsa-lib-1.0.11rc5.tar should have been treated, according to the help-files on www.alsa-project.org, with 'configure' and 'make' AFTER the alsa-driver-1.0.11rc5.tar. Was that your question, or did you mean something else? Dominique Thank you for your comments though!

[Alsa-user] Stop and Start alsa in FC5
Since FC1 I've installed planetccrma stuff, and have an alsasound shellscript for stopping and starting Alsa in /etc/rc.d/init.d. there have been queries on the Fedora list as how to stop and start Alsa on FC5. I have 2 FC5 installs, one with planetccrma stuff installed, and has the alsasound shellscript, the other, non planetccrma install doesn't have the alsasound shellscript, and there does not seem to be a way to shutdown Alsa on this. Someone on the Fedora list suggested ainit, but that seems to be just dealing with dmix, and dsnoop, and stopping ainit has no effect. An audio app using Alsa just keeps on playing. I know Lee's using Ubuntu, and as it's basically Debian, you can stop and start Alsa in it, but is anyone here using FC5, and may have some answer as to why, on the face of it, there appears no way of stopping Alsa, and restarting it? On bootup on my FC + planetccrma installs I get text showing the Alsa components being loaded, but the non planetccrma FC5 shows nothing to do with Alsa, and yet alsa works ok. This is only an academic question, but it would be nice to find and answer to it. Nigel. Sound card: Ensoniq (ens1371) - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

Re: [Alsa-user] No sound on new notebook
Can anyone help? I'm out of ideas. Chris On Mon, 2006-08-21 at 12:12 -0400, Chris O'Regan wrote: I'm trying to get the sound to work on my new Gateway MX3410 notebook. I've installed Gentoo and followed the instructions on their site for setting up ALSA. Alsaconf detects my card and the drivers load, but there is no sound.

No errors from madplay, but no music either. KDE no longer complains about the sound system at startup, but no sound there either. I've tried the drivers that came with kernel (2.6.17-gentoo-r4; 1.0.11rc4) as well as the latest stable drivers (1.0.11). I don't seem to have many mixer controls: Output: Master (unmuted, 100%); PCM (100%); Capture Mux (0%) Input: Capture (off, 0%); Capture Mux (on, 0%) Switches: IEC958 (off); Input Source (Front Mic) I've played with these setting to no avail. Also, my notebook has an output for headphones, but there is no control for this; is that normal? There's no sound from the headphones either. Some information is listed below.
