Midi is for musical instrument connections.  It is not for playing sound
on your computer.  That would be done by the wave support part of the
card instead.

Of course given it is an ati chipset laptop, it is probably going to
take a while to get proper support for the system under linux.  In
general, ati chips are just not well supported.

I would expect the driver to use, if any work yet, would be snd-atiixp
alsa driver.  The newer the kernel the better the chance of it working
is.  Try adding that to /etc/modules, so that it loads early in the boot
process.  alsamixer should work for unmuting master and wave and turning
up the volumes if it detects the chip.

sound-driver

2005-12-09 Thread Rob van Kraanen
Hi i have a Asus a7d laptop.
After some searching i found i have a dound-driver with a acore chipset, at 
least thats what i think.
I'm a newby as it comes to compiling drivers, but i got no errors and even in 
mij config i can see a device: "Midi through Midi Through Port-0 ALSE device"
But i hear nothing, anyone can help me?

regards

Rob

Thanks for the help.  It worked perfectly and after reboot the
sound was finally working (I switched from aRts to ALSA).  

Thanks,

Your source dir has to be fully configured and built (or a debian
kernel-headers package which keeps the relevant parts).

An unconfigured/cleaned source is no good for building against.

apt-get install kernel-headers-2.6.8-11-em64t-p4-smp I guess in this
case, and /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.6.8-11-em64t-p4-smp should contain
the right files to compile against.

Is the alsa in 2.6.8 too old to work with your card?

problem compiling sound driver

2005-06-29 Thread Ross Urban
Hello all,
  I was trying to compile an alsa driver for my realtek soundcard
(alc650) and during the ./configure step i'm getting the following
error message.  When I tunnel down to the directory it is saying
does not exist I get to /lib/modules/2.6.8-11-em64t-p4-smp. 
Source exists in the directory but source itself is not a directory, so
I cannot go any further.  I've checked my packages and it appears
that the kernel sources are installed.  Are they in a different
place?  Or is there another package that I could possibly be
missing.  Here's the error output I get when i run
./configure.  

checking for kernel version... The file /lib/modules/2.6.8-11-em64t-p4-smp/source/include/linux/version.h does not exist.
Please, install the package with full kernel sources for your distribution
or use --with-kernel=dir option to specify another directory with kernel
sources (default is /lib/modules/2.6.8-11-em64t-p4-smp/source).

Thanks,
Ross
