SB16 i386 Squeeze Scavenger hunt

2012-05-09 Thread Martin McCormick
Ah, the brave new world of separate firmware. These
questions are based on ignorance on my part and google searches
that turn up nothing or stuff that doesn't work.

Stuff that Doesn't Work

A web site reports to have sb16 firmware in a Redhat
Package Manager .rpm package that it says will work on debian
and a bunch of other distributions. Maybe it does, but alien
bombs when trying to convert the .rpm in to a .deb.

Stuff I Don't yet Understand.

Lots of things, but specifically, my old lenny backups do
have the kernel modules for SB16 cards. Basically, what is the
best way to end up with workable firmware in the
/lib/firmware/sb tree?

Do the correct files exist somewhere in the old backup
or do I need to do a make on a certain directory to produce
compiled modules that can be copied in to /lib/firmware?

Thank you.

Martin McCormick

I used to use the firmware from a Knoppix CD/DVD, if I couldn't find it easily 
elsewhere.

SB16 Creative pnp desconfigura no boot

2007-07-27 Thread debian
Fala galera!

Tenho uma placa de som SB16 Creative Vi BRA16x pnp (é ISA e o chip é CTL1745) no
meu Debian, consigo configurar via alsaconf sem problemas, mas toda vez que
reinicio o Pc recebo a seguinte mensagem:

Sound server informational message:
Error while initializing the sound driver:
device /dev/dsp can't be opened (No such file or directory)
The sound server will continue, using the null output device.


Novamente alsaconf e tudo volta ao normal...

Existe algum comandao para listar ISA?

Já dei acesso ao usuário que utilizo no /dev/dsp...memos assim continua.

Ah...depois do alsaconf tbm tenho que setar o dispositivo no Centro de Controle
do KDE.

Alguem sabe onde posso configurar isso de uma vez por todas?

Valeu e aguardo,

Daniel

Mittlerweile funktioniert alles mit Ausnahme des Sounds...

Die Karte ist eine SB16 Vibra und alsacfg hat sie auch gefunden

Kann mir hier jemand weiterhelfen?

(solved) ISA sb16 problem

2006-05-06 Thread Serena Cantor
I have complained my sb16 does not work on sarge
several times on the list.

Now it is solved on my own!

The problem is with isa-pnp module, it fails to assist
sb module in detecting my card. The solution is to
disable isa-pnp:

isa-pnp isapnp_disable=1 

sound
uart401
sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330

Salut Serena,

do you have tried to load the modules one by one?

put following lines in your

+---[ '/etc/modules' ]--
| 
| insmod soundcore
| insmod sound
| insmod sb_lib
| insmod sb
| insmod uart401
+---

sb maybe with your parameters...

problem with ISA SB16 sound card

2006-03-12 Thread Serena Cantor
  The problem is with kernel configuration, I
believe, because kernel 2.4 (self compiled, not
bf24)in woody work well with my sb16. The commands
below can load correctly in kernel 2.0, 2.2 and 2.4 in
woody:

modprobe sound
insmod uart401
insmod sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330

but sarge complains:

isapnp: Scanning for PnP cards...
isapnp: SB audio device quirk - increasing port range
isapnp: Card 'Creative SB16 PnP'
isapnp: 1 Plug  Play card detected total

my sb16 works with my *foolish* method

2006-03-12 Thread Serena Cantor
I have complain sb16 not working several times on the
list, now I manage to solve it on my own, it works!!!
The method is a little foolish, I'd like to seek your
advice. Below is my foolish method:

1, compile 2.4.27, but unable to use newly-compiled
kernel, (this is another question)

2,under stock kernel(2.4.27-2-386), use sb module
compiled in the first step:

modprobe sound
insmod uart401
cd /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/drivers/sound
insmod -f ./sb_lib.o
insmod -f ./sb.o io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5

How to standard+ize the procedure? how to improve it?

Hi Serena,
I would guess you could post your /etc/modules
I think they are  'insmod'd in order.
Also, I think you can setup kernel module options in /etc/modules.conf

problem with ISA SB16 sound card

2006-03-10 Thread Serena Cantor

sarge's default kernel can't use my SB16!

I have used my SB16 ever since kernel 2.0, 2.2, and
2.4 in woody. They all work. But with sarge's kernel
2.4, it can't work. When I modprobe sb, it says:

isapnp: Scanning for PnP cards...
isapnp: SB audio device quirk - increasing port range
isapnp: Card 'Creative SB16 PnP'
isapnp: 1 Plug  Play card detected total

question about sb16 module

2006-03-01 Thread sqrt3

I have woody and ISA non-PnP SB16 card, but the bf24
kernel of woody can't use it. It seems to me that bf24
try to use ISA PnP module before loading sb16 module.

This is ridiculous, SB16 has both PnP and non-PnP
versions!

How can I remove such dependcy? I read depmod manual,
edit /lib/modules/*/modules.dep, it does not work!

Hi Paul,
would sndconf (did I rememebr that utils name?) help? If he is using

Not familiar with that.  What I'm talking about is actually passing options to 
the kernel at the time the sb16 module gets inserted.  You need io= irq= and 
one other argument (IIRC, it's been 10 years since I dealt with non-PnP 
hardware) to get the job done with that card.

Though PCI is so common and a quality card like the SB Live 128 are as cheap 
as free if you look in the right places, and unlike the SB16, the Live 128 
can play more than one sound at once.  That might be a better long-term 
solution.

Hallo,
ich habe ein kleines Problem mit einer SB16 (CT2230) in einem älteren
Rechner. Wenn ich das OSS Modul sb.ko lade (mit irq=5 io=0x220 dma=1
dma16=5), dann geht alles wunderbar. Nun hätte ich aber gerne ALSA
verwendet, also neugestartet/rmmod und versucht snd-sb16.ko zu laden
(mit irq=5 port=0x220 dma8=1 dma16=5), aber er sagt immer, er habe keine
Karte gefunden. - Ich versteh' das nicht, was mache ich falsch?
System: Debian sarge, kernel 2.6.7 (debian quellen,neukompiliert, SMP
aktiviert, als Proz: 586MMX). Es handelt sich um ein GA-586DX mit 2
Pentium 200MMX ... ;-)
Kann es mit dem SMP Zeug zu tun haben? Aber warum geht dann OSS?

Note que ela e conjunta com o modem, que nao funciona em gnu/linux.
Alias esta historia do modem e a mais cabeluda que ja vi[1]: Um dia eu
capturei uma mensagem de um tal de All Stone, funcionario da HP
francesa, que estava ajudando a mandrake. Nesta mensagem constava um
binario para este conjunto de som/modem da ESS compilado para o kernel
2.4.18 da mandrake, que tinha o sufixo -6mdk. ENtao tentei por o modem
pra funcionar e nao rolou porque o modulo exigia o kernel da mandrake.
ENtao eu gerei uma compilacao do kernel com o tal sufixo -6mdk e
instalei, e o FDP do modulo funcionou MAs ai eu cai na besteira de
pedir os fontes do modulo e todo mundo fingiu que ele nunca existiu, de
forma que algumas pessoas ate acham que eu inventei essa historia.

TEnho ainda os binarios aqui, se alguem quiser fazer engenharia reversa
... De minha parte, jurei NUNCA mais comprar nada que venha o hardware
da ESS, e todo funcionario da HP ligado ao SL que encontro eu toco no
assunto falando tipo qual e a da hp, ta do lado do SL ou nao???

 Na  verdade não  é bem  o que  eu disse  antes, depende  do hardware  sim. A
 questão sobre o 'non-blocking' refere-se ao  modo de como o aplicativo agirá
 caso não  possa tocar o  som simultaneamente,  pode tanto esperar  numa fila
 (padrão) como retornar um erro de dispositivo ocupado.
 
 A sua placa deve ser capaz de processar mais de um canal por vez, assim como
 a minha (SB Live!). Já a do meu  irmão (via82xx), só se houver uma camada de
 software para fazer a mixagem (dmix).

Isso eu nao sei, pois nao saco disso. Se voce conseguir identificar

 Cheguei a  cogitar que  dependia do  hardware (isto é,  a placa  deveria ser
 capaz de fazer o mixer por si só), mas a explicação no FAQ foi bem enfática,
 reafirmando que agora o uso de filas é padrão.

Isso nao deve ser mesmo, pois minha placa de som e pra la de vagabunda!

 Outra  possibilidade  do  seu  som  estar saindo  simultaneamente  é  se  os
 aplicativos já estiverem em acordo com o alsa1x. Mas a versão que testei era
 a última, a mais recente até ontem, por isso não acredito nessa hipótese.

Como disse, nao fiz nada de especial. Antes de compor esta mensagem fiz
questao de testar: rodei uma musica no XMMS e mandei na linha de comando

Leandro A. F. Pereira [EMAIL PROTECTED] escreveu:

   Tenho uma AWE32, ISA PnP. Funciona legal o ALSA no Linux 2.6.0-test2, 
 tanto PCM
 quanto sequencer. Só tem duas coisas que estão quase me fazendo voltar para o
 bom e velho OSS:
 
   - Se o dispositivo de som está sendo utilizado, o ALSA deixa outros 
 processos
 usá-lo normalmente -- parece que coloca tudo numa fila, e quando ele é 
 liberado,
 tudo que estava nessa fila é tocado. Por exemplo, se estou com o xmms e o licq
 aberto, tocando uma MP3, e chega alguma mensagem no ICQ, eu não ouço o 
 Uh-Oh.
 É só fechar o xmms ou parar a música e ouço o som. Às vezes ouço inúmeros
 Uh-Oh em seqüência.

Leandro, sou  obrigado a  reabrir este  thread porque  na minha  resposta eu
dizia que a arquitetura ALSA permitia de forma automática a execução de sons
simultâneos. De fato estava certo, mas acredito  que a partir da versão 1.0,
o ALSA  passou a seguir um novo  modelo,  que  está sendo considerado padrão
(não só pelo ALSA, mas os drivers mais novos de placa de som, etc).

Descobri isso quando  instalei o quérnel 2.6.0 (alsa 1.x)  na máquina do meu
irmão, e fiquei surpreso (decepcionado?) com a impossibilidade de tocar sons
simultaneamente. A minha máquina  ainda continua com o  alsa antigo (quérnel
2.4 e ALSA 0.9.8) e consegue  trabalhar perfeitamente com sons executados ao
mesmo tempo.

Este  fato me  intrigou, até  quando achei  um FAQ  em '/usr/share/doc/alsa'
dizendo exatamente sobre isso:


  Q: When I play something and I try to play something other the second attempt
 will not fail but instead it hangs waiting for the completion of the first
 sound.
  A: This is definitely the standard behaviour as described in many official
 documents that now ALSA follows. There is no reasons to complain about that
 for the following reasons:
 - it's the right (standard) way
 - the application that want a different behaviour can open the device in 
   O_NONBLOCK mode
 - all modern OSS drivers in mainstream kernel (cmpci, es1370, es1371,
   esssolo1, maestro, sonicvibes, vwsnd) works in the same ways and the 
   others have to be intended buggy
 - we want you ask to broken applications author to fix them ;-)


O  que  entendi   é  que  ainda  é  possível  ter   esta  característica  em
funcionamento,  mas isto  agora fica  a cargo  dos desenvolvedores,  podendo
optar em abrir o dispositivo de  som de forma exclusiva ou não (NONBLOCKING,
do tipo open(/dev/dsp, O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK)).

Por exemplo, já  existe um patch para  o mplayer (saída ALSA)  que permite o
usuário  especificar  o modo  de  abertura  do  dispositivo -  por  exemplo,
especificando na linha de comando: mplayer -ao alsa1x:noblock.

Mas ainda estou bastante confuso sobre isto, alguns pontos são:

1 -  a possibilidade  de gerenciar  sons simultâneos, além  de contar  com o
desenvolver, precisa que o *hardware* seja capaz de executá-lo, ou o mixer
(merge) pode ser feito via software (ALSA) e então entregue à placa de som?

2 -  como é de  fato esta relação de  exclusividade?!? Isto é, duas  ou mais
aplicações podem disparar sons ao mesmo  tempo se e somente se estas abriram
o dispositivo com a máscara O_NONBLOCK?

3 - qual a justificativa para a adoção deste novo padrão?


   - É lento! Lento! Lento! Um DivX que tocava normalmente com OSS, fica 
 lerdão
 com o ALSA. Se desligar o som, fica perfeito. Se uso somente OSS (sem emulação
 do ALSA), fica melhor ainda.

Pois é, na máquina do meu irmão (Duron 1GHz, 380MB RAM, via68xx), o som ALSA
+ quérnel 2.6.0 pipocava com uma freqüência razoável. Bastava por exemplo um
uso  mais  intenso no  HD  (tipo  uma descompactação  de  pacotes)  e o  som
literalmente parava. Nem mesmo um 'renice -19' na aplicação de som conseguia
elimitar este incômodo.

Não cheguei a fazer uma comparação mais precisa com o quérnel 2.4.X, mas das
vezes que rodei o Kurumin nesta máquina não cheguei a notar este pipocamento.

Hmmm... o que dá a saída: 'dpkg -l  | grep alsa' ? Além disso está certo que
não tem nenhum servidor de som rodando não, tipo 'esd', 'arts'?

Cheguei a  cogitar que  dependia do  hardware (isto é,  a placa  deveria ser
capaz de fazer o mixer por si só), mas a explicação no FAQ foi bem enfática,
reafirmando que agora o uso de filas é padrão.

Outra  possibilidade  do  seu  som  estar saindo  simultaneamente  é  se  os
aplicativos já estiverem em acordo com o alsa1x. Mas a versão que testei era
a última, a mais recente até ontem, por isso não acredito nessa hipótese.

  Leandro, sou  obrigado a  reabrir este  thread porque  na minha  resposta eu
  dizia que a arquitetura ALSA permitia de forma automática a execução de sons
  simultâneos. De fato estava certo, mas acredito  que a partir da versão 1.0,
  o ALSA  passou a seguir um novo  modelo,  que  está sendo considerado padrão
  (não só pelo ALSA, mas os drivers mais novos de placa de som, etc).
  
  Descobri isso quando  instalei o quérnel 2.6.0 (alsa 1.x)  na máquina do meu
  irmão, e fiquei surpreso (decepcionado?) com a impossibilidade de tocar sons
  simultaneamente. A minha máquina  ainda continua com o  alsa antigo (quérnel
  2.4 e ALSA 0.9.8) e consegue  trabalhar perfeitamente com sons executados ao
  mesmo tempo.

 OBS: Nao fiz nada de especial na compilacao do kernel!

Depois de algum tempo tentando e seguindo as dicas, compilei o alsa como
módulo e agora uso ele ao invés do OSS, notei a melhora considerável na
execusão dos meus aplicativos sonoros. :-) Aproveitei para fazer o teste
de sons simultaneo e comigo não funcionou, tenho a mesma opinião do

E mais uma coisa, aquela opção  non-block do ALSA é furada. Descobri que
o alsaplay (aplay) tem  a opção '-N' que é para abrir  o dispositivo de modo
não exclusivo. Fiz o teste, o resultado é que em vez de colocar o som em uma
fila, ele  diz que o  dispositivo está ocupado, mesmo  com a opção  '-N' nos
dois sons simultâneos.

Uma conclusão é certa: o ALSA  não trabalha com a mixagem via software. Pode
ser que o som simultâneo (através do non-blocking) funcione com uma placa de
som  capaz  de tal. A  placa  testada  é  simples,  uma onboard  via82xx  da
placa-mãe K7 VTA-Pro.

For `Junior [EMAIL PROTECTED]' 
On Sunday, 27 July 2003 (23:28):

 Problema resolvido. Eu compilei como módulo o suporte ao sb via OSS,
 como fazia no antigo 2.4.x. Acho que eu estava fazendo baianada no
 novo modutils e ele não achava os módulos. :)
 
 Agora e' so' esperar para usar o novo driver da alsa, talvez ele sim
 possua alguns bugs.
 

Tenho uma AWE32, ISA PnP. Funciona legal o ALSA no Linux 2.6.0-test2, 
tanto PCM
quanto sequencer. Só tem duas coisas que estão quase me fazendo voltar para o
bom e velho OSS:

- Se o dispositivo de som está sendo utilizado, o ALSA deixa outros

É só fechar o xmms ou parar a música e ouço o som. Às vezes ouço inúmeros

- É lento! Lento! Lento! Um DivX que tocava normalmente com OSS, fica 
lerdão
com o ALSA. Se desligar o som, fica perfeito. Se uso somente OSS (sem emulação
do ALSA), fica melhor ainda.

A única coisa que está me segurando para voltar ao OSS é o driver para 
a AWE
(OSS) do 2.6.0 não está compilando. E o 2.4.x é muito instável na minha

Tem alguma coisa errada aí, e certamente não é com a arquitetura ALSA. Eu a uso

Uso uma sb16 ISA, e no Windows 2000 eu podia ouvir MP3, ouvir o som do
ICQ, enfim, ela ficava multitarefa :-)

Há alguma de ativar isso no linux? Se nao me engano, esse recurso se
chama full duplex, nao tenho certeza.

Será que os famosos sound daemons fazem isso?

Full duplex é quando é possível gravar e reproduzir ao mesmo tempo. Mas não
está relacionado com  múltiplas reproduções simultâneas. E o full duplex é mais
'hardware', ou seja, a placa tem que suportar. Já o tocar simultâneo é mais uma
questão de software, o driver de som tem que mesclar as origens e enviá-las ao
hardware.

A ativação deste recurso geralmente é transparente ao usuário. Por padrão o
driver ALSA faz assim. Sua placa foi reconhecida corretamente?

 Será que os famosos sound daemons fazem isso?

O que chama de 'sound daemon' exatamente?

Já havia tentado o ALSA sobre o kernel 2.4.x?

Sei lá em Leandro. Eu tinha um CMI8736 onboard que funcionava de maneira
horrivel com o OSS, começei a usar ALSA, e blz, tanto que hj tenho uma
Live...
Acho que isso é algum problema relacionado diretamente ao kernel, pq
utilizo o ALSA aqui numa boa, e acho muitas vezes melhor que o OSS
original...
Quando a tocar no xmms e outros sons ficarem a espera, utilize um daemon de

Olá. Até agora não tive nenhum problema (exceto o da placa de som, que
foi resolvido) com o novo kernel. O menuconfig está muito mais
organizado, e mais rápido. A compilação está mais limpa, somente aparece
uma linha para cada .o compilado, e um [M] se está sendo compilado como
módulo.

Compilei tranquilamente, e como uso Woody, minha primeira compilação foi
com o mínimo possível de opções (só o básico), e compilei tudo
estaticamente, sem uso de módulos, pois deveria atualizar o modprobe,
insmod, etc, e eu não queria fazer isso sabendo que não poderia
conseguir nem carregar o kernel novo, e poderia precisar voltar ao
2.4.

Os recursos de PnP melhoraram bastante, e o kernel detectou minha placa
de som e de rede perfeitamente. Eu compilei com a opção de Kernel
Preemptivo, mas, embora tenha notado uma boa melhora no tempo de
resposta do X, ainda há uns enroscos, como o XMMS dar umas pausadas
(skips).

Quanto vi que tudo estava OK, recompilei-a com todos os módulos que
preciso, atualizei o init-modules, e estou usando há alguns dias (o
test1) e o test2 desde que saiu.

Desabilitei o modo Preemptivo, e estou rodando-o tranquilamente aqui.
Neste período fiz um pequeno crash-test em um programa aqui para
testar uns lockfiles, e minha máquina ficou horas com centenas de
processos simultâneos, sem sinal de instabilidade.

Em geral, está mais rápido. Tem bastante coisa nova, mas alguns módulos
ainda precisam ser trabalhados, mas os drivers que eu preciso estão
funcionando perfeitamente.

Com os novos threads, scheduler, e ainda usando o modo Preemptivo, eu
notei um *grande* aumento de performance em aplicativos como o Mozilla
(responde mais rápido), squid, KDE (trocar de desktops virtuais fica
mais rápido e não há aquela sensação de ver a tela ser pintada), e uso
de outros aplicativos enquanto estou compilando, compactando, ou movendo
arquivos pesados de um disco para o outro.

Quem quiser brincar um pouco, vá em frente. Afinal, quanto mais gente
testar, mais bugs vão aparecer, e o 2.6.0 vai vir mais rapidamente e
mais estável :-)

Ola.

Acabei de instalar o linux 2.6.0-test2 no meu Debian woody. Aparentemente tudo
esta OK, mas a minha sound blaster 16 (sim, e dai? :) nao esta sendo detectada
corretamente.

Tentei com os drivers da ALSA, e tambem com os modulos OSS.

O problema e que o pnpdump nao me mostra nada, pois talvez isso possa
ser uma questao de trocar irq ou dma.

No dmesg, surge este trecho:

Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 0.9.4 (Mon Jun 09 12:01:18 
2003 UTC).
pnp: the driver 'sb16' has been registered
pnp: the driver 'sb16' has been unregistered
ALSA device list:
  No soundcards found.

A placa e ISA.

Alguem tem alguma sugestao? Ou pelo menos sabe como devo proceder para
achar os devidos IRQ's, DMA's, etc da placa, e tentar passar os
parametros para o kernel?

Nos kernels 2.4.x era so carregar o modulo sb e estava tudo pronto.

Tentei com modulos e agora tentei compilar direto no kernel, mas nada.

Ah, ces petits jeunes qui n'ont pas connu la joie de l'utilisation des
configurations manuelles !

Il n'y a pas 36 solutions : il faut le faire à la mimine...

1) tu repères toutes les IRQ et IO des périphériques « automatiques »
(PCI, AGP) pour ne pas les emprunter par mégarde (cat /proc, lspci sont
des amis...).

2) Tu vérifies que la carte ISA n'est pas trop ancienne, i.e. que l'on
peut lui allouer dynamiquement adresses et IRQ ou bien logiciellement.
Sinon, il y a des cavaliers dessus (cas le plus simple : tu peux alors
les choisir...).

3) Il ne te reste plus qu'à déterminer ces valeurs. Le plus simple est
de faire une recherche exhaustive à l'aide d'un petit script en Perl ou
Bash qui tente d'allouer une paire (IO, IRQ) à ton module. 

Normalement, tu dois trouver ce couple facilement.

4) dernière étape : si le couple (IO, IRQ) est fixé dans des valeurs non
traditionnelles et vient marcher sur une adresse utilisée relativement
conventionnellement par un périphérique PCI, il te faudra forcer sa
détection en tout premier à l'amorçage pour éviter une allocation
d'adresse PCI dynamique qui recouvre celle de ta carte ISA. Parfois, le
seul moyen est de recompiler le noyau avec la carte ISA en dur (adresse
et IRQ).

Ce n'est pas très difficile à faire : juste un peu pénible.

Il suffit d'installer le paquet isapnp puis de tapper pnpdump. Apres, il 
faut editer le fichier /etc/isapnp.conf (ou quelque chose comme ca) et 
enlever les commentaires au niveau des paramettres que l'on souhaite 
garder. En fait, en general, c'est a peu pres toutes les lignes qui 
n'ont pas l'air de vrai commentaires de texte. Il faut bien faire 
attention a activer la ligne avec ACT. Exemple pour une carte reseau :


(CONFIGURE PNP0060/15626399 (LD 0
# Compatible device id PNP80d6
# Logical device decodes 10 bit IO address lines
# Minimum IO base address 0x0200
# Maximum IO base address 0x03e0
# IO base alignment 32 bytes
# Number of IO addresses required: 32
(IO 0 (SIZE 32) (BASE 0x0300))
# IRQ 3, 4, 5, 9, 10, 11, 12 or 15.
# High true, edge sensitive interrupt
(INT 0 (IRQ 10 (MODE +E)))
(NAME PNP0060/15626399[0]{NE2000 PLUG  PLAY ETHERNET CARD})
(ACT Y)
))
# End tag... Checksum 0x00 (OK)

A partir de la, on peux voir que l'IRQ est 10 et l'io=0x300.

Une fois fait ca, il faut soit redemarrer soit lancer /etc/init.d/isapnp 
restart

Puis chager le module sb avec :
modprobe sb io=0x300 irq=10 (dans mon exemple)

Voila, normalement ca devrait rouler. Si toute fois, tu es en noyaux 
2.4, a priori il suffit de compiler le PNP dans le noyaux et d'utiliser 
modprobe avec les parametres que tu veux genre : modprobe sb io=0x320 
irq=5 (assez courrant)

Re: alsa and sb16

Hold on... you don't even have an ISA card?  You might wanna know that
the sb16 driver is for old soundblaster ISA cards ONLY.  You're not even
using an sb16! I see from you're output that you have an AudioPCI128 --
this is a different card altogether, with different drivers.  No wonder
the modules aren't working! :)

You should be using the ens1371 driver. Check out

Curtis,

You apparently have a SB16-PCI card that uses a completely DIFFERENT 
audio chipset than the older SB16 ISA cards use.  I suspect your 
fundamental problem is trying to use the wrong driver module.


According to the ALSA supported soundcard list at: 
http://www.alsa-project.org/~goemon/, the SB16-PCI card uses the ens1371 
 driver module, rather than the sb16 module.  I suggest you give it a try.


You should NOT have to use any of the isapnp tools for this card.  The 
PCI bus does PnP stuff quite well without any help in the 2.2.X kernels. 
 The same is true of the 2.4.X series kernelsyou don't need it, but 
having it on your system will NOT hurt anything.  Don't worry about 
trying to set it up, unless you have something else that needs it.


I cannot guarantee this will completely solve your problem(s) since I 
don't have that particular card here, but I am fairlly certain that 
using the correct driver module will be a significant step!!


Cheers,
-Don Spoon-







alsa and sb16

2001-12-18 Thread Curtis Farnham
Thanks to all who have submitted suggestions on getting ALSA to work
with my Sound Blaster 16 PCI PnP card.  However, nothing has worked.

I've tried ALSA again and again.  I tried the kernel's built-in
sound-card modules.  I tried a different sound card.  I tried putting
the sound card in a different slot inside my box.  I re-installed
isapnptools (even though the documentation says I don't need it for a
PCI card).  But still, nothing.  Over and over, 'modprobe sb16' blows up
at me, and I keep getting told that the device is either busy or not
present.

I've wondered if something is broken - either the main board or the
sound card itself.  But I think not; 'lspci -v -b' seems to indicate
everything's fine:

The problem seems to be in getting my computer to realize that the sound

Would the isapnp-tools package have anything to do with this?  All of my

 Maybe you should enable the automatic kernel module loader. That way

Xes, of course  you have to install the Isa-PnP package and configrate the alsa-driver with "./configure --with-isapnp=yes" ... that worked for me ... but try the 0.9 tgz from the alsa-homepage

Re: ALSA strikes again (sb16 no go)

2001-12-17 Thread Matt




ALSA works just fine with SB16. Try ALSA 0.9 -- it's better. Make sure you have the right module compile options.. oss-emulation, isa-pnp, etc. Then use modconf to make sure that the correct ALSA modules are indeed loaded. To make them load at boot automagically, add them to /etc/modules. Also, remember that ALSA defaults to mute everything. Use a good mixer like aumix-gtk to unmute the channels before you play (/etc/aumixrc will need to be edited so that it works with alsa -- you'll see what I mean when you look at the file. Just comment out the no-alsa lines)



cheers,

 I was using an ALS4000 card and having no success, and I read somewhere
 that ALSA didn't fully support it anyway.  So, I bought a Sound Blaster
 16 PCI PnP card and tried again.  My speakers are still sadly silent. 
 
 Following are various data, outputs, and files that might be of interest

 	als4000 pci (pnp?)
 
 	(I only have room enough for 1 of these inside my box.)
 
 My ALSA version:
 	0.5.12a (compiled from source)
 
 The command I last used to configure alsa-driver sources before
 compiling:
 	debian:/usr/src/alsa/alsa-driver-0.5.12a# ./configure
 	--with-sequencer=yes --with-isapnp=no --with-cards=sb16
 
 And after compiling, here was the output from alsaconf:
 
 	Loading driver:
 	Starting ALSA sound driver (version 0.5.12a): (sb16)
 	Setting the PCM volume to 100% and the Master output volume to 	50%
 	The ALSA sound driver was not detected in this system.
 	Could not initialize the mixer, the card was probably not 	detected
 correctly.
 
 And here's the output from lsmod for sound-related modules (I *think*
 that's all that were loaded after '/etc/init.d/alsa start'):

Re: ALSA strikes again (sb16 no go)

2001-12-17 Thread Matt




ALSA works just fine with SB16. Try ALSA 0.9 -- it's better. Make sure you have the right module compile options.. oss-emulation, isa-pnp, etc. Then use modconf to make sure that the correct ALSA modules are indeed loaded. To make them load at boot automagically, add them to /etc/modules. Also, remember that ALSA defaults to mute everything. Use a good mixer like aumix-gtk to unmute the channels before you play (/etc/aumixrc will need to be edited so that it works with alsa -- you'll see what I mean when you look at the file. Just comment out the no-alsa lines)



cheers,

Matt

Re: ALSA woes (sb16 no go)

2001-12-16 Thread Olifuc
Hi,
I am using a Yamaha sound card on my Toshiba laptop.
First thing that i would do ist to use the alsa-drivers 0.9beta version.
After you installed the driver you have to load it with "modprobe snd-card-nameofyourcard" for me it was modprobe snd-card-ymfpci.
Than call the alsamixer with alsamixer and unmute all channels you need. This should work.

Maybe you should enable the automatic kernel module loader. That way 
you'll be reasonably sure you get all the needed modules loaded (and 
sometimes more).

You don't need compile again if you 
choose sb16 compatible sound support as modules,
just lsmod if you not sure.
If exist then modprobe the module.
If not up to you (compile again or not).

   you're right.i forgot about those things.
   It's an isa card,right? so first you have to check it out,sort of
   speak,hehe.like pnpdump  /etc/isapnp.conf
   then you have to edit that file and set the irq and port and
   activate it.then run isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf and it should say
   that soundblaster something enabled..
   then there is a command in modutils that i can't remember right
   now,that sets that not to go away after reboot.i might be wrong..
   once the card is set up,then just issue modprobe sb
   or insmod sb.mine it loads sb,mpu-401,soundcore,soundSOMETHING..
   so like 4 modules..
   i can't remember if you either edit /etc/modules.conf now or work
   with modutils to keep enable the sb modules autoloading after

and how do i find other mp3 audioand mpeg1 video player?

 Many SB16 cards can be configured to select PnP or a fixed IRQ.  If
 yours has that capability, you should definitely use a fixed IRQ.  In
 my case, I created /etc/modutils/sb with the following line:

 options io=0x220 irq=7 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=330

 I then ran 'update-modules' (which creates /etc/modules.conf) and
 'insmod sb' and sound was working.

 I put this line in /etc/modules, so sound would be enabled after boot:

 sb #Soundblaster 16

  Probably your problem is that it's in plug and play mode, and since
it's
  an ISA card that is suckland for Linux.
 
  You need a package called isapnp (apt-get install isapnp), which
might
  already be there.  Then you need to dump the output of pnpdump
--config
  into /etc/isapnp.conf (as root).  Then you should be set recognizing
the
  card (IF isa plug and play is enabled in your kernel...which it
should
  be.  If not, check modconf / recompile kernel with isapnp support).
Try
  isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf.  It should recognize some crap and your
sound
  card, and tell you your settings (dma, dma16, io, irq)  Write down
those
  4 things, then go into modconf.  The module you want is sb in with
all
  the other cards (It'll automagically get sound-core and all that
other
  crap).  For parameters, pass it all those 4 things (io=0x220 dma=1
  dma16=5 irq=5 for example).
 
  Now it should be recognizable, BUT probably only to root.  Anyone
whom
  you wish to make able to use the card needs to be added to the
audio
  group.
 
  OR, you could use ALSA, but I don't know how.  :)
 
  --adam b.
 
  BTW, you don't strictly have to have the kernel call isapnp; it's
just a
  lot cleaner.  You can also use preloads in your system init scripts,
and
  you can find how to do this on the net.  I didn't need to...I just
added
  isapnp.conf to /etc and everything worked after I installed the sb
  module.

 If I switch to the OSS sb module, things seem to work fine.
 
 The difference betwixt the Vibra16x and normal SB16 is that this
 card has two 8bit DMA channels, instead of on 8bit and one 16bit
 

I have a Creative Vibra16x soundcard, but I run OSS  with this card. IIRC, 
the card is unsupported by the ALSA.  I'm planning on casting this card on 
the dustheap as soon as I find the time to get a better card.

Re: placa sb16 pnp - nao pega

2001-06-10 Thread Francisco Maciel
Olá ALL,

Celso, instala o 'sndconfig' e rode-o no console que é bem provável
que ele consiga detectar corretamente sua placa e se não ele é bem
intuitivo para configuração dos parâmetros da mesma.

Na minha máquina ele consegui detectar corretamente, e entrega todo
funcionando beleza; Só que quando reinicio o computador ele perde a
confuração. Espero que com você não ocorra esse problema.

Tenho uma placa dessa tb... uso a opção da bios dizendo que o OS não é
plug-and-play para não ter que me preocupar com o isapnp, depois só é
carregar os modulos com os io's irq's e dma's corretamente que fica tudo
beleza, no meu caso utilizo os seguintes modulos e opções:

sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5
opl3 io=0x388

 Só falta isso para funcionar na minha máquina.

Q: SB16 ok-Need load other modules?

2001-01-17 Thread Jonathan Gift
Hi,

I have my SB16 working fine with the following modules compiled and
loaded:

sound
uart401
sb io=0x220 irq=10 dma=1 dma16=5

Everything works. But I didn't find the other card options when
compiling to, I believe, load the following modules:

mpu_io=0x330
op13 io=0x388

So the question is, have I in fact missed some settings in my kernel (if
so, which) compiling and are there further modules and uses of the
card and are they those just above?

Thanks.

Jonathan

See pnpdump (man pnpdump) it will show you the existing configuration of
all pnp cards. You can store the output to a file, modify it for your
use and play the configuration back via isapnp.

I recommand to read the manpages for isapnp and pnpdump.
Compare it with my isapnp.conf and you will understand how to go on.
In the kernel doc's is a describtion how to go on with the Vibra card
too.

Thanks for the info, I edited /etc/modules and /etc/modutils/sb along with
/etc/isapnp.conf and could not get my sound card initialized.

Here's a clip from dmesg:

Soundblaster audio driver Copyright (C) by Hannu Savolainen 1993-1996
SB 4.16 detected OK (220)
sb: Interrupt test on IRQ7 failed - Probable IRQ conflict

At first I thought that my sound card was fighting over my winmodems IRQ, so I
removed the winmodem from my computer. I later received the same error message 
at
boot time.

Here a clip from cat /proc/interrupts

  CPU0
  0:  39755  XT-PIC  timer
  1:   1527  XT-PIC  keyboard
  2:  0  XT-PIC  cascade

 15: 14  XT-PIC  ide1

As you can see the soundblaster card has attached itself to IRQ 7 (its a PnP
card). This should be no problem since I have mostly PCI hardware (besides the
soundcard) and I'm running PnP BIOS. Is there any way I can auto-detect my sound
card's hardware settings so that I can use those options for the sb module?

Re: Loading SB16 modules...

2000-12-23 Thread John Galt

Have you tried 

modprobe sb

yet?  Basically, the Vibra line is a weird model SB16--most of them used
PnP, so you might want to look into using isapnp program on bootup to
configure it.  IIRC, there's issues with the DMA8 and full duplex mode,
but that shouldn't prevent you from using it: it should only prevent you
from using both the mic and speakers simultaneously...
