Re: [Alsa-devel] Why does Alsa sometimes not find the HDSP 9652?

Justin, I'm running Alsa-1.0.0rc2. How much more up to date could I be? Also, this is an HDSP 9652 which has the firmware on the board. Why is a firmware loader required at all? Possibly you're on to something I don't see yet? Maybe something is left over from an older version and causin

Justin, Hi. Thanks. syslog from that series of boots is attached. Note the first boot, line 304 looks like this: Dec 20 05:43:46 Wizard kernel: ALSA ../../alsa-kernel/pci/rme9652/hdsp.c:807: wait for FIFO status <= 0 failed after 100 iterations Dec 20 05:43:46 Wizard kernel: RME Hammerfall-DSP

I think transgaming should fully embrace ALSA otherwise they are hurting themselves. OSS is DEAD and with kernel 2.6 most if not all distros will use ALSA by default while providing an OSS emulation layer. mmap is not necessarily needed for good performance and low latency and it would be better
