[Alsa-user] Please help! External MIDI with intel8x0?

2004-03-13 Thread Lonnie Princehouse
Sorry for the newbie help request =) I desperately need help getting external MIDI to work! I built the ALSA driver according to the INSTALL docs for my chipset (nVidia nforce2), using ./configure --with-cards=intel8x0 --with-sequencer=yes. Sound works great, but amidi -l yields no MIDI device

[Alsa-user] RealTek ALC202 - sound on toshiba satellite P15-S420

2004-03-13 Thread B. Marchand
I have a Toshiba Satellite P15-S420 model. The built in sound card is a Realtek ALC202. It does not appear to work under kernel version 2.6.3 (Mandrake 10) or the previous kernel used by Mandrake 9.2. It is detected but through an intel sound driver. Is there some kernel patch that needs to be

2004-03-13 Thread Jesse F. Hughes
I think I've discovered one common feature when I have semaphore errors with my intel8x0 card. It seems to happen only when the machine has a network connection. I'm not absolutely sure about this, but I'm pretty sure. Today, I tested the sound for some time. I played a DVD, did a few other th

Bill, I was "considering" getting another sound card, and disabling the "mother-board" sound card. First question, of course, would be, what sound card would work best, with ALSA and Linux support - mostly need a PCI stereo sound card, I usually connect my sound card directly to my analog stere

Hello, I'm currently experiencing weird problems with my Terratec Aureon 7.1-Space soundcard (snd-ice1724 driver). 1) Recording When I try to use arecord for recording from analog inputs (for instance 'arecord -fS32_LE -r44100 -c2 -d1 foo.wav'), sometimes the pc crashes. This behaviour depends on

OK, after a LOT of digging and help from the developers the last major hurdle was overcome. Apparently one must manually select either the optical or electrical input of the PDAudioCF card. (this was not documented anywhere). I threw together a simple script that automatically determines where th

Hey ho. I've been struggling with a recurring semaphore problem since November and I've written here several times about it, but I've never found a solution to the problem. I'll ask again. I'll take anything. Heck, just tell me what the heck a semaphore *is* for that matter. What happens? At
