-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi folks -
>Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: no idea what's going on..., >contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] The mighty /var/log/messages - it which must be obeyed - has commanded me to join this list and tell you my problem. I am very nearly a happy chappy. My Creative Audigy2 NX is working really quite well with Alsa on 2.6.5 as rolled by Redhat on their current FC2 development tree (currently their build 327). There is one exception -- the kernel will not accept the device *until the PC is rebooted* if the device is in during Linux boot. Although this has been going on for a while until today I figured that the BIOS on this Inspiron 5150 was responsible for messing the USB host controller up somehow if the Audigy was present at boot. But no, the problem seems to be coming from Linux. If I remove the device, reboot the machine, and add it back just as Linux begins its boot, the problem is present. So what does the problem look like? Here is the log: Apr 20 11:16:28 fastcat kernel: usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using address 4 Apr 20 11:16:28 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 audiocontrol interface 0 has 1 input and 1 output AudioStreaming interfaces Apr 20 11:16:28 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: valid input sample rate 32000 Apr 20 11:16:28 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 2 altsetting 1: format 0x80000010 sratelo 32000 sratehi 32000 attributes 0x00 Apr 20 11:16:28 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 2 altsetting 2 unsupported channels 2 framesize 3 Apr 20 11:16:28 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: valid input sample rate 44100 Apr 20 11:16:28 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 2 altsetting 3: format 0x80000010 sratelo 44100 sratehi 44100 attributes 0x00 Apr 20 11:16:28 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 2 altsetting 4 unsupported channels 2 framesize 3 Apr 20 11:16:28 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: valid input sample rate 48000 Apr 20 11:16:28 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 2 altsetting 5: format 0x80000010 sratelo 48000 sratehi 48000 attributes 0x00 Apr 20 11:16:28 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 2 altsetting 6 unsupported channels 2 framesize 3 Apr 20 11:16:28 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: valid input sample rate 96000 Apr 20 11:16:28 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 2 altsetting 7: format 0x80000010 sratelo 96000 sratehi 96000 attributes 0x00 Apr 20 11:16:28 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 2 altsetting 8 unsupported channels 2 framesize 3 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: valid output sample rate 22050 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 1 altsetting 1: format 0x80000010 sratelo 22050 sratehi 22050 attributes 0x00 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 1 altsetting 2 format not supported Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 1 altsetting 3 format not supported Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: valid output sample rate 48000 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 1 altsetting 4: format 0x80000010 sratelo 48000 sratehi 48000 attributes 0x00 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 1 altsetting 5 unsupported channels 2 framesize 3 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: valid output sample rate 96000 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 1 altsetting 6: format 0x80000010 sratelo 96000 sratehi 96000 attributes 0x00 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 1 altsetting 7 unsupported channels 2 framesize 3 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 1 altsetting 8 unsupported channels 4 framesize 2 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 1 altsetting 9 unsupported channels 4 framesize 2 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 1 altsetting 10 unsupported channels 4 framesize 3 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 1 altsetting 11 unsupported channels 6 framesize 2 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 1 altsetting 12 unsupported channels 6 framesize 2 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 1 altsetting 13 unsupported channels 6 framesize 3 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 1 altsetting 14 unsupported channels 8 framesize 2 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: device 4 interface 1 altsetting 15 unsupported channels 8 framesize 2 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: registered dsp 14,3 Apr 20 11:16:29 fastcat kernel: usbaudio: warning: found 2 of 8 logical channels.

If I hold off on inserting it until we are up in X, then the card comes up perfectly in Alsa and I can use it just fine. The danger period for having it plugged in runs from powerup, through Linux boot, at least up until my initscripts bring up Postfix (which is quite late in the day). The danger is past by the time X has changed video mode to start up, if I plug in then the device will be recognized fine for the rest of the session. What is in the logs for a good connect? None of the debug stuff above, just this.
