[alsa-devel] [PATCH] MPU401 lockups
by Serge Nikolaenko 25 Jun '07

25 Jun '07

Hello, The attachement is the fix for mpu to prevent lockups/freezes. Added mutexes with down_trylock() calls, to prevent blocking. Midi in/out not tested - I don't have no midi devices at the moment. My soundcard is ESI Juli@. MB integrated midi is disabled in bios.

Does this problem occur with S2D? What is the very first command that triggers this timeout error? I'm wondering what is the difference between them -- according to your report, reloading the module fixes the problem. But, the resume callback is almost identical with the re-initiailzation. Perhaps it's something to do with the power-state management. What about the patch below?

[alsa-devel] alsa-lib: pcm_softvol.c: attenuation curve - it seems to be too quiet at full volume
by John L. Utz III 25 Jun '07

25 Jun '07

Hello All; I am in release testing with a fix to our product to use 4 channels on a CMEDIA 8738-MC6 (previously we only used 2 channels on the CMEDIA and a separate soundcard for the 2 back channels). The 8738 is a pretty funny old duck of a chip and i am trying to work around a subset of it's many idiosyncracies. :-) The most glaring defect is the absence of hard volume on the back channels *and* that the back channel is louder than the front channel. Obviously, this is a great candidate for softvol! Softvol works quite well *except* that the max volume for the rear channel is now much quieter than it is without softvol. :-( Is there anything i can do to alter this behavior? I notice that there is an initial minimal DB in the file: #define PRESET_MIN_DB -51.0 is this where everything starts from? if i bump this up, will i get a higher max volume? tnx! johnu

[alsa-devel] Query regarding pointer callback
by Pharaoh . 25 Jun '07

25 Jun '07

Hi In Writing an ALSA driver, it is said that pointer callback is called usually from the buffer-update routine in the pcm middle layer, which is invoked when snd_pcm_period_elapsed() is called in the interrupt routine. Then the pcm middle layer updates the position and calculates the available space, and wakes up the sleeping poll threads, etc What are the other places from where pointer callback is called? If it is not called from any other routine then does it mean that interrupts are occuring?

Hi, I reported a bug about medion laptops having an intel 82801G sound card that doesn't work with ALSA 1.0.14rc4 on Kubuntu : https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/bug_view_advanced_page.php?bug_i… I didn't get any news yet. As I said, I'm willing to help. Any ideas about what I should check ? Is there any web page that could help me to detect the problem ? Thanks
