[alsa-devel] another device for opl3sa2
by Paul Vojta 27 Jul '07

27 Jul '07

Folks: Here's a patch to add support for an (admittedly old) device: --- linux-2.6.21.5/sound/isa/opl3sa2.c.orig 2007-06-11 11:37:06.000000000 -0700 +++ linux-2.6.21.5/sound/isa/opl3sa2.c 2007-06-30 23:29:43.000000000 -0700 @@ -165,6 +165,8 @@ { .id = "YMH0801", .devs = { { "YMH0021" } } }, /* NeoMagic MagicWave 3DX */ { .id = "NMX2200", .devs = { { "YMH2210" } } }, + /* NeoMagic MagicWave 3D */ + { .id = "NMX2200", .devs = { { "NMX2210" } } }, /* --- */ { .id = "" } /* end */ }; (There may be a bug in the initialization code, though -- it doesn't work the first time after booting, just the second and subsequent times. For example, the first time I try running "aplay file.wav" it'll sit there silently instead of playing the file, but if I type "aplay file.wav" again then it'll play.) I don't know whether snd_opl3sa2_pnpbiosids[] should also be changed. Also, why does nm256.c direct users to the cs423x drivers and not opl3sa2? If it had mentioned opl3sa2 it would have saved me many hours. Sincerely, Paul Vojta vojta(a)math.berkeley.edu

[alsa-devel] Effect of CONFIG_SND_PCM_OSS_PLUGINS
by Adrian McMenamin 27 Jul '07

27 Jul '07

Unless CONFIG_SND_PCM_OSS_PLUGINS is set then with my driver the userspace (and OSS) app mpg123 doesn't work properly - not outputting any sound. Is this likely to be a problem with my driver or with the app? Adrian

[alsa-devel] VT1618 driver
by Niels Gram Jeppesen 27 Jul '07

27 Jul '07

Hi, I have a VIA CN1000G mini-ITX board with a VT1618 that I would like to have up and running with sound next week. I see (https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=VT1618&show_comments…) that there exist a still unreleased driver for the chip. If possible, I would like to play arround with that driver next week. Best regards and thanks in advance, Niels Gram Jeppesen

[alsa-devel] Intel HDA Driver - Bug
by Steven King 26 Jul '07

26 Jul '07

Hi, I have been trying to get the sound on my Dell Inspiron 1720 laptop running under Debian Etch (STAC 9205). Originally, I could only get sound through the main speakers, there was no headphone sound or mic. I downloaded the latest alsa-drivers package (1.0.14), compiled it and installed it. I received the following messages (and the device would not register itself): hda_intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to polling mode... hda_intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to single_cmd mode... I started digging into the driver code and found an issue with one of the routines going outside an array. The offending code is (all in patch_sigmatel): static void stac92xx_set_config_regs(struct hda_codec *codec) { // ... for (i = 0; i < spec->num_pins; i++) { // ... } And in: static int patch_stac9205(struct hda_codec *codec) { // .. spec->num_pins = 14 ; //ERROR // .. } However, there are only 12 pins with 12 corresponding NIDs and default configuration so in stac92xx_set_config_regs it accesses spec->pin_configs[i] and spec->pin_nids[i] outside of bounds. Fix: Add a define (STAC_9205_MAX_PINS = 12) and use for array defines and num_pins. The driver loads now, but I still only have sound out the main speaker. If I get rid of the configuration sent to the chipset altogether. I get sound through Headphone and Speakers (with detect working on HP), but still no MIC. How can I add support for my Dell as I don't know the configuration to use or am I missing something here? Thanks, Steve

[alsa-devel] ALC262 - HDA-Intel
by Andy 26 Jul '07

26 Jul '07

I have a ALC262 hda-intel card which doesn't function quite correctly. Details can be found at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/110145 I got bored of waiting for it to be fixed, and had a go myself. My knowledge of ALSA is very limited, but nevertheless it was really simple to add my device ids to the quirks list in the patch_realtek.c file - eg: ... SND_PCI_QUIRK(0x104d, 0x900e, "Sony ASSAMD", ALC262_SONY_ASSAMD), SND_PCI_QUIRK(0x104d, 0x1f00, "Sony ASSAMD", ALC262_SONY_ASSAMD), /* My card... */ SND_PCI_QUIRK(0x104d, 0x820f, "Sony ASSAMD", ALC262_SONY_ASSAMD), ... I found by trial and error that ALC262_SONY_ASSAMD almost works. Connecting headphones disables built-in speakers and unplugging them re-enables them. However, something does not get initialised until this is done. That is, every bootup using ALC262_SONY_ASSAMD, I must plug in and remove my headphones before the device is initialised properly. Until this is done, I get no sound and the little GUI mixer in XFCE doesn't show the list of supported outputs on the device. I'm posting this to the devel list as I'm more interested the code side of things rather than actually having working sound :) Thanks Andy. ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
