[alsa-devel] Question to integrate a new driver
by Jean-Christian Hassler 16 May '07

16 May '07

Hello ! I wrote with a friend an ALSA driver for the emagic AUDIOWERK 2 soundcard. Now it works for the analog inputs/outputs. The project page is here : http://home.gna.org/aw2-alsa/index.html We have 2 questions to continue our work : 1- what is the way to submit our code to be integrated in the ALSA tree ? 2- We develop on two different version of the kernel (2.6.17-14 & 2.6.20) and the request_irq function prototype has changed between these two versions(the "struct pt_regs *" does no longer exists), how is this managed in ALSA ? Thank you

[alsa-devel] Jackd dies with snd-usb-usx2y (DRIVER NT error)
by Michael Bourgeous 15 May '07

15 May '07

Hi, I recently upgraded my system from 32-bit Ubuntu Edgy, with a custom hard-realtime-enabled 2.6.19 kernel, to 64-bit Ubuntu Feisty, with a hard-realtime-enabled 2.6.20 kernel. I also switched from an Athlon XP 2600 to an Athlon 64 X2 4600. In every way my new system should be faster, but jackd+usx2y worked on the last system, and doesn't work now. Here's what I'm doing to test the audio setup: ---------- sudo chrt -f 90 `pidof IRQ-23` # usb irq chrt -v -f 70 jackd -d alsa -dhw:1,2 -p 64 -n 2 # also tried defaults, and values up to -p 256 -n 8 chrt -v -f 25 zynaddsubfx ---------- After a short time (< 1 or 2 minutes) of switching instruments and playing notes with zynaddsubfx, all audio stops and jackd dies with the following error: ---------- ALSA: poll time out, polled for 7998858 usecs DRIVER NT: could not run driver cycle jack main caught signal 12 no message buffer overruns ---------- There is a corresponding message in the kernel log: ---------- [12546.132286] ALSA [...]/usx2yhwdeppcm.c:94: activ frame status -70. Most propably some hardware problem. ---------- I am loading the snd-usb-usx2y module with the nrpacks=1 option. I've gone through the Ubuntu HOWTOs I used to get things working on my last system (to some of which I have even contributed), and I am still having this problem. I already tried on alsa-user, so I'm taking this to the developer list (since I plan to help fix this if anybody will point me in the right direction). Additional note: I tried modifying the source code of the driver, commenting out the return statement after the "active status" error message. This began producing a new error message: "shouldn't be here with count=xx". So, I commented out the "return -EPIPE" after that error message, and now jackd doesn't crash. There are noticeable audio clicks whenever one of these errors occurs, but the driver seems to have no problem recovering, as audio continues. This error happens with the stock Ubuntu kernels as well. Thanks in advance, Mike Bourgeous

Hi, I want to port a audio program on my hx4700, So I will use a prebuilt toolchain. I have downloaded ftp://ftp.handhelds.org/projects/toolchain/arm-linux-gcc-3.4.1.tar.bz2 and I extract this file to /usr/local/arm I have downloaded alsa-lib from ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/lib/stable/alsa-lib-0.0.9.tar.gz I have compiled it : #./configure --prefix=/usr/local/arm-linux --host=arm-linux #make #make install after I compile my program : #arm-linux-gcc -Wa,-mfpu=fpa11 -mcpu=xscale record.c -lasound -I /usr/local/arm/3.4.1/include/ /usr/local/arm/3.4.1/lib/gcc/arm-linux/3.4.1/../../../../arm-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lasound collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Do you have an idea ? Can you help me ? I want to port a Vumeter, Peakmeter and other audio tools on hx4700. Thank you -- K

[alsa-devel] Multichannel capture support in E-MU 1212
by dustin＠seznam.cz 15 May '07

15 May '07

Hello, I am working together with Ctirad on supporting more capture channels in E-MU1212. So far we have managed to increase the number of channels from the default of 8 to 16 (A_FXWC2 = 0xffffffff, added new snd_emu10k1_audigy_dsp_convert_32_to_2x16 calls in emufx.c), there is still a number of issues to solve. I would like to get your opinion on the form of adding this support to the module. The options are either hard-coding the 16 capture channels into the code, assuming that users would prefer as many channels as possible and do the routing in jack, or introducing a module parameter emu1010-capture-channels (range e.g. 1 to 16 - untested yet) and leaving the default number at the existing 8. Furthermore, the PCMs other than efx seem to be of no use for the EMU-1x1x models, probably fairly confusing for new users. Would you find it OK, if they were removed for this specific card (if (emu->card_capabilities->emu1010)), keeping only the playback and capture PCM id 2? Thanks a lot for your suggestions. Based on them, I will prepare the patch (with comments on what we found out about the card - it is a pitty that the driver has almost no big-picture comments on the supported cards' specifics, making new developers spend a number of long nights going through the nontrivial code and guessing). Pavel.

[alsa-devel] intel8x0 / ALC655 no-capture solved
by Vegard Nossum 15 May '07

15 May '07

Hello, I've successfully debugged a problem I've had with being unable to record anything from microphones or line-in. Detailed information about the bug along with a temporary work-around can be found here: http://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=3066 Now I'd just like to inform about the presence of the bug (at least I'm pretty sure it's a bug), and that it's solved by the means of a work-around. I'd be very happy to see a fix in the *code* for this, however. I'd even like to try it myself (heck, it's just a register write), but I'm not certain WHERE/WHEN to make the write, under which conditions, and for which range of cards (ie. is it specific to the ALC655 or ALC*, or perhaps Realtek chips, or should the fix be made for the Intel driver, or all AC'97 cards?). Guidance would be appreciated :) Maybe it's even as easy as a card config option, but I wouldn't know. Thanks. Kinds regards, Vegard Nossum PS: I'm not on the list, so please CC any replies.

[alsa-devel] soft vol
by Michel Benoit 15 May '07

15 May '07

Hello Now that I have my pcm playback working with aplay with our at91 aSoc sound driver I would like to control the volume with softvol. I followed the instructions from http://alsa.opensrc.org/How_to_use_softvol_to_control_the_master_volume and I have the following asound.con file in /etc pcm.!default { type plug slave.pcm "softvol" } pcm.softvol { type softvol slave { pcm "plughw:0,0" } control { name "PCM volume" card 0 } } When I play a wav file directly to the device it works fine: # aplay -Dplughw:0,0 Front_Center.wav Playing WAVE 'Front_Center.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Mono but when I try to use the default softvol device I get the following output (and no sound): # aplay Front_Center.wav Playing WAVE 'Front_Center.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Mono ALSA sound/core/control.c:1244: unknown ioctl = 0xc2c45512 ALSA sound/core/control.c:1244: unknown ioctl = 0xc2c45512 ALSA sound/core/control.c:1244: unknown ioctl = 0xc2c45512 ALSA sound/core/control.c:1244: unknown ioctl = 0xc2c45512 ALSA sound/core/control.c:1244: unknown ioctl = 0xc2c45512 ... Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening? Michel
