[alsa-devel] MS-7350 Realtek ALC888
by Philipp Matthias Hahn 10 Nov '08

10 Nov '08

Hello! I have an MSI MS-7350 motherborad with an onboard Realtek ALC888 HDA codec. I need to specify model=6stack-dig to get the internal CD connector to show up, else automatic BIOS scanning doesn't find it. Might be that you want to add the appropriate DMI/PCI quirk stuff, so other users get the benefit of automatic detection. $ lspci -s 0:10.1 00:10.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio (rev a2) $ lspci -s 0:10.1 -n -vvv 00:10.1 0403: 10de:026c (rev a2) Subsystem: 1462:7350 Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx- Status: Cap+ 66MHz+ UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx- Latency: 0 (500ns min, 1250ns max) Interrupt: pin B routed to IRQ 22 Region 0: Memory at f9ff8000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: <access denied> Kernel driver in use: HDA Intel Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel BYtE Philipp -- / / (_)__ __ ____ __ Philipp Hahn / /__/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / /____/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ pmhahn(a)titan.lahn.de

[alsa-devel] Non-functional Altec Lansing FX5051 USB-soundcard + speakers
by Jeremy Nickurak 10 Nov '08

10 Nov '08

About 14 months ago I purchased a nice new ~$300 set of altec lansing 5.1 speakers, which include a USB-sound card. Since that time they've largely gone unused, or at least not properly used. I brought this up on the mailing list at the time, but didn't get much response, so I thought I'd poke my head up again and see if anybody has any insight. First off, the set works correctly, out-of-the-box under windows, without having to install any special drivers or software at all. Under linux, plugging them in instantly freezes the usb sound card up, and locks it at 100% volume, in such a way that there's absolutely no way to turn the volume down: not from alsamixer, and not from the speaker's hardware control dial. Sound does play, but again, it's unbearably loud, to the point where I don't do it for risk of damaging my speakers and/or ears. I filed the bug away on the bug-tracker, but haven't heard much out of it since. The bug contains my lsusb -v information, the "contents" output from amixer for this card, and some preliminary results showing some ability to tweak the volume with amixer, but not reliably. Any suggestions are welcome. I'm happy to experiment with this set more if it can help, run experimental code, etc. Heck, I'd go at the thing with a screwdriver for chipset information if I know what I was looking for or thought it could help.

[alsa-devel] [PATCH] ALSA: HDSP: check for io box before uploading firmware
by Tim Blechmann 10 Nov '08

10 Nov '08

currently the hdsp driver tries to upload the firmware, even if the io box is not connected. this patch adds a check for the io box before trying to upload the firmware. thus instead of messages complaining about the fifo status and firmware loading failure, the driver gives a message that no multiface or digiface is connected.

[alsa-devel] Stuttering 100mA and 500mA MaxPower usb audio investigation on bus powered and external powererd usb hubs
by Jelle de Jong 10 Nov '08

10 Nov '08

Hello everybody, I have been testing several scenarios to find some glues why some usb audio devices did not fully work and gave stuttering sounds I found the following: usb devices define a max power attribute during there enumeration process. I have some usb devices that have this at 500mA and some that have this on 100mA. I also have some usb hubs that have external extra power supply and some that are only a hub with bus power. Here it comes: Make sure the 4 port usb hub is full with for example: - usb keyboard (100mA) - usb mouse (100mA) - usb audio (100mA or 500mA) - usb stick (200mA/500mA) - usb hub with external power (500mA MaxPower) (AC adapter delivers 1A) - usb hub without external power (100mA MaxPower) Make sure to use audio with several tones low tones (most dvds will do) When connecting a 100mA usb audio devices on a hub with external power it will give stuttering sound!! (most usb audo devices are 100mA and most hubs are external powered due to more then one usb stick) When connecting a 500mA usb audio device on a hub with external power it will work perfectly. When connecting a 100mA or a 500mA usb audio device on a hub without external power it will work perfectly. I have the idea there is something wrong with the power distribution system when using external powered usb hubs... Any ideas how to correctly address this problem/bug? Best regards, Jelle

[alsa-devel] Backported sbxfi driver (UNTESTED!)
by Romain 10 Nov '08

10 Nov '08

Hi, I've tested the sbxfi driver and it works great on my setup. Had little problems before getting it running : i had to comment out the snd_printk stuff, otherwise the module wouldn't load (snd_printk* symbols not found, in dmesg) This was probably not the cleanest way to deal but it's just debug messages and i'm new wrt kernel driver hacking. I also had to disable my onboard audio in BIOS, otherwise the X-Fi would not get picked up. i'm using Fedora 9 with Linux 2.6.26.6-79.fc9.i686 kernel (standard supply from fedora repos),and pulseaudio I'm using with standard 2.1 jack output, i do not yet own home cinema speakers so i couldn't test all the cabling options. Thanks for this great work, Best Regards, Romain.
