Hello.
i tried out the VT1618 patch from john utz but i failed to get the "Smart 5.1" surround sound working. so i figured that i'd go ahead and experiment with the driver to make it work on my via epia en15000 motherboard.
i tried requesting the data sheet from VIA ten ga-gillion times but they only responded once with a "the datasheet is a high level engineering document. visit the technical support forums for help".
i tried explaining that i needed the information to further develop an ALSA driver for the linux system but it seems like i wont get my hands on this god forsaken document.
Is there anyone out there who has any documentation on the vt1618..? via support is shocking. Nay, beyond shocking.
in John's patch he mentions various registers but unfortunately they dont help me without the docs..
Thanks Goran
