Creative released a driver today.... I am hasitating to install it.. the last one was so crappy and I just installed my gentoo new ;-)
But it looks really like the SOURCE, so maybe it will help to pimp the ALSA driver (would rather see an implementation in alsa then an driver from Creative)
Is the new driver providing an ALSA device, or an OSS-style /dev/dsp one?
Personally I'd rather see an open-source driver make it into ALSA to support the X-Fi, rather than relying upon Creative's terrible quality and dreadful timeliness.
I'll try out the Creative driver on the weekend, and see if it works where the ALSA one doesn't. (I just get loops of static from the experimental ALSA driver.. it's like a memory ring buffer somewhere is *meant* to be getting filled with an audio stream, but isn't - but the card is still playing from it.)
Cheers. Toby
It was incompatibility with older kernels. Updated to 2.6.27 and driver works now. But no 5.1 support again :(
OSS mixer has no functionality. It is present (/dev/mixer) but no app can use it for volume control. OSS playback is fine however.
