Re: [alsa-devel] Echo Indigo card on Sabayon Gentoo
Hello Giuliano,
No luck, same behavior. I edited the first file listed listed below and recompiled it and installed it. Then I restarted the system with the indigo card in place, and the VU meters show levels in the -120 to -100 dB?
I do have alsa-driver-1.0.22 my kernel is 2.6.31

Hello Fellows, Just downloaded the latest (released) alsa-lib, alsa-driver, and alsa-utils, but my Indigo card does not work. It has been tested on the same system using the same drivers and on the same system using Fedora 10, that works fine.
First install a recent version of echomixer.
If you are using alsa-driver 1.0.22 or kernel 2.6.32, try to add this line:
#define ECHOCARD_HAS_LINE_OUT_GAIN
in
alsa-driver-1.0.22/alsa-kernel/pci/echoaudio/indigoio.c
or in
linux-2.6.32/sound/pci/echoaudio/indigoio.c
and recompile. It re-enables the line-out control that I removed last year because it was not supposed to exist in that card.

The first two meters are the two input channels. They always show some noise. I'll try something tomorrow on my indigoIOx. Those cards have the same set of controls, but yours doesn't work. Hmm, I'll let you know.

I did some tests with my indigoIOx. I added the "#define ECHOCARD_HAS_LINE_OUT_GAIN" in indigoiox.c and it compiled and loaded fine. That change adds this control to the set (which does not work on my card):
numid=17,iface=MIXER,name='Line Playback Volume' ; type=INTEGER,access=rw---R--,values=2,min=-128,max=6,step=0 : values=-128,-128 | dBscale-min=-128.00dB,step=1.00dB,mute=1
Please check it exists with "amixer -c <cardnumber> contents" (your numid may differ). If it doesn't, you didn't patch indigoio.c correctly. That control is not supposed to exist in Indigo and Mia cards, but since in the Mia it does, it might be there in the CARDBUS indigos as well.
Please use a recent echomixer and make sure the values of the control above are not -128dB.
