This patch adds support for ASUS - Xonar DSX sound cards. Tested on

openSUSE 12.2 with kernel:

Linux 3.4.6-2.10-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jul 26 09:36:26 UTC 2012

(641c197) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Works:

• play sounds
• adjust volume on master channel.
• mute .

Since Xonar DS uses the same chip, everything that works for DS should

work for DSX as well.

Thank you, Sergiu Giurgiu.

It appears that I need to apply this patch but I cannot understand how to do this. I have read that in order for the drivers to recognise the DSX card then this patch is necessary. Please explain where to apply it and how to compile the drivers afterwards.

Linux Mint 14, KDE, ASUS M5A78L-M motherboard with ALC887 chip. ALSA and PulseAudio, all work together but sound quality is disappointing so I wish to use the Xonar DSX instead.

What are these codes? Am I suppose to copy this into a file for the sound card to work on linux?
