Before loading the commercial sound -driver, you should do the following: - -1. remove sound modules (detailed above) -2. remove the sound modules from /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf -3. move the sound modules from /lib/modules/<kernel>/misc - (for example, I make a /lib/modules/<kernel>/misc/tmp - directory and copy the sound module files to that - directory). - - -Multiple Sound Cards: -===================== - -The sound drivers will support multiple sound cards and there -are some great applications like multitrack that support them. -Typically, you need two sound cards of different types. Note, this -uses more precious interrupts and DMA channels and sometimes -can be a configuration nightmare. I have heard reports of 3-4 -sound cards (typically I only use 2). You can sometimes use -multiple PCI sound cards of the same type. - -On my machine I have two sound cards (cs4232 and Soundblaster Vibra -16). By loading sound as modules, I can control which is the first -sound device (/dev/dsp, /dev/audio, /dev/mixer) and which is -the second. Normally, the cs4232 (Dell sound on the motherboard) -would be the first sound device, but I prefer the Soundblaster. -All you have to do is to load the one you want as /dev/dsp -first (in my case "sb") and then load the other one -(in my case "cs4232"). - -If you have two cards of the same type that are jumpered -cards or different PnP revisions, you may load the same -module twice. For example, I have a SoundBlaster vibra 16 -and an older SoundBlaster 16 (jumpers). To load the module -twice, you need to do the following: - -1. Copy the sound modules to a new name. For example - sb.o could be copied (or symlinked) to sb1.o for the - second SoundBlaster. - -2. Make a second entry in /etc/modprobe.d/*conf, for example, - sound1 or sb1. This second entry should refer to the - new module names for example sb1, and should include - the I/O, etc. for the second sound card. - -3. Update your soundon.sh script, etc. - -Warning: I have never been able to get two PnP sound cards of the -same type to load at the same time. I have tried this several times -with the Soundblaster Vibra 16 cards. OSS has indicated that this -is a PnP problem.... If anyone has any luck doing this, please -send me an E-MAIL. PCI sound cards should not have this problem.a -Since this was originally release, I have received a couple of -mails from people who have accomplished this! - -NOTE: In Linux 2.4 the Sound Blaster driver (and only this one yet) -supports multiple cards with one module by default. -Read the file 'Soundblaster' in this directory for details. - - -Sound Problems: -=============== - -First RTFM (including the troubleshooting section -in the Sound-HOWTO). - -1) If you are having problems loading the modules (for - example, if you get device conflict errors) try the - following: - - A) If you have Win95 or NT on the same computer, - write down what addresses, IRQ, and DMA channels - those were using for the same hardware. You probably - can use these addresses, IRQs, and DMA channels. - You should really do this BEFORE attempting to get - sound working! - - B) Check (cat) /proc/interrupts, /proc/ioports, - and /proc/dma. Are you trying to use an address, - IRQ or DMA port that another device is using? - - C) Check (cat) /proc/isapnp - - D) Inspect your /var/log/messages file. Often that will - indicate what IRQ or IO port could not be obtained. - - E) Try another port or IRQ. Note this may involve - using the PnP tools to move the sound card to - another location. Sometimes this is the only way - and it is more or less trial and error. - -2) If you get motor-boating (the same sound or part of a - sound clip repeated), you probably have either an IRQ - or DMA conflict. Move the card to another IRQ or DMA - port. This has happened to me when playing long files - when I had an IRQ conflict. - -3. If you get dropouts or pauses when playing high sample - rate files such as using mpg123 or x11amp/xmms, you may - have too slow of a CPU and may have to use the options to - play the files at 1/2 speed. For example, you may use - the -2 or -4 option on mpg123. You may also get this - when trying to play mpeg files stored on a CD-ROM - (my Toshiba T8000 PII/366 sometimes has this problem). - -4. If you get "cannot access device" errors, your /dev/dsp - files, etc. may be set to owner root, mode 600. You - may have to use the command: - chmod 666 /dev/dsp /dev/mixer /dev/audio - -5. If you get "device busy" errors, another program has the - sound device open. For example, if using the Enlightenment - sound daemon "esd", the "esd" program has the sound device. - If using "esd", please RTFM the docs on ESD. For example, - esddsp <program> may be used to play files via a non-esd - aware program. - -6) Ask for help on the sound list or send E-MAIL to the - sound driver author/maintainer. - -7) Turn on debug in drivers/sound/sound_config.h (DEB, DDB, MDB). - -8) If the system reports insufficient DMA memory then you may want to - load sound with the "dmabufs=1" option. Or in /etc/conf.modules add - - preinstall sound dmabufs=1 - - This makes the sound system allocate its buffers and hang onto them. - - You may also set persistent DMA when building a 2.4.x kernel. - - -Configuring Sound: -================== - -There are several ways of configuring your sound: - -1) On the kernel command line (when using the sound driver(s) - compiled in the kernel). Check the driver source and - documentation for details. - -2) On the command line when using insmod or in a bash script - using command line calls to load sound. - -3) In /etc/modprobe.d/*conf when using modprobe. - -4) Via Red Hat's GPL'd /usr/sbin/sndconfig program (text based). - -5) Via the OSS soundconf program (with the commercial version - of the OSS driver. - -6) By just loading the module and let isapnp do everything relevant - for you. This works only with a few drivers yet and - of course - - only with isapnp hardware. - -And I am sure, several other ways. - -Anyone want to write a linuxconf module for configuring sound? - - -Module Loading: -=============== - -When a sound card is first referenced and sound is modular, the sound system -will ask for the sound devices to be loaded. Initially it requests that -the driver for the sound system is loaded. It then will ask for -sound-slot-0, where 0 is the first sound card. (sound-slot-1 the second and -so on). Thus you can do - -alias sound-slot-0 sb - -To load a soundblaster at this point. If the slot loading does not provide -the desired device - for example a soundblaster does not directly provide -a midi synth in all cases then it will request "sound-service-0-n" where n -is - - 0 Mixer - - 2 MIDI - - 3, 4 DSP audio - - -For example, I use the following to load my Soundblaster PCI 128 -(ES 1371) card first, followed by my SoundBlaster Vibra 16 card, -then by my TV card: - -# Load the Soundblaster PCI 128 as /dev/dsp, /dev/dsp1, /dev/mixer -alias sound-slot-0 es1371 - -# Load the Soundblaster Vibra 16 as /dev/dsp2, /dev/mixer1 -alias sound-slot-1 sb -options sb io=0x240 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330 - -# Load the BTTV (TV card) as /dev/mixer2 -alias sound-slot-2 bttv -alias sound-service-2-0 tvmixer - -pre-install bttv modprobe tuner ; modprobe tvmixer -pre-install tvmixer modprobe msp3400; modprobe tvaudio -options tuner debug=0 type=8 -options bttv card=0 radio=0 pll=0 - - -For More Information (RTFM): -============================ -1) Information on kernel modules: manual pages for insmod and modprobe. - -2) Information on PnP, RTFM manual pages for isapnp. - -3) Sound-HOWTO and Sound-Playing-HOWTO. - -4) OSS's WWW site at http://www.opensound.com. - -5) All the files in Documentation/sound. - -6) The comments and code in linux/drivers/sound. - -7) The sndconfig and rhsound documentation from Red Hat. - -8) The Linux-sound mailing list: sound-list@redhat.com. - -9) Enlightenment documentation (for info on esd) - http://www.tux.org/~ricdude/EsounD.html. - -10) ALSA home page: http://www.alsa-project.org/ - - -Contact Information: -==================== -Wade Hampton: (whampton@staffnet.com) - diff --git a/Documentation/sound/oss/MultiSound b/Documentation/sound/oss/MultiSound deleted file mode 100644 index e4a18bb7f73a..000000000000 --- a/Documentation/sound/oss/MultiSound +++ /dev/null @@ -1,1137 +0,0 @@ -#! /bin/sh -# -# Turtle Beach MultiSound Driver Notes -# -- Andrew Veliath <andrewtv@usa.net> -# -# Last update: September 10, 1998 -# Corresponding msnd driver: 0.8.3 -# -# ** This file is a README (top part) and shell archive (bottom part). -# The corresponding archived utility sources can be unpacked by -# running `sh MultiSound' (the utilities are only needed for the -# Pinnacle and Fiji cards). ** -# -# -# -=-=- Getting Firmware -=-=- -# ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -# -# See the section `Obtaining and Creating Firmware Files' in this -# document for instructions on obtaining the necessary firmware -# files. -# -# -# Supported Features -# ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -# -# Currently, full-duplex digital audio (/dev/dsp only, /dev/audio is -# not currently available) and mixer functionality (/dev/mixer) are -# supported (memory mapped digital audio is not yet supported). -# Digital transfers and monitoring can be done as well if you have -# the digital daughterboard (see the section on using the S/PDIF port -# for more information). -# -# Support for the Turtle Beach MultiSound Hurricane architecture is -# composed of the following modules (these can also operate compiled -# into the kernel): -# -# msnd - MultiSound base (requires soundcore) -# -# msnd_classic - Base audio/mixer support for Classic, Monetery and -# Tahiti cards -# -# msnd_pinnacle - Base audio/mixer support for Pinnacle and Fiji cards -# -# -# Important Notes - Read Before Using -# ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -# -# The firmware files are not included (may change in future).

It is up to you to know if these are free locations or now, -# a conflict can lock the machine up. -# -# * Pinnacle/Fiji -# -# The Pinnacle and Fiji cards have an extra config port, either -# 0x250, 0x260 or 0x270. This port can be disabled to have the card -# configured strictly through PnP, however you lose the ability to -# access the IDE controller and joystick devices on this card when -# using PnP. The included pinnaclecfg program in this shell archive -# can be used to configure the card in non-PnP mode, and in PnP mode -# you can use isapnptools. These are described briefly here. -# -# pinnaclecfg is not required; you can use the msnd_pinnacle module -# to fully configure the card as well. However, pinnaclecfg can be -# used to change the resource values of a particular device after the -# msnd_pinnacle module has been loaded. If you are compiling the -# driver into the kernel, you must set these values during compile -# time, however other peripheral resource values can be changed with -# the pinnaclecfg program after the kernel is loaded. -# -# -# *** PnP mode -# -# Use pnpdump to obtain a sample configuration if you can; I was able -# to obtain one with the command `pnpdump 1 0x203' -- this may vary -# for you (running pnpdump by itself did not work for me). Then, -# edit this file and use isapnp to uncomment and set the card values. -# Use these values when inserting the msnd_pinnacle module. Using -# this method, you can set the resources for the DSP and the Kurzweil -# synth (Pinnacle). Since Linux does not directly support PnP -# devices, you may have difficulty when using the card in PnP mode -# when it the driver is compiled into the kernel. Using non-PnP mode -# is preferable in this case. -# -# Here is an example mypinnacle.conf for isapnp that sets the card to -# io base 0x210, irq 5 and mem 0xd8000, and also sets the Kurzweil -# synth to 0x330 and irq 9 (may need editing for your system): -# -# (READPORT 0x0203) -# (CSN 2) -# (IDENTIFY *) -# -# # DSP -# (CONFIGURE BVJ0440/-1 (LD 0 -# (INT 0 (IRQ 5 (MODE +E))) (IO 0 (BASE 0x0210)) (MEM 0 (BASE 0x0d8000)) -# (ACT Y))) -# -# # Kurzweil Synth (Pinnacle Only) -# (CONFIGURE BVJ0440/-1 (LD 1 -# (IO 0 (BASE 0x0330)) (INT 0 (IRQ 9 (MODE +E))) -# (ACT Y))) -# -# (WAITFORKEY) -# -# -# *** Non-PnP mode -# -# The second way is by running the card in non-PnP mode. This -# actually has some advantages in that you can access some other -# devices on the card, such as the joystick and IDE controller. To -# configure the card, unpack this shell archive and build the -# pinnaclecfg program. Using this program, you can assign the -# resource values to the card's devices, or disable the devices. As -# an alternative to using pinnaclecfg, you can specify many of the -# configuration values when loading the msnd_pinnacle module (or -# during kernel configuration when compiling the driver into the -# kernel). -# -# If you specify cfg=0x250 for the msnd_pinnacle module, it -# automatically configure the card to the given io, irq and memory -# values using that config port (the config port is jumper selectable -# on the card to 0x250, 0x260 or 0x270). -# -# See the `msnd_pinnacle Additional Options' section below for more -# information on these parameters (also, if you compile the driver -# directly into the kernel, these extra parameters can be useful -# here). -# -# -# ** It is very easy to cause problems in your machine if you choose a -# resource value which is incorrect. ** -# -# -# Examples -# ~~~~~~~~ -# -# * MultiSound Classic/Monterey/Tahiti: -# -# modprobe soundcore -# insmod msnd -# insmod msnd_classic io=0x290 irq=7 mem=0xd0000 -# -# * MultiSound Pinnacle in PnP mode: -# -# modprobe soundcore -# insmod msnd -# isapnp mypinnacle.conf -# insmod msnd_pinnacle io=0x210 irq=5 mem=0xd8000 <-- match mypinnacle.conf values -# -# * MultiSound Pinnacle in non-PnP mode (replace 0x250 with your configuration port, -# one of 0x250, 0x260 or 0x270): -# -# insmod soundcore -# insmod msnd -# insmod msnd_pinnacle cfg=0x250 io=0x290 irq=5 mem=0xd0000 -# -# * To use the MPU-compatible Kurzweil synth on the Pinnacle in PnP -# mode, add the following (assumes you did `isapnp mypinnacle.conf'): -# -# insmod sound -# insmod mpu401 io=0x330 irq=9 <-- match mypinnacle.conf values -# -# * To use the MPU-compatible Kurzweil synth on the Pinnacle in non-PnP -# mode, add the following.

To actually use the joystick port you will then have -to load the joystick driver itself. Just remember to load the joystick driver -AFTER the pss sound driver. - -pss_cdrom_port - - This parameter takes a port address as its parameter.

These options are only available if this driver is loaded as a -module. - -pss_no_sound - - This module parameter is a flag that can be used to tell the driver to -just configure non-sound components. 0 configures all components, a non-0 -value will only attempt to configure the CDROM and joystick ports. This -parameter can be used by a user who only wished to use the builtin joystick -and/or CDROM port(s) of his PSS sound card. If this driver is loaded with this -parameter and with the parameter below set to true then a user can safely unload -this driver with the following command "rmmod pss && rmmod ad1848 && rmmod -mpu401 && rmmod sound && rmmod soundcore" and retain the full functionality of -his CDROM and/or joystick port(s) while gaining back the memory previously used -by the sound drivers. This default setting of this parameter is 0 to retain -full behavioral compatibility with previous versions of this driver. - -pss_keep_settings - - This parameter can be used to specify whether you want the driver to reset -all emulations whenever its unloaded. This can be useful for those who are -sharing resources (io ports, IRQ's, DMA's) between different ISA cards. This -flag can also be useful in that future versions of this driver may reset all -emulations by default on the driver's unloading (as it probably should), so -specifying it now will ensure that all future versions of this driver will -continue to work as expected. The default value of this parameter is 1 to -retain full behavioral compatibility with previous versions of this driver. - -pss_firmware - - This parameter can be used to specify the file containing the firmware -code so that a user could tell the driver where that file is located instead -of having to put it in a predefined location with a predefined name.

Tell me what you suggest to be -changed or what you have planned to do. Also ensure you are using the -very latest (development) version of OSS/Free since the change may already be -implemented there. In general it's a major waste of time to try to improve a -several months old version. Information about the latest version can be found -from http://www.opensound.com/ossfree. In general there is no point in -sending me patches relative to production kernels. - -Sponsors etc. -------------- - -The following companies have greatly helped development of this driver -in form of a free copy of their product: - -Novell, Inc. UnixWare personal edition + SDK -The Santa Cruz Operation, Inc. A SCO OpenServer + SDK -Ensoniq Corp, a SoundScape card and extensive amount of assistance -MediaTrix Peripherals Inc, a AudioTrix Pro card + SDK -Acer, Inc. a pair of AcerMagic S23 cards. - -In addition the following companies have provided me sufficient amount -of technical information at least some of their products (free or $$$): - -Advanced Gravis Computer Technology Ltd. -Media Vision Inc. -Analog Devices Inc. -Logitech Inc. -Aztech Labs Inc. -Crystal Semiconductor Corporation, -Integrated Circuit Systems Inc. -OAK Technology -OPTi -Turtle Beach -miro -Ad Lib Inc. ($$) -Music Quest Inc. ($$) -Creative Labs ($$$) - -If you have some problems -========================= - -Read the sound HOWTO (sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/docs/...?). -Also look at the home page (http://www.opensound.com/ossfree). It may -contain info about some recent bug fixes. - -It's likely that you have some problems when trying to use the sound driver -first time. Sound cards don't have standard configuration so there are no -good default configuration to use. Please try to use same I/O, DMA and IRQ -values for the sound card than with DOS. - -If you get an error message when trying to use the driver, please look -at /var/adm/messages for more verbose error message. - - -The following errors are likely with /dev/dsp and /dev/audio. - - - "No such device or address". - This error indicates that there are no suitable hardware for the - device file or the sound driver has been compiled without support for - this particular device. For example /dev/audio and /dev/dsp will not - work if "digitized voice support" was not enabled during "make config". - - - "Device or resource busy". Probably the IRQ (or DMA) channel - required by the sound card is in use by some other device/driver. - - - "I/O error". Almost certainly (99%) it's an IRQ or DMA conflict. - Look at the kernel messages in /var/adm/notice for more info. - - - "Invalid argument". The application is calling ioctl() - with impossible parameters. Check that the application is - for sound driver version 2.X or later. - -Linux installation -================== - -IMPORTANT! Read this if you are installing a separately - distributed version of this driver. - - Check that your kernel version works with this - release of the driver (see Readme). Also verify - that your current kernel version doesn't have more - recent sound driver version than this one. IT'S HIGHLY - RECOMMENDED THAT YOU USE THE SOUND DRIVER VERSION THAT - IS DISTRIBUTED WITH KERNEL SOURCES. - -- When installing separately distributed sound driver you should first - read the above notice. Then try to find proper directory where and how - to install the driver sources. You should not try to install a separately - distributed driver version if you are not able to find the proper way - yourself (in this case use the version that is distributed with kernel - sources). Remove old version of linux/drivers/sound directory before - installing new files. - -- To build the device files you need to run the enclosed shell script - (see below). You need to do this only when installing sound driver - first time or when upgrading to much recent version than the earlier - one. - -- Configure and compile Linux as normally (remember to include the - sound support during "make config"). Please refer to kernel documentation - for instructions about configuring and compiling kernel. File Readme.cards - contains card specific instructions for configuring this driver for - use with various sound cards. - -Boot time configuration (using lilo and insmod) ------------------------------------------------ - -This information has been removed. Too many users didn't believe -that it's really not necessary to use this method. Please look at -Readme of sound driver version 3.0.1 if you still want to use this method. - -Problems --------- - -Common error messages: - -- /dev/???????: No such file or directory. -Run the script at the end of this file. - -- /dev/???????: No such device. -You are not running kernel which contains the sound driver. When using -modularized sound driver this error means that the sound driver is not -loaded. - -- /dev/????: No such device or address. -Sound driver didn't detect suitable card when initializing. Please look at -Readme.cards for info about configuring the driver with your card. Also -check for possible boot (insmod) time error messages in /var/adm/messages. - -- Other messages or problems -Please check http://www.opensound.com/ossfree for more info. - -Configuring version 3.8 (for Linux) with some common sound cards -================================================================ - -This document describes configuring sound cards with the freeware version of -Open Sound Systems (OSS/Free). Information about the commercial version -(OSS/Linux) and its configuration is available from -http://www.opensound.com/linux.html. Information presented here is -not valid for OSS/Linux. - -If you are unsure about how to configure OSS/Free -you can download the free evaluation version of OSS/Linux from the above -address. There is a chance that it can autodetect your sound card. In this case -you can use the information included in soundon.log when configuring OSS/Free. - - -IMPORTANT! This document covers only cards that were "known" when - this driver version was released. Please look at - http://www.opensound.com/ossfree for info about - cards introduced recently. - - When configuring the sound driver, you should carefully - check each sound configuration option (particularly - "Support for /dev/dsp and /dev/audio"). The default values - offered by these programs are not necessarily valid. - - -THE BIGGEST MISTAKES YOU CAN MAKE -================================= - -1. Assuming that the card is Sound Blaster compatible when it's not. --------------------------------------------------------------------- - -The number one mistake is to assume that your card is compatible with -Sound Blaster. Only the cards made by Creative Technology or which have -one or more chips labeled by Creative are SB compatible. In addition there -are few sound chipsets which are SB compatible in Linux such as ESS1688 or -Jazz16. Note that SB compatibility in DOS/Windows does _NOT_ mean anything -in Linux. - -IF YOU REALLY ARE 150% SURE YOU HAVE A SOUND BLASTER YOU CAN SKIP THE REST OF -THIS CHAPTER. - -For most other "supposed to be SB compatible" cards you have to use other -than SB drivers (see below). It is possible to get most sound cards to work -in SB mode but in general it's a complete waste of time. There are several -problems which you will encounter by using SB mode with cards that are not -truly SB compatible: - -- The SB emulation is at most SB Pro (DSP version 3.x) which means that -you get only 8 bit audio (there is always an another ("native") mode which -gives the 16 bit capability). The 8 bit only operation is the reason why -many users claim that sound quality in Linux is much worse than in DOS. -In addition some applications require 16 bit mode and they produce just -noise with a 8 bit only device. -- The card may work only in some cases but refuse to work most of the -time. The SB compatible mode always requires special initialization which is -done by the DOS/Windows drivers. This kind of cards work in Linux after -you have warm booted it after DOS but they don't work after cold boot -(power on or reset). -- You get the famous "DMA timed out" messages. Usually all SB clones have -software selectable IRQ and DMA settings. If the (power on default) values -currently used by the card don't match configuration of the driver you will -get the above error message whenever you try to record or play. There are -few other reasons to the DMA timeout message but using the SB mode seems -to be the most common cause. - -2. Trying to use a PnP (Plug & Play) card just like an ordinary sound card --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -Plug & Play is a protocol defined by Intel and Microsoft. It lets operating -systems to easily identify and reconfigure I/O ports, IRQs and DMAs of ISA -cards. The problem with PnP cards is that the standard Linux doesn't currently -(versions 2.1.x and earlier) don't support PnP. This means that you will have -to use some special tricks (see later) to get a PnP card alive. Many PnP cards -work after they have been initialized but this is not always the case. - -There are sometimes both PnP and non-PnP versions of the same sound card. -The non-PnP version is the original model which usually has been discontinued -more than an year ago. The PnP version has the same name but with "PnP" -appended to it (sometimes not). This causes major confusion since the non-PnP -model works with Linux but the PnP one doesn't. - -You should carefully check if "Plug & Play" or "PnP" is mentioned in the name -of the card or in the documentation or package that came with the card. -Everything described in the rest of this document is not necessarily valid for -PnP models of sound cards even you have managed to wake up the card properly. -Many PnP cards are simply too different from their non-PnP ancestors which are -covered by this document. - - -Cards that are not (fully) supported by this driver -=================================================== - -See http://www.opensound.com/ossfree for information about sound cards -to be supported in future. - - -How to use sound without recompiling kernel and/or sound driver -=============================================================== - -There is a commercial sound driver which comes in precompiled form and doesn't -require recompiling of the kernel. See http://www.4Front-tech.com/oss.html for -more info. - - -Configuring PnP cards -===================== - -New versions of most sound cards use the so-called ISA PnP protocol for -soft configuring their I/O, IRQ, DMA and shared memory resources. -Currently at least cards made by Creative Technology (SB32 and SB32AWE -PnP), Gravis (GUS PnP and GUS PnP Pro), Ensoniq (Soundscape PnP) and -Aztech (some Sound Galaxy models) use PnP technology. The CS4232/4236 audio -chip by Crystal Semiconductor (Intel Atlantis, HP Pavilion and many other -motherboards) is also based on PnP technology but there is a "native" driver -available for it (see information about CS4232 later in this document). - -PnP sound cards (as well as most other PnP ISA cards) are not supported -by this version of the driver . Proper -support for them should be released during 97 once the kernel level -PnP support is available. - -There is a method to get most of the PnP cards to work. The basic method -is the following: - -1) Boot DOS so the card's DOS drivers have a chance to initialize it. -2) _Cold_ boot to Linux by using "loadlin.exe". Hitting ctrl-alt-del -works with older machines but causes a hard reset of all cards on recent -(Pentium) machines. -3) If you have the sound driver in Linux configured properly, the card should -work now. "Proper" means that I/O, IRQ and DMA settings are the same as in -DOS. The hard part is to find which settings were used. See the documentation of -your card for more info. - -Windows 95 could work as well as DOS but running loadlin may be difficult. -Probably you should "shut down" your machine to MS-DOS mode before running it. - -Some machines have a BIOS utility for setting PnP resources. This is a good -way to configure some cards. In this case you don't need to boot DOS/Win95 -before starting Linux. - -Another way to initialize PnP cards without DOS/Win95 is a Linux based -PnP isolation tool. When writing this there is a pre alpha test version -of such a tool available from ftp://ftp.demon.co.uk/pub/unix/linux/utils. The -file is called isapnptools-*. Please note that this tool is just a temporary -solution which may be incompatible with future kernel versions having proper -support for PnP cards. There are bugs in setting DMA channels in earlier -versions of isapnptools so at least version 1.6 is required with sound cards. - -Yet another way to use PnP cards is to use (commercial) OSS/Linux drivers. See -http://www.opensound.com/linux.html for more info. This is probably the way you -should do it if you don't want to spend time recompiling the kernel and -required tools. - - -Read this before trying to configure the driver -=============================================== - -There are currently many cards that work with this driver. Some of the cards -have native support while others work since they emulate some other -card (usually SB, MSS/WSS and/or MPU401). The following cards have native -support in the driver. Detailed instructions for configuring these cards -will be given later in this document. - -Pro Audio Spectrum 16 (PAS16) and compatibles: - Pro Audio Spectrum 16 - Pro Audio Studio 16 - Logitech Sound Man 16 - NOTE! The original Pro Audio Spectrum as well as the PAS+ are not - and will not be supported by the driver. - -Media Vision Jazz16 based cards - Pro Sonic 16 - Logitech SoundMan Wave - (Other Jazz based cards should work but I don't have any reports - about them). - -Sound Blasters - SB 1.0 to 2.0 - SB Pro - SB 16 - SB32/64/AWE - Configure SB32/64/AWE just like SB16. See lowlevel/README.awe - for information about using the wave table synth. - NOTE! AWE63/Gold and 16/32/AWE "PnP" cards need to be activated - using isapnptools before they work with OSS/Free. - SB16 compatible cards by other manufacturers than Creative. - You have been fooled since there are _no_ SB16 compatible - cards on the market (as of May 1997). It's likely that your card - is compatible just with SB Pro but there is also a non-SB- - compatible 16 bit mode. Usually it's MSS/WSS but it could also - be a proprietary one like MV Jazz16 or ESS ES688. OPTi - MAD16 chips are very common in so called "SB 16 bit cards" - (try with the MAD16 driver). - - ====================================================================== - "Supposed to be SB compatible" cards. - Forget the SB compatibility and check for other alternatives - first. The only cards that work with the SB driver in - Linux have been made by Creative Technology (there is at least - one chip on the card with "CREATIVE" printed on it). The - only other SB compatible chips are ESS and Jazz16 chips - (maybe ALSxxx chips too but they probably don't work). - Most other "16 bit SB compatible" cards such as "OPTi/MAD16" or - "Crystal" are _NOT_ SB compatible in Linux. - - Practically all sound cards have some kind of SB emulation mode - in addition to their native (16 bit) mode. In most cases this - (8 bit only) SB compatible mode doesn't work with Linux. If - you get it working it may cause problems with games and - applications which require 16 bit audio. Some 16 bit only - applications don't check if the card actually supports 16 bits. - They just dump 16 bit data to a 8 bit card which produces just - noise. - - In most cases the 16 bit native mode is supported by Linux. - Use the SB mode with "clones" only if you don't find anything - better from the rest of this doc. - ====================================================================== - -Gravis Ultrasound (GUS) - GUS - GUS + the 16 bit option - GUS MAX - GUS ACE (No MIDI port and audio recording) - GUS PnP (with RAM) - -MPU-401 and compatibles - The driver works both with the full (intelligent mode) MPU-401 - cards (such as MPU IPC-T and MQX-32M) and with the UART only - dumb MIDI ports. MPU-401 is currently the most common MIDI - interface. Most sound cards are compatible with it. However, - don't enable MPU401 mode blindly. Many cards with native support - in the driver have their own MPU401 driver. Enabling the standard one - will cause a conflict with these cards. So check if your card is - in the list of supported cards before enabling MPU401. - -Windows Sound System (MSS/WSS) - Even when Microsoft has discontinued their own Sound System card - they managed to make it a standard. MSS compatible cards are based on - a codec chip which is easily available from at least two manufacturers - (AD1848 by Analog Devices and CS4231/CS4248 by Crystal Semiconductor). - Currently most sound cards are based on one of the MSS compatible codec - chips. The CS4231 is used in the high quality cards such as GUS MAX, - MediaTrix AudioTrix Pro and TB Tropez (GUS MAX is not MSS compatible). - - Having a AD1848, CS4248 or CS4231 codec chip on the card is a good - sign. Even if the card is not MSS compatible, it could be easy to write - support for it. Note also that most MSS compatible cards - require special boot time initialization which may not be present - in the driver. Also, some MSS compatible cards have native support. - Enabling the MSS support with these cards is likely to - cause a conflict. So check if your card is listed in this file before - enabling the MSS support. - -Yamaha FM synthesizers (OPL2, OPL3 (not OPL3-SA) and OPL4) - Most sound cards have a FM synthesizer chip. The OPL2 is a 2 - operator chip used in the original AdLib card. Currently it's used - only in the cheapest (8 bit mono) cards. The OPL3 is a 4 operator - FM chip which provides better sound quality and/or more available - voices than the OPL2. The OPL4 is a new chip that has an OPL3 and - a wave table synthesizer packed onto the same chip. The driver supports - just the OPL3 mode directly. Most cards with an OPL4 (like - SM Wave and AudioTrix Pro) support the OPL4 mode using MPU401 - emulation. Writing a native OPL4 support is difficult - since Yamaha doesn't give information about their sample ROM chip. - - Enable the generic OPL2/OPL3 FM synthesizer support if your - card has a FM chip made by Yamaha. Don't enable it if your card - has a software (TRS) based FM emulator. - - ---------------------------------------------------------------- - NOTE! OPL3-SA is different chip than the ordinary OPL3. In addition - to the FM synth this chip has also digital audio (WSS) and - MIDI (MPU401) capabilities. Support for OPL3-SA is described below. - ---------------------------------------------------------------- - -Yamaha OPL3-SA1 - - Yamaha OPL3-SA1 (YMF701) is an audio controller chip used on some - (Intel) motherboards and on cheap sound cards. It should not be - confused with the original OPL3 chip (YMF278) which is entirely - different chip. OPL3-SA1 has support for MSS, MPU401 and SB Pro - (not used in OSS/Free) in addition to the OPL3 FM synth. - - There are also chips called OPL3-SA2, OPL3-SA3, ..., OPL3SA-N. They - are PnP chips and will not work with the OPL3-SA1 driver. You should - use the standard MSS, MPU401 and OPL3 options with these chips and to - activate the card using isapnptools. - -4Front Technologies SoftOSS - - SoftOSS is a software based wave table emulation which works with - any 16 bit stereo sound card. Due to its nature a fast CPU is - required (P133 is minimum). Although SoftOSS does _not_ use MMX - instructions it has proven out that recent processors (which appear - to have MMX) perform significantly better with SoftOSS than earlier - ones. For example a P166MMX beats a PPro200. SoftOSS should not be used - on 486 or 386 machines. - - The amount of CPU load caused by SoftOSS can be controlled by - selecting the CONFIG_SOFTOSS_RATE and CONFIG_SOFTOSS_VOICES - parameters properly (they will be prompted by make config). It's - recommended to set CONFIG_SOFTOSS_VOICES to 32. If you have a - P166MMX or faster (PPro200 is not faster) you can set - CONFIG_SOFTOSS_RATE to 44100 (kHz). However with slower systems it - recommended to use sampling rates around 22050 or even 16000 kHz. - Selecting too high values for these parameters may hang your - system when playing MIDI files with hight degree of polyphony - (number of concurrently playing notes). It's also possible to - decrease CONFIG_SOFTOSS_VOICES. This makes it possible to use - higher sampling rates. However using fewer voices decreases - playback quality more than decreasing the sampling rate. - - SoftOSS keeps the samples loaded on the system's RAM so much RAM is - required. SoftOSS should never be used on machines with less than 16 MB - of RAM since this is potentially dangerous (you may accidentally run out - of memory which probably crashes the machine). - - SoftOSS implements the wave table API originally designed for GUS. For - this reason all applications designed for GUS should work (at least - after minor modifications). For example gmod/xgmod and playmidi -g are - known to work. - - To work SoftOSS will require GUS compatible - patch files to be installed on the system (in /dos/ultrasnd/midi). You - can use the public domain MIDIA patchset available from several ftp - sites. - - ********************************************************************* - IMPORTANT NOTICE! The original patch set distributed with the Gravis - Ultrasound card is not in public domain (even though it's available from - some FTP sites). You should contact Voice Crystal (www.voicecrystal.com) - if you like to use these patches with SoftOSS included in OSS/Free. - ********************************************************************* - -PSS based cards (AD1848 + ADSP-2115 + Echo ESC614 ASIC) - Analog Devices and Echo Speech have together defined a sound card - architecture based on the above chips. The DSP chip is used - for emulation of SB Pro, FM and General MIDI/MT32. - - There are several cards based on this architecture. The most known - ones are Orchid SW32 and Cardinal DSP16. - - The driver supports downloading DSP algorithms to these cards. - - NOTE! You will have to use the "old" config script when configuring - PSS cards. - -MediaTrix AudioTrix Pro - The ATP card is built around a CS4231 codec and an OPL4 synthesizer - chips. The OPL4 mode is supported by a microcontroller running a - General MIDI emulator. There is also a SB 1.5 compatible playback mode. - -Ensoniq SoundScape and compatibles - Ensoniq has designed a sound card architecture based on the - OTTO synthesizer chip used in their professional MIDI synthesizers. - Several companies (including Ensoniq, Reveal and Spea) are selling - cards based on this architecture. - - NOTE! The SoundScape PnP is not supported by OSS/Free. Ensoniq VIVO and - VIVO90 cards are not compatible with Soundscapes so the Soundscape - driver will not work with them. You may want to use OSS/Linux with these - cards. - -OPTi MAD16 and Mozart based cards - The Mozart (OAK OTI-601), MAD16 (OPTi 82C928), MAD16 Pro (OPTi 82C929), - OPTi 82C924/82C925 (in _non_ PnP mode) and OPTi 82C930 interface - chips are used in many different sound cards, including some - cards by Reveal miro and Turtle Beach (Tropez). The purpose of these - chips is to connect other audio components to the PC bus. The - interface chip performs address decoding for the other chips. - NOTE! Tropez Plus is not MAD16 but CS4232 based. - NOTE! MAD16 PnP cards (82C924, 82C925, 82C931) are not MAD16 compatible - in the PnP mode. You will have to use them in MSS mode after having - initialized them using isapnptools or DOS. 82C931 probably requires - initialization using DOS/Windows (running isapnptools is not enough). - It's possible to use 82C931 with OSS/Free by jumpering it to non-PnP - mode (provided that the card has a jumper for this). In non-PnP mode - 82C931 is compatible with 82C930 and should work with the MAD16 driver - (without need to use isapnptools or DOS to initialize it). All OPTi - chips are supported by OSS/Linux (both in PnP and non-PnP modes). - -Audio Excel DSP16 - Support for this card was written by Riccardo Faccetti - (riccardo@cdc8g5.cdc.polimi.it). The AEDSP16 driver included in - the lowlevel/ directory. To use it you should enable the - "Additional low level drivers" option. - -Crystal CS4232 and CS4236 based cards such as AcerMagic S23, TB Tropez _Plus_ and - many PC motherboards (Compaq, HP, Intel, ...) - CS4232 is a PnP multimedia chip which contains a CS3231A codec, - SB and MPU401 emulations. There is support for OPL3 too. - Unfortunately the MPU401 mode doesn't work (I don't know how to - initialize it). CS4236 is an enhanced (compatible) version of CS4232. - NOTE! Don't ever try to use isapnptools with CS4232 since this will just - freeze your machine (due to chip bugs). If you have problems in getting - CS4232 working you could try initializing it with DOS (CS4232C.EXE) and - then booting Linux using loadlin. CS4232C.EXE loads a secret firmware - patch which is not documented by Crystal. - -Turtle Beach Maui and Tropez "classic" - This driver version supports sample, patch and program loading commands - described in the Maui/Tropez User's manual. - There is now full initialization support too. The audio side of - the Tropez is based on the MAD16 chip (see above). - NOTE! Tropez Plus is different card than Tropez "classic" and will not - work fully in Linux. You can get audio features working by configuring - the card as a CS4232 based card (above). - - -Jumpers and software configuration -================================== - -Some of the earliest sound cards were jumper configurable. You have to -configure the driver use I/O, IRQ and DMA settings -that match the jumpers. Just few 8 bit cards are fully jumper -configurable (SB 1.x/2.x, SB Pro and clones). -Some cards made by Aztech have an EEPROM which contains the -config info. These cards behave much like hardware jumpered cards. - -Most cards have jumper for the base I/O address but other parameters -are software configurable. Sometimes there are few other jumpers too. - -Latest cards are fully software configurable or they are PnP ISA -compatible. There are no jumpers on the board. - -The driver handles software configurable cards automatically. Just configure -the driver to use I/O, IRQ and DMA settings which are known to work. -You could usually use the same values than with DOS and/or Windows. -Using different settings is possible but not recommended since it may cause -some trouble (for example when warm booting from an OS to another or -when installing new hardware to the machine). - -Sound driver sets the soft configurable parameters of the card automatically -during boot. Usually you don't need to run any extra initialization -programs when booting Linux but there are some exceptions. See the -card-specific instructions below for more info. - -The drawback of software configuration is that the driver needs to know -how the card must be initialized. It cannot initialize unknown cards -even if they are otherwise compatible with some other cards (like SB, -MPU401 or Windows Sound System). - - -What if your card was not listed above? -======================================= - -The first thing to do is to look at the major IC chips on the card. -Many of the latest sound cards are based on some standard chips. If you -are lucky, all of them could be supported by the driver. The most common ones -are the OPTi MAD16, Mozart, SoundScape (Ensoniq) and the PSS architectures -listed above. Also look at the end of this file for list of unsupported -cards and the ones which could be supported later. - -The last resort is to send _exact_ name and model information of the card -to me together with a list of the major IC chips (manufactured, model) to -me. I could then try to check if your card looks like something familiar. - -There are many more cards in the world than listed above. The first thing to -do with these cards is to check if they emulate some other card or interface -such as SB, MSS and/or MPU401. In this case there is a chance to get the -card to work by booting DOS before starting Linux (boot DOS, hit ctrl-alt-del -and boot Linux without hard resetting the machine). In this method the -DOS based driver initializes the hardware to use known I/O, IRQ and DMA -settings. If sound driver is configured to use the same settings, everything -should work OK. - - -Configuring sound driver (with Linux) -===================================== - -The sound driver is currently distributed as part of the Linux kernel. The -files are in /usr/src/linux/drivers/sound/. - -**************************************************************************** -* ALWAYS USE THE SOUND DRIVER VERSION WHICH IS DISTRIBUTED WITH * -* THE KERNEL SOURCE PACKAGE YOU ARE USING. SOME ALPHA AND BETA TEST * -* VERSIONS CAN BE INSTALLED FROM A SEPARATELY DISTRIBUTED PACKAGE * -* BUT CHECK THAT THE PACKAGE IS NOT MUCH OLDER (OR NEWER) THAN THE * -* KERNEL YOU ARE USING. IT'S POSSIBLE THAT THE KERNEL/DRIVER * -* INTERFACE CHANGES BETWEEN KERNEL RELEASES WHICH MAY CAUSE SOME * -* INCOMPATIBILITY PROBLEMS. * -* * -* IN CASE YOU INSTALL A SEPARATELY DISTRIBUTED SOUND DRIVER VERSION, * -* BE SURE TO REMOVE OR RENAME THE OLD SOUND DRIVER DIRECTORY BEFORE * -* INSTALLING THE NEW ONE. LEAVING OLD FILES TO THE SOUND DRIVER * -* DIRECTORY _WILL_ CAUSE PROBLEMS WHEN THE DRIVER IS USED OR * -* COMPILED. * -**************************************************************************** - -To configure the driver, run "make config" in the kernel source directory -(/usr/src/linux). Answer "y" or "m" to the question about Sound card support -(after the questions about mouse, CD-ROM, ftape, etc. support). Questions -about options for sound will then be asked. - -After configuring the kernel and sound driver and compile the kernel -following instructions in the kernel README. - -The sound driver configuration dialog -------------------------------------- - -Sound configuration starts by making some yes/no questions. Be careful -when answering to these questions since answering y to a question may -prevent some later ones from being asked. For example don't answer y to -the first question (PAS16) if you don't really have a PAS16. Don't enable -more cards than you really need since they just consume memory. Also -some drivers (like MPU401) may conflict with your SCSI controller and -prevent kernel from booting. If you card was in the list of supported -cards (above), please look at the card specific config instructions -(later in this file) before starting to configure. Some cards must be -configured in way which is not obvious. - -So here is the beginning of the config dialog. Answer 'y' or 'n' to these -questions. The default answer is shown so that (y/n) means 'y' by default and -(n/y) means 'n'. To use the default value, just hit ENTER. But be careful -since using the default _doesn't_ guarantee anything. - -Note also that all questions may not be asked. The configuration program -may disable some questions depending on the earlier choices. It may also -select some options automatically as well. - - "ProAudioSpectrum 16 support", - - Answer 'y'_ONLY_ if you have a Pro Audio Spectrum _16_, - Pro Audio Studio 16 or Logitech SoundMan 16 (be sure that - you read the above list correctly). Don't answer 'y' if you - have some other card made by Media Vision or Logitech since they - are not PAS16 compatible. - NOTE! Since 3.5-beta10 you need to enable SB support (next question) - if you want to use the SB emulation of PAS16. It's also possible to - the emulation if you want to use a true SB card together with PAS16 - (there is another question about this that is asked later). - "Sound Blaster support", - - Answer 'y' if you have an original SB card made by Creative Labs - or a full 100% hardware compatible clone (like Thunderboard or - SM Games). If your card was in the list of supported cards (above), - please look at the card specific instructions later in this file - before answering this question. For an unknown card you may answer - 'y' if the card claims to be SB compatible. - Enable this option also with PAS16 (changed since v3.5-beta9). - - Don't enable SB if you have a MAD16 or Mozart compatible card. - - "Generic OPL2/OPL3 FM synthesizer support", - - Answer 'y' if your card has a FM chip made by Yamaha (OPL2/OPL3/OPL4). - Answering 'y' is usually a safe and recommended choice. However some - cards may have software (TSR) FM emulation. Enabling FM support - with these cards may cause trouble. However I don't currently know - such cards. - "Gravis Ultrasound support", - - Answer 'y' if you have GUS or GUS MAX. Answer 'n' if you don't - have GUS since the GUS driver consumes much memory. - Currently I don't have experiences with the GUS ACE so I don't - know what to answer with it. - "MPU-401 support (NOT for SB16)", - - Be careful with this question. The MPU401 interface is supported - by almost any sound card today. However some natively supported cards - have their own driver for MPU401. Enabling the MPU401 option with - these cards will cause a conflict. Also enabling MPU401 on a system - that doesn't really have a MPU401 could cause some trouble. If your - card was in the list of supported cards (above), please look at - the card specific instructions later in this file. - - In MOST cases this MPU401 driver should only be used with "true" - MIDI-only MPU401 professional cards. In most other cases there - is another way to get the MPU401 compatible interface of a - sound card to work. - Support for the MPU401 compatible MIDI port of SB16, ESS1688 - and MV Jazz16 cards is included in the SB driver. Use it instead - of this separate MPU401 driver with these cards. As well - Soundscape, PSS and Maui drivers include their own MPU401 - options. - - It's safe to answer 'y' if you have a true MPU401 MIDI interface - card. - "6850 UART Midi support", - - It's safe to answer 'n' to this question in all cases. The 6850 - UART interface is so rarely used. - "PSS (ECHO-ADI2111) support", - - Answer 'y' only if you have Orchid SW32, Cardinal DSP16 or some - other card based on the PSS chipset (AD1848 codec + ADSP-2115 - DSP chip + Echo ESC614 ASIC CHIP). - "16 bit sampling option of GUS (_NOT_ GUS MAX)", - - Answer 'y' if you have installed the 16 bit sampling daughtercard - to your GUS. Answer 'n' if you have GUS MAX. Enabling this option - disables GUS MAX support. - "GUS MAX support", - - Answer 'y' only if you have a GUS MAX. - "Microsoft Sound System support", - - Again think carefully before answering 'y' to this question. It's - safe to answer 'y' in case you have the original Windows Sound - System card made by Microsoft or Aztech SG 16 Pro (or NX16 Pro). - Also you may answer 'y' in case your card was not listed earlier - in this file. For cards having native support in the driver, consult - the card specific instructions later in this file. Some drivers - have their own MSS support and enabling this option will cause a - conflict. - Note! The MSS driver permits configuring two DMA channels. This is a - "nonstandard" feature and works only with very few cards (if any). - In most cases the second DMA channel should be disabled or set to - the same channel than the first one. Trying to configure two separate - channels with cards that don't support this feature will prevent - audio (at least recording) from working. - "Ensoniq Soundscape support", - - Answer 'y' if you have a sound card based on the Ensoniq SoundScape - chipset. Such cards are being manufactured at least by Ensoniq, - Spea and Reveal (note that Reveal makes other cards also). The oldest - cards made by Spea don't work properly with Linux. - Soundscape PnP as well as Ensoniq VIVO work only with the commercial - OSS/Linux version. - "MediaTrix AudioTrix Pro support", - - Answer 'y' if you have the AudioTrix Pro. - "Support for MAD16 and/or Mozart based cards", - - Answer y if your card has a Mozart (OAK OTI-601) or MAD16 - (OPTi 82C928, 82C929, 82C924/82C925 or 82C930) audio interface chip. - These chips are - currently quite common so it's possible that many no-name cards - have one of them. In addition the MAD16 chip is used in some - cards made by known manufacturers such as Turtle Beach (Tropez), - Reveal (some models) and Diamond (some recent models). - Note OPTi 82C924 and 82C925 are MAD16 compatible only in non PnP - mode (jumper selectable on many cards). - "Support for TB Maui" - - This enables TB Maui specific initialization. Works with TB Maui - and TB Tropez (may not work with Tropez Plus). - - -Then the configuration program asks some y/n questions about the higher -level services. It's recommended to answer 'y' to each of these questions. -Answer 'n' only if you know you will not need the option. - - "MIDI interface support", - - Answering 'n' disables /dev/midi## devices and access to any - MIDI ports using /dev/sequencer and /dev/music. This option - also affects any MPU401 and/or General MIDI compatible devices. - "FM synthesizer (YM3812/OPL-3) support", - - Answer 'y' here. - "/dev/sequencer support", - - Answering 'n' disables /dev/sequencer and /dev/music. - -Entering the I/O, IRQ and DMA config parameters ------------------------------------------------ - -After the above questions the configuration program prompts for the -card specific configuration information. Usually just a set of -I/O address, IRQ and DMA numbers are asked. With some cards the program -asks for some files to be used during initialization of the card. For example -many cards have a DSP chip or microprocessor which must be initialized by -downloading a program (microcode) file to the card. - -Instructions for answering these questions are given in the next section. - - -Card specific information -========================= - -This section gives additional instructions about configuring some cards. -Please refer manual of your card for valid I/O, IRQ and DMA numbers. Using -the same settings with DOS/Windows and Linux is recommended. Using -different values could cause some problems when switching between -different operating systems. - -Sound Blasters (the original ones by Creative) ---------------------------------------------- - -NOTE! Check if you have a PnP Sound Blaster (cards sold after summer 1995 - are almost certainly PnP ones). With PnP cards you should use isapnptools - to activate them (see above). - -It's possible to configure these cards to use different I/O, IRQ and -DMA settings. Since the possible/default settings have changed between various -models, you have to consult manual of your card for the proper ones. It's -a good idea to use the same values than with DOS/Windows. With SB and SB Pro -it's the only choice. SB16 has software selectable IRQ and DMA channels but -using different values with DOS and Linux is likely to cause troubles. The -DOS driver is not able to reset the card properly after warm boot from Linux -if Linux has used different IRQ or DMA values. - -The original (steam) Sound Blaster (versions 1.x and 2.x) use always -DMA1. There is no way to change it. - -The SB16 needs two DMA channels. A 8 bit one (1 or 3) is required for -8 bit operation and a 16 bit one (5, 6 or 7) for the 16 bit mode. In theory -it's possible to use just one (8 bit) DMA channel by answering the 8 bit -one when the configuration program asks for the 16 bit one. This may work -in some systems but is likely to cause terrible noise on some other systems. - -It's possible to use two SB16/32/64 at the same time. To do this you should -first configure OSS/Free for one card. Then edit local.h manually and define -SB2_BASE, SB2_IRQ, SB2_DMA and SB2_DMA2 for the second one. You can't get -the OPL3, MIDI and EMU8000 devices of the second card to work. If you are -going to use two PnP Sound Blasters, ensure that they are of different model -and have different PnP IDs. There is no way to get two cards with the same -card ID and serial number to work. The easiest way to check this is trying -if isapnptools can see both cards or just one. - -NOTE! Don't enable the SM Games option (asked by the configuration program) - if you are not 101% sure that your card is a Logitech Soundman Games - (not a SM Wave or SM16). - -SB Clones ---------- - -First of all: There are no SB16 clones. There are SB Pro clones with a -16 bit mode which is not SB16 compatible. The most likely alternative is that -the 16 bit mode means MSS/WSS. - -There are just a few fully 100% hardware SB or SB Pro compatible cards. -I know just Thunderboard and SM Games. Other cards require some kind of -hardware initialization before they become SB compatible. Check if your card -was listed in the beginning of this file. In this case you should follow -instructions for your card later in this file. - -For other not fully SB clones you may try initialization using DOS in -the following way: - - - Boot DOS so that the card specific driver gets run. - - Hit ctrl-alt-del (or use loadlin) to boot Linux. Don't - switch off power or press the reset button. - - If you use the same I/O, IRQ and DMA settings in Linux, the - card should work. - -If your card is both SB and MSS compatible, I recommend using the MSS mode. -Most cards of this kind are not able to work in the SB and the MSS mode -simultaneously. Using the MSS mode provides 16 bit recording and playback. - -ProAudioSpectrum 16 and compatibles ------------------------------------ - -PAS16 has a SB emulation chip which can be used together with the native -(16 bit) mode of the card. To enable this emulation you should configure -the driver to have SB support too (this has been changed since version -3.5-beta9 of this driver). - -With current driver versions it's also possible to use PAS16 together with -another SB compatible card. In this case you should configure SB support -for the other card and to disable the SB emulation of PAS16 (there is a -separate questions about this). - -With PAS16 you can use two audio device files at the same time. /dev/dsp (and -/dev/audio) is connected to the 8/16 bit native codec and the /dev/dsp1 (and -/dev/audio1) is connected to the SB emulation (8 bit mono only). - -Gravis Ultrasound ------------------ - -There are many different revisions of the Ultrasound card (GUS). The -earliest ones (pre 3.7) don't have a hardware mixer. With these cards -the driver uses a software emulation for synth and pcm playbacks. It's -also possible to switch some of the inputs (line in, mic) off by setting -mixer volume of the channel level below 10%. For recording you have -to select the channel as a recording source and to use volume above 10%. - -GUS 3.7 has a hardware mixer. - -GUS MAX and the 16 bit sampling daughtercard have a CS4231 codec chip which -also contains a mixer. - -Configuring GUS is simple. Just enable the GUS support and GUS MAX or -the 16 bit daughtercard if you have them. Note that enabling the daughter -card disables GUS MAX driver. - -NOTE for owners of the 16 bit daughtercard: By default the daughtercard -uses /dev/dsp (and /dev/audio). Command "ln -sf /dev/dsp1 /dev/dsp" -selects the daughter card as the default device. - -With just the standard GUS enabled the configuration program prompts -for the I/O, IRQ and DMA numbers for the card. Use the same values than -with DOS. - -With the daughter card option enabled you will be prompted for the I/O, -IRQ and DMA numbers for the daughter card. You have to use different I/O -and DMA values than for the standard GUS. The daughter card permits -simultaneous recording and playback. Use /dev/dsp (the daughtercard) for -recording and /dev/dsp1 (GUS GF1) for playback. - -GUS MAX uses the same I/O address and IRQ settings than the original GUS -(GUS MAX = GUS + a CS4231 codec). In addition an extra DMA channel may be used. -Using two DMA channels permits simultaneous playback using two devices -(dev/dsp0 and /dev/dsp1). The second DMA channel is required for -full duplex audio. -To enable the second DMA channels, give a valid DMA channel when the config -program asks for the GUS MAX DMA (entering -1 disables the second DMA). -Using 16 bit DMA channels (5,6 or 7) is recommended. - -If you have problems in recording with GUS MAX, you could try to use -just one 8 bit DMA channel. Recording will not work with one DMA -channel if it's a 16 bit one. - -Microphone input of GUS MAX is connected to mixer in little bit nonstandard -way. There is actually two microphone volume controls. Normal "mic" controls -only recording level. Mixer control "speaker" is used to control volume of -microphone signal connected directly to line/speaker out. So just decrease -volume of "speaker" if you have problems with microphone feedback. - -GUS ACE works too but any attempt to record or to use the MIDI port -will fail. - -GUS PnP (with RAM) is partially supported but it needs to be initialized using -DOS or isapnptools before starting the driver. - -MPU401 and Windows Sound System -------------------------------- - -Again. Don't enable these options in case your card is listed -somewhere else in this file. - -Configuring these cards is obvious (or it should be). With MSS -you should probably enable the OPL3 synth also since -most MSS compatible cards have it. However check that this is true -before enabling OPL3. - -Sound driver supports more than one MPU401 compatible cards at the same time -but the config program asks config info for just the first of them. -Adding the second or third MPU interfaces must be done manually by -editing sound/local.h (after running the config program). Add defines for -MPU2_BASE & MPU2_IRQ (and MPU3_BASE & MPU3_IRQ) to the file. - -CAUTION! - -The default I/O base of Adaptec AHA-1542 SCSI controller is 0x330 which -is also the default of the MPU401 driver. Don't configure the sound driver to -use 0x330 as the MPU401 base if you have a AHA1542. The kernel will not boot -if you make this mistake. - -PSS ---- - -Even the PSS cards are compatible with SB, MSS and MPU401, you must not -enable these options when configuring the driver. The configuration -program handles these options itself. (You may use the SB, MPU and MSS options -together with PSS if you have another card on the system). - -The PSS driver enables MSS and MPU401 modes of the card. SB is not enabled -since it doesn't work concurrently with MSS. The driver loads also a -DSP algorithm which is used to for the general MIDI emulation. The -algorithm file (.ld) is read by the config program and written to a -file included when the pss.c is compiled. For this reason the config -program asks if you want to download the file. Use the genmidi.ld file -distributed with the DOS/Windows drivers of the card (don't use the mt32.ld). -With some cards the file is called 'synth.ld'. You must have access to -the file when configuring the driver. The easiest way is to mount the DOS -partition containing the file with Linux. - -It's possible to load your own DSP algorithms and run them with the card. -Look at the directory pss_test of snd-util-3.0.tar.gz for more info. - -AudioTrix Pro -------------- - -You have to enable the OPL3 and SB (not SB Pro or SB16) drivers in addition -to the native AudioTrix driver. Don't enable MSS or MPU drivers. - -Configuring ATP is little bit tricky since it uses so many I/O, IRQ and -DMA numbers. Using the same values than with DOS/Win is a good idea. Don't -attempt to use the same IRQ or DMA channels twice. - -The SB mode of ATP is implemented so the ATP driver just enables SB -in the proper address. The SB driver handles the rest. You have to configure -both the SB driver and the SB mode of ATP to use the same IRQ, DMA and I/O -settings. - -Also the ATP has a microcontroller for the General MIDI emulation (OPL4). -For this reason the driver asks for the name of a file containing the -microcode (TRXPRO.HEX). This file is usually located in the directory -where the DOS drivers were installed. You must have access to this file -when configuring the driver. - -If you have the effects daughtercard, it must be initialized by running -the setfx program of snd-util-3.0.tar.gz package. This step is not required -when using the (future) binary distribution version of the driver. - -Ensoniq SoundScape ------------------- - -NOTE! The new PnP SoundScape is not supported yet. Soundscape compatible - cards made by Reveal don't work with Linux. They use older revision - of the Soundscape chipset which is not fully compatible with - newer cards made by Ensoniq. - -The SoundScape driver handles initialization of MSS and MPU supports -itself so you don't need to enable other drivers than SoundScape -(enable also the /dev/dsp, /dev/sequencer and MIDI supports). - -!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -!!!!! !!!! -!!!!! NOTE! Before version 3.5-beta6 there WERE two sets of audio !!!! -!!!!! device files (/dev/dsp0 and /dev/dsp1). The first one WAS !!!! -!!!!! used only for card initialization and the second for audio !!!! -!!!!! purposes. It WAS required to change /dev/dsp (a symlink) to !!!! -!!!!! point to /dev/dsp1. !!!! -!!!!! !!!! -!!!!! This is not required with OSS versions 3.5-beta6 and later !!!! -!!!!! since there is now just one audio device file. Please !!!! -!!!!! change /dev/dsp to point back to /dev/dsp0 if you are !!!! -!!!!! upgrading from an earlier driver version using !!!! -!!!!! (cd /dev;rm dsp;ln -s dsp0 dsp). !!!! -!!!!! !!!! -!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - -The configuration program asks one DMA channel and two interrupts. One IRQ -and one DMA is used by the MSS codec. The second IRQ is required for the -MPU401 mode (you have to use different IRQs for both purposes). -There were earlier two DMA channels for SoundScape but the current driver -version requires just one. - -The SoundScape card has a Motorola microcontroller which must initialized -_after_ boot (the driver doesn't initialize it during boot). -The initialization is done by running the 'ssinit' program which is -distributed in the snd-util-3.0.tar.gz package. You have to edit two -defines in the ssinit.c and then compile the program. You may run ssinit -manually (after each boot) or add it to /etc/rc.d/rc.local. - -The ssinit program needs the microcode file that comes with the DOS/Windows -driver of the card. You will need to use version 1.30.00 or later -of the microcode file (sndscape.co0 or sndscape.co1 depending on -your card model). THE OLD sndscape.cod WILL NOT WORK. IT WILL HANG YOUR -MACHINE. The only way to get the new microcode file is to download -and install the DOS/Windows driver from ftp://ftp.ensoniq.com/pub. - -Then you have to select the proper microcode file to use: soundscape.co0 -is the right one for most cards and sndscape.co1 is for few (older) cards -made by Reveal and/or Spea. The driver has capability to detect the card -version during boot. Look at the boot log messages in /var/adm/messages -and locate the sound driver initialization message for the SoundScape -card. If the driver displays string <Ensoniq Soundscape (old)>, you have -an old card and you will need to use sndscape.co1. For other cards use -soundscape.co0. New Soundscape revisions such as Elite and PnP use -code files with higher numbers (.co2, .co3, etc.). - -NOTE! Ensoniq Soundscape VIVO is not compatible with other Soundscape cards. - Currently it's possible to use it in Linux only with OSS/Linux - drivers. - -Check /var/adm/messages after running ssinit. The driver prints -the board version after downloading the microcode file. That version -number must match the number in the name of the microcode file (extension). - -Running ssinit with a wrong version of the sndscape.co? file is not -dangerous as long as you don't try to use a file called sndscape.cod. -If you have initialized the card using a wrong microcode file (sounds -are terrible), just modify ssinit.c to use another microcode file and try -again. It's possible to use an earlier version of sndscape.co[01] but it -may sound weird. - -MAD16 (Pro) and Mozart ----------------------- - -You need to enable just the MAD16 /Mozart support when configuring -the driver. _Don't_ enable SB, MPU401 or MSS. However you will need the -/dev/audio, /dev/sequencer and MIDI supports. - -Mozart and OPTi 82C928 (the original MAD16) chips don't support -MPU401 mode so enter just 0 when the configuration program asks the -MPU/MIDI I/O base. The MAD16 Pro (OPTi 82C929) and 82C930 chips have MPU401 -mode. - -TB Tropez is based on the 82C929 chip. It has two MIDI ports. -The one connected to the MAD16 chip is the second one (there is a second -MIDI connector/pins somewhere??). If you have not connected the second MIDI -port, just disable the MIDI port of MAD16. The 'Maui' compatible synth of -Tropez is jumper configurable and not connected to the MAD16 chip (the -Maui driver can be used with it). - -Some MAD16 based cards may cause feedback, whistle or terrible noise if the -line3 mixer channel is turned too high. This happens at least with Shuttle -Sound System. Current driver versions set volume of line3 low enough so -this should not be a problem. - -If you have a MAD16 card which have an OPL4 (FM + Wave table) synthesizer -chip (_not_ an OPL3), you have to append a line containing #define MAD16_OPL4 -to the file linux/drivers/sound/local.h (after running make config). - -MAD16 cards having a CS4231 codec support full duplex mode. This mode -can be enabled by configuring the card to use two DMA channels. Possible -DMA channel pairs are: 0&1, 1&0 and 3&0. - -NOTE! Cards having an OPTi 82C924/82C925 chip work with OSS/Free only in -non-PnP mode (usually jumper selectable). The PnP mode is supported only -by OSS/Linux. - -MV Jazz (ProSonic) ------------------- - -The Jazz16 driver is just a hack made to the SB Pro driver. However it works -fairly well. You have to enable SB, SB Pro (_not_ SB16) and MPU401 supports -when configuring the driver. The configuration program asks later if you -want support for MV Jazz16 based cards (after asking SB base address). Answer -'y' here and the driver asks the second (16 bit) DMA channel. - -The Jazz16 driver uses the MPU401 driver in a way which will cause -problems if you have another MPU401 compatible card. In this case you must -give address of the Jazz16 based MPU401 interface when the config -program prompts for the MPU401 information. Then look at the MPU401 -specific section for instructions about configuring more than one MPU401 cards. - -Logitech Soundman Wave ----------------------- - -Read the above MV Jazz specific instructions first. - -The Logitech SoundMan Wave (don't confuse this with the SM16 or SM Games) is -a MV Jazz based card which has an additional OPL4 based wave table -synthesizer. The OPL4 chip is handled by an on board microcontroller -which must be initialized during boot. The config program asks if -you have a SM Wave immediately after asking the second DMA channel of jazz16. -If you answer 'y', the config program will ask name of the file containing -code to be loaded to the microcontroller. The file is usually called -MIDI0001.BIN and it's located in the DOS/Windows driver directory. The file -may also be called as TSUNAMI.BIN or something else (older cards?). - -The OPL4 synth will be inaccessible without loading the microcontroller code. - -Also remember to enable SB MPU401 support if you want to use the OPL4 mode. -(Don't enable the 'normal' MPU401 device as with some earlier driver -versions (pre 3.5-alpha8)). - -NOTE! Don't answer 'y' when the driver asks about SM Games support - (the next question after the MIDI0001.BIN name). However - answering 'y' doesn't cause damage your computer so don't panic. - -Sound Galaxies --------------- - -There are many different Sound Galaxy cards made by Aztech. The 8 bit -ones are fully SB or SB Pro compatible and there should be no problems -with them. - -The older 16 bit cards (SG Pro16, SG NX Pro16, Nova and Lyra) have -an EEPROM chip for storing the configuration data. There is a microcontroller -which initializes the card to match the EEPROM settings when the machine -is powered on. These cards actually behave just like they have jumpers -for all of the settings. Configure driver for MSS, MPU, SB/SB Pro and OPL3 -supports with these cards. - -There are some new Sound Galaxies in the market. I have no experience with -them so read the card's manual carefully. - -ESS ES1688 and ES688 'AudioDrive' based cards ---------------------------------------------- - -Support for these two ESS chips is embedded in the SB driver. -Configure these cards just like SB. Enable the 'SB MPU401 MIDI port' -if you want to use MIDI features of ES1688. ES688 doesn't have MPU mode -so you don't need to enable it (the driver uses normal SB MIDI automatically -with ES688). - -NOTE! ESS cards are not compatible with MSS/WSS so don't worry if MSS support -of OSS doesn't work with it. - -There are some ES1688/688 based sound cards and (particularly) motherboards -which use software configurable I/O port relocation feature of the chip. -This ESS proprietary feature is supported only by OSS/Linux. - -There are ES1688 based cards which use different interrupt pin assignment than -recommended by ESS (5, 7, 9/2 and 10). In this case all IRQs don't work. -At least a card called (Pearl?) Hypersound 16 supports IRQ 15 but it doesn't -work. - -ES1868 is a PnP chip which is (supposed to be) compatible with ESS1688 -probably works with OSS/Free after initialization using isapnptools. - -Reveal cards ------------- - -There are several different cards made/marketed by Reveal. Some of them -are compatible with SoundScape and some use the MAD16 chip. You may have -to look at the card and try to identify its origin. - -Diamond -------- - -The oldest (Sierra Aria based) sound cards made by Diamond are not supported -(they may work if the card is initialized using DOS). The recent (LX?) -models are based on the MAD16 chip which is supported by the driver. - -Audio Excel DSP16 ------------------ - -Support for this card is currently not functional. A new driver for it -should be available later this year. - -PCMCIA cards ------------- - -Sorry, can't help. Some cards may work and some don't. - -TI TM4000M notebooks --------------------- - -These computers have a built in sound support based on the Jazz chipset. -Look at the instructions for MV Jazz (above). It's also important to note -that there is something wrong with the mouse port and sound at least on -some TM models. Don't enable the "C&T 82C710 mouse port support" when -configuring Linux. Having it enabled is likely to cause mysterious problems -and kernel failures when sound is used. - -miroSOUND ---------- - -The miroSOUND PCM1-pro, PCM12 and PCM20 radio has been used -successfully. These cards are based on the MAD16, OPL4, and CS4231A chips -and everything said in the section about MAD16 cards applies here, -too. The only major difference between the PCMxx and other MAD16 cards -is that instead of the mixer in the CS4231 codec a separate mixer -controlled by an on-board 80C32 microcontroller is used. Control of -the mixer takes place via the ACI (miro's audio control interface) -protocol that is implemented in a separate lowlevel driver. Make sure -you compile this ACI driver together with the normal MAD16 support -when you use a miroSOUND PCMxx card. The ACI mixer is controlled by -/dev/mixer and the CS4231 mixer by /dev/mixer1 (depends on load -time). Only in special cases you want to change something regularly on -the CS4231 mixer. - -The miroSOUND PCM12 and PCM20 radio is capable of full duplex -operation (simultaneous PCM replay and recording), which allows you to -implement nice real-time signal processing audio effect software and -network telephones.

You can de-/activate this mode -through toggling the record button for the wave controller with an -OSS-mixer. - -The PCM20 contains a radio tuner, which is also controlled by -ACI. This radio tuner is supported by the ACI driver together with the -miropcm20.o module. Also the 7-band equalizer is integrated -(limited by the OSS-design).

Please inform me if you know yet another -card which works with Linux, please inform me (or is anybody else -willing to maintain a database of supported cards (just like in XF86)?). - -Cards not supported yet -======================= - -Please check the version of sound driver you are using before -complaining that your card is not supported. It's possible you are -using a driver version which was released months before your card was -introduced. - -First of all, there is an easy way to make most sound cards work with Linux. -Just use the DOS based driver to initialize the card to a known state, then use -loadlin.exe to boot Linux. If Linux is configured to use the same I/O, IRQ and -DMA numbers as DOS, the card could work. -(ctrl-alt-del can be used in place of loadlin.exe but it doesn't work with -new motherboards). This method works also with all/most PnP sound cards. - -Don't get fooled with SB compatibility. Most cards are compatible with -SB but that may require a TSR which is not possible with Linux. If -the card is compatible with MSS, it's a better choice. Some cards -don't work in the SB and MSS modes at the same time. - -Then there are cards which are no longer manufactured and/or which -are relatively rarely used (such as the 8 bit ProAudioSpectrum -models). It's extremely unlikely that such cards ever get supported. -Adding support for a new card requires much work and increases time -required in maintaining the driver (some changes need to be done -to all low level drivers and be tested too, maybe with multiple -operating systems). For this reason I have made a decision to not support -obsolete cards. It's possible that someone else makes a separately -distributed driver (diffs) for the card. - -Writing a driver for a new card is not possible if there are no -programming information available about the card. If you don't -find your new card from this file, look from the home page -(http://www.opensound.com/ossfree). Then please contact -manufacturer of the card and ask if they have (or are willing to) -released technical details of the card. Do this before contacting me. I -can only answer 'no' if there are no programming information available. - -I have made decision to not accept code based on reverse engineering -to the driver. There are three main reasons: First I don't want to break -relationships to sound card manufacturers. The second reason is that -maintaining and supporting a driver without any specs will be a pain. -The third reason is that companies have freedom to refuse selling their -products to other than Windows users. - -Some companies don't give low level technical information about their -products to public or at least their require signing a NDA. It's not -possible to implement a freeware driver for them. However it's possible -that support for such cards become available in the commercial version -of this driver (see http://www.4Front-tech.com/oss.html for more info). - -There are some common audio chipsets that are not supported yet. For example -Sierra Aria and IBM Mwave. It's possible that these architectures -get some support in future but I can't make any promises. Just look -at the home page (http://www.opensound.com/ossfree/) -for latest info. - -Information about unsupported sound cards and chipsets is welcome as well -as free copies of sound cards, SDKs and operating systems. - -If you have any corrections and/or comments, please contact me. - -Hannu Savolainen -hannu@opensound.com - -home page of OSS/Free: http://www.opensound.com/ossfree - -home page of commercial OSS -(Open Sound System) drivers: http://www.opensound.com/oss.html diff --git a/Documentation/sound/oss/README.modules b/Documentation/sound/oss/README.modules deleted file mode 100644 index cdc039421a46..000000000000 --- a/Documentation/sound/oss/README.modules +++ /dev/null @@ -1,106 +0,0 @@ -Building a modular sound driver -================================ - - The following information is current as of linux-2.1.85. Check the other -readme files, especially README.OSS, for information not specific to -making sound modular. - - First, configure your kernel. This is an idea of what you should be -setting in the sound section: - -<M> Sound card support - -<M> 100% Sound Blaster compatibles (SB16/32/64, ESS, Jazz16) support - - I have SoundBlaster. Select your card from the list. - -<M> Generic OPL2/OPL3 FM synthesizer support -<M> FM synthesizer (YM3812/OPL-3) support - - If you don't set these, you will probably find you can play .wav files -but not .midi. As the help for them says, set them unless you know your -card does not use one of these chips for FM support. - - Once you are configured, make zlilo, modules, modules_install; reboot. -Note that it is no longer necessary or possible to configure sound in the -drivers/sound dir. Now one simply configures and makes one's kernel and -modules in the usual way. - - Then, add to your /etc/modprobe.d/oss.conf something like: - -alias char-major-14-* sb -install sb /sbin/modprobe -i sb && /sbin/modprobe adlib_card -options sb io=0x220 irq=7 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330 -options adlib_card io=0x388 # FM synthesizer - - Alternatively, if you have compiled in kernel level ISAPnP support: - -alias char-major-14 sb -softdep sb post: adlib_card -options adlib_card io=0x388 - - The effect of this is that the sound driver and all necessary bits and -pieces autoload on demand, assuming you use kerneld (a sound choice) and -autoclean when not in use. Also, options for the device drivers are -set. They will not work without them. Change as appropriate for your card. -If you are not yet using the very cool kerneld, you will have to "modprobe --k sb" yourself to get things going. Eventually things may be fixed so -that this kludgery is not necessary; for the time being, it seems to work -well. - - Replace 'sb' with the driver for your card, and give it the right -options. To find the filename of the driver, look in -/lib/modules/<kernel-version>/misc. Mine looks like: - -adlib_card.o # This is the generic OPLx driver -opl3.o # The OPL3 driver -sb.o # <<The SoundBlaster driver. Yours may differ.>> -sound.o # The sound driver -uart401.o # Used by sb, maybe other cards - - Whichever card you have, try feeding it the options that would be the -default if you were making the driver wired, not as modules. You can -look at function referred to by module_init() for the card to see what -args are expected. - - Note that at present there is no way to configure the io, irq and other -parameters for the modular drivers as one does for the wired drivers.. One -needs to pass the modules the necessary parameters as arguments, either -with /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf or with command-line args to modprobe, e.g. - -modprobe sb io=0x220 irq=7 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330 -modprobe adlib_card io=0x388 - - recommend using /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf. - -Persistent DMA Buffers: - -The sound modules normally allocate DMA buffers during open() and -deallocate them during close(). Linux can often have problems allocating -DMA buffers for ISA cards on machines with more than 16MB RAM. This is -because ISA DMA buffers must exist below the 16MB boundary and it is quite -possible that we can't find a large enough free block in this region after -the machine has been running for any amount of time. The way to avoid this -problem is to allocate the DMA buffers during module load and deallocate -them when the module is unloaded. For this to be effective we need to load -the sound modules right after the kernel boots, either manually or by an -init script, and keep them around until we shut down. This is a little -wasteful of RAM, but it guarantees that sound always works. - -To make the sound driver use persistent DMA buffers we need to pass the -sound.o module a "dmabuf=1" command-line argument. This is normally done -in /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf files like so: - -options sound dmabuf=1 - -If you have 16MB or less RAM or a PCI sound card, this is wasteful and -unnecessary. It is possible that machine with 16MB or less RAM will find -this option useful, but if your machine is so memory-starved that it -cannot find a 64K block free, you will be wasting even more RAM by keeping -the sound modules loaded and the DMA buffers allocated when they are not -needed. The proper solution is to upgrade your RAM. But you do also have -this improper solution as well. Use it wisely. - - I'm afraid I know nothing about anything but my setup, being more of a -text-mode guy anyway.

If your system works with -either WSS or SB16 and you are having problems with some mixer controls -(no CD audio, no line-in, etc), you might want to give this driver a try. -Detection should work, but it hasn't been widely tested, so it might still -mis-identify the chip. You can still force soundpro=1 in the modprobe -parameters for ad1848.

Moreover, the full-duplex mode is -not achievable through the WSS interface, b/c it needs a dma16 line which is -assigned only to the SB16 subdevice (with isapnp). Windows documentation -says the user must use WSS Playback and SB16 Recording for full-duplex, so -it might be possible to do the same thing under Linux. You can try loading -up both ad1848 and sb then use one for playback and the other for -recording. I don't know if this works, b/c I haven't tested it. Anyway, if -you try it, be very careful: the SB16 mixer *mostly* works, but certain -settings can have unexpected effects. Use the WSS mixer for best results. - -There is also a PCI SoundPro chip. I have not seen this chip, so I have -no idea if the driver will work with it. I suspect it won't. - -As with PnP cards, some configuration is required. There are two ways -of doing this.

As most TV cards come with a short cable which can be plugged -into your sound card's line-in you probably don't need this driver if all -you want to do is just watching TV... - - -Driver Status -============= - -Still somewhat experimental.

There is a insmod option (rate) to tell the driver which -sample rate the hardware uses (32000 is the default). - -One possible source for digital sound is the msp34xx audio processor -chip which provides digital sound via I2S with 32 kHz sample rate. My -Hauppauge board works this way. - -The Osprey-200 reportly gives you digital sound with 44100 Hz sample -rate. It is also possible that you get no sound at all. - - -analog mode (A/D) -================= - -You can tell the driver to use this mode with the insmod option "analog=1". -The chip has three analog inputs.
