Here is a (German) text I picked up some time ago with example isapnp.conf file & other details. It worked for me but I no longer use the SAx so am a little patchy on the detauils on my own system. Yamaha OPL3 SAx unter LinuxYamaha OPL3 SAx unter Linux Ich habe die Soundkarte auf die "klassische" weise zur Mitarbeit bewegen können : Ermittlung der Interrupts und IO-Ressourcen Initialisierung der Karte mit "pnpdump"/"isapnp" Anpassung des Kernels Laden des Soundmodules Einschränkungen/Bugs Anhang: Isapnp.conf Nachdem es auf diese Weise funktionierte, hatte ich keine Lust zu testen ob es mit den Oss-Paket auch geht. 1. Ermittlung der Interrupts und IO-Ressourcen Unter Windows werden Folgende Werte verwendet: IRQ=9 DMA=0,3 IO=240-24F, E80-E87, 388-389, 300-301, 100-101 2 Pnpdump/Isapnp "pnpdump > isapnp.conf" liefert die Vorlage für "/etc/isapnp.conf". In meinem Fall entsprachen die Werte unter "priority acceptable" denen von Windows. Ohne die Kommentare bleiben folgende Settings: (READPORT 0x0203) (ISOLATE) (IDENTIFY *) (CONFIGURE YMH0020/-1 (LD 0 (IO 0 (BASE 0x0240)) (IO 1 (BASE 0x0e80)) (IO 2 (BASE 0x0388)) (IO 3 (BASE 0x0300)) (IO 4 (BASE 0x0100)) (INT 0 (IRQ 9 (MODE +E))) (DMA 0 (CHANNEL 0)) (DMA 1 (CHANNEL 3)) (ACT Y) )) (CONFIGURE YMH0020/-1 (LD 1 (IO 0 (BASE 0x0201)) (ACT Y) )) (WAITFORKEY) Die vollständige Datei steht im Anhang. Wenn "isapnp isapnp.conf" keine Fehler meldet, kann man die Datei "isapnp.conf" nach /etc/ kopieren. Wenn bei der SuSE "START_ISAPNP=yes" in "rc.config" gesetzt ist, wird die Initialisierung mit jedem Systemstart durchgeführt. 3. Anpassung des Kernels In der Datei "/usr/src/linux/.config" stehen nach "make xconfig" folgende Werte bzgl. des Sound Systems: # # Sound # CONFIG_SOUND=m CONFIG_ADLIB=y CONFIG_MSS=y CONFIG_AUDIO=y CONFIG_YM3812=y MSS_BASE=e80 MSS_IRQ=9 MSS_DMA=0 Die Einträge im Soundmenue von xconfig sehen dazu so aus: Sound card support -> m Generic OPL2/OPL3 FM synthesizer support Microsoft Sound System support /dev/dsp and /dev/audio support FM synthesizer (YM3812/OPL-3) support MSS/WSS I/O base 530, 604, E80 or F40 -> e80 MSS/WSS IRQ 7, 9, 10 or 11 -> 9 MSS/WSS DMA 0, 1 or 3 -> 0 Ein "make dep clean modules zlilo modules_install" aktiviert die Änderungen und nach dem Reboot sollte das Soundmodul arbeiten. 4. Laden des Soundmodules Nachdem die Kerneländerungen aktiv sind und Isapnp arbeitet, sollte "/sbin/modprobe sound" funktionieren. Die Ausgabe von "cat /dev/sndstat" sollte so aussehen: Installed drivers: Type 10: MS Sound System Type 24: MS Sound System (AXP) Type 27: Compaq Deskpro XL Type 1: OPL-2/OPL-3 FM Card config: MS Sound System at 0xe80 irq 9 drq 0 OPL-2/OPL-3 FM at 0x388 drq 0 Audio devices: 0: MSS audio codec (CS4231) Synth devices: 0: Yamaha OPL-3 Midi devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG Timers: 0: System clock 1: MSS audio codec (CS4231) Mixers: 0: MSS audio codec (CS4231) Ein Test mit z.B. "play /usr/share/sounds/au/intro.au" sollte jetzt Krach machen. Mit einer Soundblaster habe ich die Erfahrung gemacht, daß das automatische Laden mit dem kerneld zwei Nachteile hat: Einerseits eine Verzögerung bei jedem Neuladen, andererseits klappt es nach öfterem Laden/Entladen nicht mehr, weil die IO-Bereiche fragmentieren. Wer's trotzdem wagen will, muß in "/etc/conf.modules" folgende Zeile aktivieren: # alias char-major-14 sound Ich habe stattdessen in "/sbin/init.d/" ein kleines Skript zum laden des Sounds untergebracht: #! /bin/sh # # H. Dunkel # /sbin/init.d/sound # . /etc/rc.config test "$START_SNDMODULE" = yes || exit 0 case "$1" in start) echo "Starting sound." /sbin/modprobe sound /usr/bin/aumix -w 100 if [ -d /usr/share/sounds/au ] ; then ( cd /usr/share/sounds/au;\ cat spacemusic.au spacemusic.au intro.au| \ /usr/bin/play -tau - & ) fi ;; stop) echo "Shutting down sound:" /sbin/modprobe -r sound ;; *) echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop}" exit 1 esac exit 0 nebst dem zugehörigen Schalter in /etc/rc.config: # # load sound mudule at startup # # START_SNDMODULE="yes" Mit "sbin/init.d/sound start" und "sbin/init.d/sound stop" kann man den sound jetzt testen. Damit dies auch beim Booten geschieht, müssen noch Softlinks von /sbin/init.d/rc2.d und rc3.d gesetzt werden: Jeweils in diesen Ordnern mit "ln -s ../sound K20sound" und "ln -s ../sound S06sound". Damit wird mit Startup-Sound gebootet. 5. Einschränkungen/Bugs Xmix zeigt nur DSP und Mic an, alle anderen Einstellungen sind blockiert.

hai ,

I am new to my suse 6.3 I have opl3 sa3 (yamaha) sound card. Its not auto detected. Can I configure it ? If so how.. I am an mp3 freak

I used to probe by typing /usr/sbin/sndconfig under root in Redhat 6.1 & that made the sound module loaded for the same sound card...ooops the same does not work for suse.

Somebody please help me out.. My mp3 downloads are waiting
