Hi list, Is there any board and LINUX-driver for ALSA and the above chipset available. I am looking for chipsets like Wolfson WM9713L, AK4528, AK4524 or Cirrus CS4299 or Intel ALC880 or Analog Devices AD1836A It must have 24 bits stereo and about 96 kHz Sampling rate. tia Jörg -- ================= lat=52.35°N - lon=10.25°E ====================== http://www.ibk-consult.de

4-speaker sound not working
by David James Pettifor 10 Nov '04

10 Nov '04

Hi Viewers, I'm hoping someone can help me out with the only remaining niggle (hopefully) that I have with my very first Linux install. I am using SUSE Linux Professional 9.1 and having problems with 4-speaker sound. Basically only my front speakers work, the two rear speakers are silent. YaST picked the CS4614/22/24 CrystalClear Sound Fusion Audio Accelerator driver for my Videologic Sonic Fury soundcard. This works beautifully with two speakers, however I do feel slightly cheated that only half my speaker system is actually playing ball! I have mucked about with all the different sound levels in YaST but the two rear speakers continue to make as much noise as a dead parrot encased in cotton wool. Please can somebody let me know if they have had the same problem with 4-speakers under SUSE 9.1 and if so did they manage to sort it out? Please be gentle with your response. As I mentioned at the start of this message, this is my first Linux install and it is one hell of a sharp learning curve for this here user! -- David .~. / ^ \ /| |\ simply change .\ /. .^.

i have a fresh installation of suse 9.2 pro on my pc with a Asus A7N8x deluxe motherboard. soundcard is on board. and i problems with sound. after the installation sound worked ok with the module snd-intel8x0. after a reboot i had no sound. after a new configuration of the soundcard with yast, it worked again. after a fresh reboot, same problem again. then i tried the linux driver from nvidia which should suite for my motherboard and soundcard: i installed NFORCE-Linux-x86-1.0-0292-pkg1.run. its working: xmms plays music. but after a reboot, i have no sound events in my gnome desktop. the nvidia sound driver nvsound is a oss driver. so i had to change the settings for xmms. do i have something similiar for the sound events for gnome? thanks in advance for any hint! philipp

SuSE 9.0 - sound problem - /dev/dsp0 busy
by Thomas F. Bechteler 09 Nov '04

09 Nov '04

Dear Reader! I am using SuSE 9.0 pro out of the box, I have an onboard soundchip and the Hoontech DSP 24 Value soundcard. Problem: When I am using recording software ("audacity" or "snd") the sound is being recorded. However, when playing back and the playback is finished (either by pressing stop or the sound file is simply finished) the programs are crashing (they close). After this, there is no sound at all! And I could not get it back, even by playing around with YaST. Opening the recording software and trying to play back results then in an immediate crash. The program "snd" gave me fortunately at least this message: open read /dev/dsp0: Device or resource busy [audio.c[1956] linux_audio_open_with_error] With my limited knowledge in Linux I could only get around by rebooting the computer. During the shutdown the screen showed me the following information (I give just an excerpt): snd-mixer: Device or resource busy ... snd-* Device or resource busy failed After rebooting the sound was there. (Just a remark: after crashing the audio it is not possible to restart the X-server by "ctrl-alt-backspace". The computer hangs, no GUI, and also to switch to any console is of no use. I only could brutally switch off the computer.) Also switching off the "arts" was of no use ... What is the reason that the device is busy? And how can I solve this problem? Thanks for any hints and comments Cordially Thomas

zapdvb & a Typhoon DVB card.
by Wolfgang Grinfeld 07 Nov '04

07 Nov '04

I thought you might be in using zapdvb + Typhoon + suse. Steps involved - download SUSE 9.1 personal. - install SUS9.1 without update to the latest version (required for compatibiity with the source) - download suse 9.1 source - download packages: gcc,make,... - use cvs extract of 2004-05-01 for the linuxtv driver (this version has changes for a Typhoon card) - rebuild the kernel (no need to install it) - build the driver - use the insmod.sh of the driver (not modprobe) - download the zapdvb rpm and install - run it There might be a better/faster way, but the above works. _________________________________________________________________ Want to block unwanted pop-ups?
