Oh, I almost forgot, the RedHat sndconfig -failed detecting it ;) - So, the big problem still remains, because the sb module wants a -8-bit and a 16-bit dma, which we could not allocate for vibra... it supports -only two 8-bit dma channels, the second one will be passed to the module -as a 16 bit channel, the kernel will yield about that but everything will -be okay, trust us. - The only inconvenient you may find is that you will have -some sound playing jitters if you have HDD dma support enabled - but this -will happen with almost all soundcards... - - A fully working isapnp.conf is just here: - -<snip here> - -(READPORT 0x0203) -(ISOLATE PRESERVE) -(IDENTIFY *) -(VERBOSITY 2) -(CONFLICT (IO FATAL)(IRQ FATAL)(DMA FATAL)(MEM FATAL)) # or WARNING -# SB 16 and OPL3 devices -(CONFIGURE CTL00f0/-1 (LD 0 -(INT 0 (IRQ 5 (MODE +E))) -(DMA 0 (CHANNEL 1)) -(DMA 1 (CHANNEL 3)) -(IO 0 (SIZE 16) (BASE 0x0220)) -(IO 2 (SIZE 4) (BASE 0x0388)) -(NAME "CTL00f0/-1[0]{Audio }") -(ACT Y) -)) - -# Joystick device - only if you need it :-/ - -(CONFIGURE CTL00f0/-1 (LD 1 -(IO 0 (SIZE 1) (BASE 0x0200)) -(NAME "CTL00f0/-1[1]{Game }") -(ACT Y) -)) -(WAITFORKEY) - -<end of snipping> - - So, after a good kernel modules compilation and a 'depmod -a kernel_ver' -you may want to: - -modprobe sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=3 - - Or, take the hard way: - -modprobe soundcore -modprobe sound -modprobe uart401 -modprobe sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=3 -# do you need MIDI? -modprobe opl3=0x388 - - Just in case, the kernel sound support should be: - -CONFIG_SOUND=m -CONFIG_SOUND_OSS=m -CONFIG_SOUND_SB=m - - Enjoy your new noisy Linux box! ;) - - |
