Hello,
I am having a problem getting my sound card to be recognized in FC1.
The system is an older Asus PII board, and the soundcard is an Aureal Vortex 1 as shown from 'lspci -v' below.
00:0a.0 Multimedia audio controller: Aureal Semiconductor Vortex 1 (rev 02) Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 11 Memory at e2000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128K] I/O ports at b800 [size=8] I/O ports at b400 [size=8] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 1
If I look at the relevant messages from dmesg, it is basically telling me that it can't config the card I think.
[root@chode etc]# modprobe cs4232
That's very much the wrong module.
The Aureal Vortex stuff is from an old company that has since died, as I recall, and they never released specs. There was a binary-only driver for it at one point; not sure if someone has gone about hacking up something else.
I was wondering about that....like I said, I don't recall where I saw that reference. Anyway, I also tried installing the drivers on sourceforge, but they won't compile. From what I read, Creative Labs bought Aureal and won't release the specs.
Thanks for your help, at least I won't beat my head against the wall with the wrong driver. :-)
