ALSA Sound setup problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have installed Fedora Core 3. 2.6.9-1.667
According to the documentation it has ALSA in the kernel.

How do I configure it and set it to use my Opti hardware?

What do I put in init.d or rc.d to start it up and shut it down?

What is the correct <alsa-driver>
What is the correct <opti-name>
See below...

The results of;
/sbin/modinfo soundcore

Running kudzu shows;
-----------

This is the correct audio device, and works fine under Windows98SE.

These should be the appropriate available settings

Module snd-opti93x
------------------
 Module for soundcards based on OPTi 82c93x chips.

 port      - port # for WSS chip (0x530,0xe80,0xf40,0x604)
 mpu_port  - port # for MPU-401 UART (0x300,0x310,0x320,0x330)
 fm_port   - port # for OPL3 device (0x388)
 irq       - IRQ # for WSS chip (5,7,9,10,11)
 mpu_irq   - IRQ # for MPU-401 UART (5,7,9,10)
 dma1      - first DMA # for WSS chip (0,1,3)
 dma2      - second DMA # for WSS chip (0,1,3)

 This module supports only one card, autoprobe and PnP.

I have a file - /etc/asound.conf

Something like this should be in a file called /etc/asound.state
But the file is NOT THERE!!!
------------------------------
alias char-major-116 snd
options snd snd_major=116 snd_cards_limit=1
alias snd-card-0 <alsa-driver>
options <alsa-driver> snd_index=0 snd_id="<opti-name>"

# OSS/Free setup
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss

What is the correct <alsa-driver>
What is the correct <opti-name>
