Hi all, I just wanted to tell you that the PCMCIA card bus interface works with the hdsp driver and a multiface (I only tested it with aplay and 2 channels so far, but think it should be possible to get the other channels to play as well). I first had seemingly similar problems to the ones posted on this list with my SuSE 7.3 distribution, but changed to Debian this week.
I use the unstable distribution and first had some problems getting PCMCIA to work. I finally succeeded in the combination of the kernel-pcmcia-modules-2.4.18-686 and the pcmcia-cs package (It didn't work with the package pcmcia-modules-2.4.18-686 which gets installed automatically if you install pcmcia-cs directly, so both packages had to be purge-removed and then reinstalled with kernel-pcmcia-modules... first and then the pcmcia-cs package). I had to remove all references to my built-in soundcard from /etc/modules.conf (and from /etc/modules as I made an entry there as well) and just did a modprobe snd-hdsp right after system bootup with all interfaces connected and powered. The red led flashes and turns off and alsamixer shows the 18 outchannels of the Multiface (I don't know how to access the input channels yet). Anyway, now I'm off trying to get pd to play with it multichannel :-) >From my side a big thank you to the invaluable work of Paul! -- Orm P.S.: My Laptop is an Acer 528TXV with PIII Mobile 850MHz if that's important for debugging purposes. Just contact me off list for any information/log files... ------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: ThinkGeek at http://www.ThinkGeek.com/ _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
