Re: Sound support in kernel recompile

1997-04-07 Thread Manoj Srivastava
Hi,

Could you mail me a screen dump of the configuration attempt?
 Have you looked at and added the patch found in the file 
 /usr/doc/kernel-package.Problems.gz? 

My SB AWE32 config options are given below, and the sound card
 works fine, I just can't get the wave synthesis to work.

Sound support in kernel recompile

1997-04-06 Thread G. Kapetanios

Hi, 
Following the identification of a subtle bug in kernel-package which 
prefres custom.1.0 instead of custom-1.0 in the command syntax I managed
to recompile my kernel succesfully without sound. When I set the sound
card option to yes in the .config file my recompile breaks down giving
errors about not being able to find some sound drivers. I only want the
generic sound card support since when I put the SoundBlaster option to yes
I get some requests for hardware details which I don't know how to fill
If I leave the default values I get some sort of infinite loop .
Is it possible to recompile a kernel with only the generic sound support
on ? If it is what am I doing wrong ? If it isn't and I must set the
hardware options can I get those values from a proc file or through some
command since my documentation is not good enough ? 
Any help will be greatly appreciated. This is one of the two reasons I
recompiled my kernel anyway. 

 Thanks 
 George

George,
Join the club! I have a SB pro on a machine and ran into the same
problem. I am compiling a list of kernels now, but will get it fixed later
on.
