Hi there, I don't know what the OSS mixer for the rme9652 is for, it appears I have one too if I insert snd-mixer-oss and snd-pcm-oss.
I would encourage the following: Use the CVS version of alsa since the 0.5.x hammerfall design is quite different than current. The RME9652 does not have a mixer on board, so it will not be possible to change volume etc with amixer application, you have to do it within your asoundrc file or cause the application to output its PCM samples with low amplitude. I would encourage not using the OSS compatibility layer with the RME9652, rather use the aoss library. If you have the source to your applications wishing to use the rme9652, simply link them with their libraries plus the aoss library, -laoss. The OSS compatibility layer for the RME9652 is a bit flakey and has caused lock-ups on my machine in the past. There is a program called Ardour (ardour.sf.net) that has been written with the RME9652 in mind and is optimized for low latency operations. THe CVS modules you want in the alsa repository are: alsa-kernel, alsa-driver, alsa-lib, alsa-utils, alsa-oss, alsa-conf, and alsa-tools. The alsa-conf and alsa-tools are optional and aren't necessary for anything you want to do, but are handy little programs to have around. Compile with the same order you compiled the drivers you have now. You do not appear to have lock or sync status on your ADAT ports. Try setting the ADAT1 input source to internal instead of ADAT1 (the last control value in your asound.state) You will need to obtain sync status before you can play and capture audio. I hope this has been helpful, if not, feel free to ask more questions. _J _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
