Re: [Alsa-devel] Dell OEM Soundblaster Live 5.1 with different PCI ID

[Jeff Ridenour]

 Just as an update, when I try to use aplay to play a sound, I get this error:

[root@beall-dell-01 sounds]# aplay phone.wav
Playing WAVE 'phone.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz,
Stereo
aplay: pcm_write:999: write error: Input/output error
[root@beall-dell-01 sounds]# 


So i'm guessing there's still a problem with the emu10k1 driver and this dumb oem card?

Hi folks,

I was having the exact same problem, so I tried changing the source using
the diff file provided by Takashi, thanks a lot!  This did make progress
for me, since before, the i couldn't get the driver to modprobe. 

The driver now loads and I can now give gmix/alsamixer to open (couldn't
before).  However, I'm still not getting sound.  when I turn the volume up
and mess with the sliders, I do hear changes in the signal level (i.e. the
noise floor goes up and down), but I haven't been able to get any sounds
or CD's to play.

Is this because the driver really doesn't work?  Or is there something
else that i haven't configured properly?  Any suggestions or response from
anyone would be much appreciated.  (I have a deadline I'm working with,
and I need to decide soon whether I should buy a different soundcard or
not)

Hello Friends,
Dell ships since a month an OEM Soundblaster Live 5.1 (sb0200) with a 
different PCI ID
for original sblive you got 1102:0002
the Dell version has 1102:0006
I got  no sound with the actual version of the sound driver.
Could anyone be so kind to incorporate this into the source code?

please try the attached patch.
this will add the entry as emu10k1 (sb live!).  it seems that the chip
is emu10k1, not audigy.
if it works, please let me know.  i'll commit it to cvs.


thanks,

Takashi
