Hello ALSA devs! My biggest question is- what is going on with Linux support for NVIDIA's NFORCE 2/ Soundstorm chipset? Have NVIDIA been contributing code or patches to ALSA or has the ALSA driver been created independently? More importantly, how long before we see PROPER support for the soundstorm under ALSA, instead of just a hacked intel8x0 driver? I want multiple dsp channels and 24-bit audio I/O under Linux please NVIDIA!
I've been thinking of starting a petition as I'm sick of waiting for this. They release new Linux drivers for their GFX cards every other week so why can't (at least temporarily) devote some of their Linux workforce into getting Soundstorm support under ALSA sorted? The main reason for my building impatience is as Mr. PBD said that he's have that long, long, LONG awaited Ardour rc out by now- what happened Paul? We expect release candidates to have bugs- as long as it compiles under the major distros that'll be enough. Bring forth that glorious tarball pleeze! Anyway, I have installed ALSA 0.9.4 on Redhat 9 XFS and although sound output works fine, recording (both line in and mic) doesn't want to work at all (under Audacity CVS, but I tried it with the GNOME sound recorder too). I did get recording to work on this same machine but when I was running Mandrake 9.1 and ALSA 0.9.3. Has anybody else reported/ solved this problem? I tried downloading the latest alsa-driver CVS but for some reason it refused to download past the patches bit and it was complaining about some ALSAKERNEL stuff so I just gave up with that. Hopefully somebody will be able to answer at least part of this multi-faceted whine-fest of a mail. Thanks v. much! dan __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!
