Hi I have a Gigabyte GA-8IK1100 motherboard with an onboard ICH5R chip and the AC97 CODEC. With ALSA I get no sound at all and with OSS I get sound but at wrong frequency (playing too slow).
I haved tried alsa with gentoo kernel 2.6.1 and 2.6.1-r1 and also with 2.6.1-mm3 from kernel.org. When trying to compile alsa-drivers separately it complains about linux/arch/x86 not existing (and it doesn't). This was after resolving issues with PDE not detected OK by ./configure. thanks /joel parts of output from dmesg: *************************** ICH5: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:00:1f.1 ICH5: chipset revision 2 ICH5: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later intel8x0_measure_ac97_clock: measured 25120 usecs intel8x0: clocking to 48000 ALSA sound/pci/intel8x0.c:2695: joystick(s) found ALSA sound/core/pcm_lib.c:224: Unexpected hw_pointer value [2] (stream = 0, delta: -16, max jitter = 4352): wrong interrupt acknowledge? /var/log/messages after "alsasound restart": ******************************************* Jan 15 13:35:18 p4 PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:1f.5 to 64 Jan 15 13:35:18 p4 intel8x0_measure_ac97_clock: measured 37636 usecs Jan 15 13:35:18 p4 intel8x0: clocking to 48000 Jan 15 13:35:18 p4 ALSA sound/pci/intel8x0.c:2695: joystick(s) found aplay -v: ********* p4 root # aplay -v /usr/share/sounds/startup3.wav Playing WAVE '/usr/share/sounds/startup3.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rat e 44100 Hz, Stereo Plug PCM: Rate conversion PCM (48000, sformat=S16_LE) Its setup is: stream : PLAYBACK access : RW_INTERLEAVED format : S16_LE subformat : STD channels : 2 rate : 44100 exact rate : 44100 (44100/1) msbits : 16 buffer_size : 11025 period_size : 5512 period_time : 125000 tick_time : 1000 tstamp_mode : NONE period_step : 1 sleep_min : 0 avail_min : 5512 xfer_align : 5512 start_threshold : 11024 stop_threshold : 11025 silence_threshold: 0 silence_size : 0 boundary : 1445068800 Slave: Hardware PCM card 0 'Intel ICH5' device 0 subdevice 0 Its setup is: stream : PLAYBACK access : MMAP_INTERLEAVED format : S16_LE subformat : STD channels : 2 rate : 48000 exact rate : 48000 (48000/1) msbits : 16 buffer_size : 12000 period_size : 6000 period_time : 125000 tick_time : 1000 tstamp_mode : NONE period_step : 1 sleep_min : 0 avail_min : 6000 xfer_align : 6000 start_threshold : 12000 stop_threshold : 12000 silence_threshold: 0 silence_size : 0 boundary : 1572864000 when running mplayer on /dev/dvd using OSS: ******************************************* -- Opening audio decoder: [liba52] AC3 decoding with liba52 Using SSE optimized IMDCT transform AC3: 2.0 (stereo) 48000 Hz 192.0 kbit/s Using MMX optimized resampler AUDIO: 48000 Hz, 2 ch, 16 bit (0x10), ratio: 24000->192000 (192.0 kbit) Selected audio codec: [a52] afm:liba52 (AC3-liba52) ========================================================================== Checking audio filter chain for 48000Hz/2ch/16bit -> 48000Hz/2ch/16bit...
