hi all i wrote to alsa user a little while ago with a problem concerning my midisport 8x8. i've since discovered an interesting piece of info, so i thought i'd ask again...
the midisport i have is reported as being hardware version 1.33 by the midisport control panel under windows xp (where it works fine). i looked in the midisport_fw loader, and it seems to only know about hardware versions 1.10 and 1.21. here are the entries in /var/log/messages when it is powered up: Apr 13 14:49:28 [kernel] hub.c: connect-debounce failed, port 1 disabled Apr 13 14:49:30 [kernel] hub.c: new USB device 00:1f.4-1, assigned address 9 Apr 13 14:49:30 [kernel] usb.c: USB device 9 (vend/prod 0x763/0x1031) is not claimed by any active driver. Apr 13 14:49:33 [/etc/hotplug/usb/midisport_fw] load /usr/share/usb/midisport/MidiSport8x8-2.21.ihx for 763/1031/121 to /proc/bus/usb/002/009 Apr 13 14:49:33 [kernel] usb.c: USB disconnect on device 00:1f.4-1 address 9 Apr 13 14:49:34 [kernel] hub.c: new USB device 00:1f.4-1, assigned address 10 Apr 13 14:49:39 [kernel] usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout - Last output repeated 4 times - Apr 13 14:50:00 [kernel] hub.c: new USB device 00:1f.4-1, assigned address 11 Apr 13 14:50:05 [kernel] usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout the midisport never shows up in /proc/asound/cards. i also have a midisport 8x8 at work (hardware version 1.21) which i brought home to check i had everything set up ok. here is what it reports to /var/log/messages: Apr 13 14:53:12 [kernel] hub.c: connect-debounce failed, port 1 disabled Apr 13 14:53:14 [kernel] hub.c: new USB device 00:1f.4-1, assigned address 12 Apr 13 14:53:14 [kernel] devfs_register(unknown): could not append to parent, err: -17 Apr 13 14:53:17 [usb.agent] missing kernel or user mode driver snd-usb-audio that doesn't look good, but it shows up in /proc/asound/cards, and i can get midi in and out of it. does anyone have any idea what's going on? i tried asking m-audio support what the differences between hardware versions 1.21 and 1.33 are, but they just replied that they don't support linux. any help would be appreciated! ian ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
