Hello everybody! I have a laptop computer with SiS 630 chipset. My audio card is PCI SiS 7018, integrated in this chipset. I've tried very hard to get it working, but all in vain. I would be very grateful if someone helps me to solve this problem...
Card specifications: /proc/pci: Bus 0, device 1, function 4: Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS PCI Audio Accelerator (rev 1). IRQ 5. Master Capable. Latency=128. Min Gnt=2.Max Lat=24. I/O at 0x1000 [0x10ff]. Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0x38003000 [0x38003fff]. scanpci: pci bus 0x0000 cardnum 0x01 function 0x04: vendor 0x1039 device 0x7018 SiS Device unknown Linux initialization information: ... PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 0 of device 00:01.4 ... PCI: Found IRQ 5 for device 00:01.6 PCI: Sharing IRQ 5 with 00:01.4 PCI: Sharing IRQ 5 with 00:0c.1 ... It shares IRQ with WinModem and with "CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI1420". I have tried a lot of alsa drivers, from old ones to new ones. But the result was the same - it did not detect my sound card. This is strange because 2.4.17 kernel module trident detects my card and seems to initialize it, but there is no sound output at all. This is what alsa modules tell me: Alsa - 0.5.12a: PCI: Found IRQ 5 for device 00:01.4 PCI: Sharing IRQ 5 with 00:01.6 PCI: Sharing IRQ 5 with 00:0c.1 snd: trid: ReadAC97 ERROR ac97 register TIMEOUT!!! snd: trid: ReadAC97 ERROR ac97 register TIMEOUT!!! snd: The AC'97 access is not valid, removing mixer. snd: Trident 4DWave PCI soundcard #1 not found or device busy Alsa - 0.9.0b11: PCI: Found IRQ 5 for device 00:01.4 PCI: Sharing IRQ 5 with 00:01.6 PCI: Sharing IRQ 5 with 00:0c.1 ALSA ../../alsa-kernel/pci/ac97/ac97_codec.c:1414: AC'97 0:0 does not respond - RESET [REC_GAIN = 0x0] ALSA ../../alsa-kernel/pci/trident/trident.c:226: Trident 4DWave PCI soundcard not found or device busy A few things to add: As I have said, kernel trident modules from 2.4.17 did not work too. Trident module detects my sound card, but does not produce any sound. I had the Red Hat 7.0 and Mandrake 8.0, but their precompiled kernels and sound setup utilities also failed. May be you could give me some advise - I am really stuck with this stuff! Good-bye!
