All,
I have a Dell Lattitude CPi D266XT with an integrated sound chip
CS4237B. I just installed Mandrake Linux 9.0 and enabled
the ALSA driver for the sound. The sound seems to work - I can play an
audio CD with no problem .
However I cannot use the /dev/dsp device which is normally supposed to
be used as a sound device (at least thats how I understand it)
I tried to doing a cat of a .wav file to /dev/dsp with no success.
The /etc/modules.conf file I have is
--------------------------------------------------
probeall usb-interface usb-uhci
alias eth0 eepro100
aliasd char-major-116 snd
options snd snd-major=116 snd_cards_limit=1
alias snd-card-0 snd-cs4236
options snd-cs4236 snd_port=0x530 snd_cport=0x210 snd_mpu_port=0x220
snd_fm_port=0x388 snd_irq=5
snd_mpu_irq=7 snd_dma1=1 snd_dma2=0 snd_isa_pnp=0
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm1-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm1-oss
----------------------------------------------------------
My /dev directory has
/dev/dsp -> sound/dsp
The /dev/snd appears to have the alsa devices : controlC0 hwC0D0
midiC0D0 pcmC0D0c pcmC0D0p seq timer
The /proc/asound/cards
0 [card0 ]: CS4237B - CS4237B
CS4237B at 0x530, irq 5, dma 1&0
Also when the system boots I get an warning about insmod errors -
possible invalid IO or IRQ parameters. I looked in
the /var/log/syslog and /var/log/dmesg but couldn't see any error. It
looks pretty obvious that there is some conflict somewhere
but I'm not sure how to go about debugging this.
Any help will appreciated. Thanks --Javed
