some of the mixer elements on extigy seem not accessible correctly. and alsamixer (or alsactl) quits due to such an error. > If I try booting linux straight after power-on, alsamixer works, but > I only get one altset in /proc/asound/card1/stream0, no midi, and > strange capture rate behaviour using arecord and other programs. hmm, then apparently this comes from a firmware loaded on windows... > > if alsamixer still doesn't work, please try to build the alsa driver > > with --with-debug=detect option, check the kernel messages and post > > the result. > > > OK, here it is: > Dec 12 21:26:19 demudi kernel: usb.c: registered new driver snd-usb-audio > Dec 12 21:26:19 demudi kernel: ALSA ../alsa-kernel/usb/usbmixer.c:1206: [17] PU [Up >Down Switch] ch = 1, val = 0/1 > Dec 12 21:26:19 demudi kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout > Dec 12 21:26:19 demudi last message repeated 9 times > Dec 12 21:26:19 demudi kernel: ALSA ../alsa-kernel/usb/usbmixer.c:299: cannot get >ctl value: req = 0x83, idx = 0x200, val = 0x1100, type = 3 > Dec 12 21:26:19 demudi kernel: ALSA ../alsa-kernel/usb/usbmixer.c:596: 17:0: cannot >get min/max values for control 2 (id 17) > Dec 12 21:26:19 demudi kernel: ALSA ../alsa-kernel/usb/usbmixer.c:1206: [17] PU [Up >Down Mode Select] ch = 1, val = 0/1 this control is culprit. if you run alsamixer later, you'll get similar error messages for this control. anyway, could you comment out #define IGNORE_CTL_ERROR at the beginning of usbmixer.c? then the error won't be returned but ignored. please use --with-debug=detect in this case, too, at least once, for checking which controls are bad. thanks, Takashi ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility Learn to use your power at OSDN's High Performance Computing Channel http://hpc.devchannel.org/ _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
