I've got an Asus A7V8X-X MB which seems to have a VIA 8233 AC97 sound chip based on the output of lspci:
00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 50) Subsystem: Asustek Computer, Inc.: Unknown device 80a1 Control: I/O+ Mem- BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV-VGASnoop- ParErr- Step ping- SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66Mhz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr-DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort - <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- Interrupt: pin C routed to IRQ 3 Region 0: I/O ports at e000 [size=256] Capabilities: [c0] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1+ D2+ AuxCurrent=0mA PME(D0-,D1-,D2-,D3hot -,D3cold-) Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME- I'm running RedHat 9.0 and the default OSS drivers do not work with the onboard sound. I've install alsa-driver-0.9.3c, but I can not get any sound out of the hardware. I've set the mixer levels and all that and I have a dual-boot with Win2K where the sound works, so I know that the hardware is functional. The only indication that something might be wrong is the printk errors when the snd-via82xx module loads: PCI: Found IRQ 4 for device 00:11.5 IRQ routing conflict for 00:11.5, have irq 3, want irq 4 PCI: Setting latency timer of device 00:11.5 to 64 ALSA ../alsa-kernel/pci/via82xx.c:499: codec_valid: codec 0 is not valid [0xfe0000] I get maybe 15 or 20 instances of this error. I've tried mapping interrupts in the BIOS, but no combination of settings seems to change the "codec_valid" message. Thanks for any suggestions... -poul ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: ObjectStore.
