I have seen some people have running SPDIF with a VIA686A Chipset and VT1612A Audiochip. What is todo to enable the SPDIF?

 

I have a STB from Allwell with the same Chipset and a SPDIF in and out onboard, but when I run alsamixer no SPDIF options are seen and when I call

cat /proc/asound/card0/ac97#0 then comes the same output without any SPDIF entries.

 

In this thread I have see it with SPDIF: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg06628.html

 

# cat /proc/asound/cards

I have installed alsa-driver-0.9.4 alsa-lib-0.9.4 alsa-utils-0.9.4 with the Installguide for via82xx from the ALSA-Website

 

Can anyone help me, what I must do to become SPDIF?

 

Thank You
