Ok here is the skinny on the situation. The drivers in the kernel are the same as the ones included in the emu10k1 package with the exception of the ebuilds drivers are newer. (essentially) To just get sound working ... use the one in the kernel. If you want the latest greatest ... compile sound support into kernel and the sblive as a module, then boot with new kernel, then emerge the emu10k1 and hotplug, rc-update add hotplug default, reboot and sound should work. once logged into system play with the emu tools. full list of tools can be found by emu[TAB] look at the usage on each with --usage. If your sound is unclean/distorted ... turn off the boost. This works great for me and a lot of other people, including the other dev that turned me on to trying it. This does not require ALSA in any way and you dont need to edit any of the /etc/*modules* file(s). If you require further assistance email me direct. -- Rodney Rees <manson> Gentoo Linux Sparc Project Co-Lead -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
