Hello Group, I am trying to enable sound on some Visara Neoware eterm300 thin client machines. These windows based terminals will PXE boot into Edubuntu LTSP easily, and the usb ports are recognized. However, I am having difficulty getting the sound chip to either be recognized or to work with Pulse Audio / Edubuntu. Following are the client specifications:
Processor - Sis 550, 200MHz Main Memory - 64Mb SDRAM (up to 256MB) Flash Memory - DOC 32Mb (up to 64MB) Graphics - Resolution: Up to 1280 x 1024 - Colors: 65,536 - Vertical Refresh rate: Up to 85hz Audio - 16-bit stereo 44.1KHz audio output Networking - TCP/IP with DNS, WINS, and DHCP - 10/100BaseT Ethernet, twisted pair (RJ-45) - Point to Point Protocol (PPP) I/O Ports - One 2-pin power connector - One 15-pin female VGA compatible connector - One 8-pin female RJ-45 connector - One 6-pin female PS/2 mouse connector - One 6-pin female PS/2 keyboard connector - One 25-pin female parallel connector - Two Universal Serial Bus connectors Power Supply - Input: AC 100~240V, 50~60Hz Dimensions - (W x H x D) 7.66” x .15” x 5.96” (194.5mm x 4.0mm x 151.5mm ) Looking at the board I see a chip marked "AD1881A" and this seems to be Analog Devices AD1881A SoundMax Integrated Digital Audio. So, I tried loading some sound modules in lts.conf, as in the following: [default] X_COLOR_DEPTH=16 X_MODE_0=1024x768 LOCALDEV=True SOUND=True NBD_SWAP=True SWAP=128M LDM_DIRECTX=True MODULE_01=snd-intel8x0 MODULE_02=snd-ac97-codec Still, no sound when the client boots. Pulse Audio manager on the client says connection is refused and shows no sinks or streams, etc. Could anyone offer some advice? Also, another issue with this client: Is there anyway to access the flash memory DOC and use it for some storage or local swap perhaps? It is not seen by Edubuntu currently. Thanks for any suggestions. Bob Hill Forestview High School North Carolina ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
