I wonder if there is anyone who can help me with this one. I have
searched the archives and various places without much luck.
I have an Acer FX-3D sound card. If I type sndconfig as root (you told
someone to use soundcfg which does not work), the probe does not detect
anything. However there is a selection:
AD1816 (Acer FX-3D, HP Kayak).
If I type OK, I get a table, from which to select various options:
I/O Port IRQ DMA 1 DMA 2
0x530 5 0 0
0x534 7 1 1
0x604 9 3 3
0xe80 10
I had printed out the system settings from Windows 98 for all the
devices. I have the following information which seems relevant:
Class: Sound, video and Game controllers
Device: Acer FX-3D MPU-401 Compatible
Resources:
IRQ: 11
I/O: 0300h-0301h
Class: Sound, video and Game controllers
Device: Acer FX-3D Sound Controller
Resources:
IRQ: 05
I/O: 0220h-022Fh
I/O: 0388h-038Bh
I/O: 0100h-010Fh
DMA: 01
DMA: 00
I am not sure what to select (I assume IRQ 5, DMA 1, DMA 0), especially
for the I/O. I tried a couple of different ones, but got the following
error when I tried a sample sound:
The following error occurred running
the modprobe program:
/lib/modules/2.2.9.19mdk/misc/AD1816.o
: init_module: Device or resource busy
Typing OK puts me back to the message saying no PnP or PCI sound cards
found in your system. I have tried several combinations of I/O, IRQ,
and DMAs, but not all possible (there are over 150). I would appreciate
any advice anyone can give me on how do get it working.
Any suggestions as to how to configure this card?
Thanks.
