from /usr/src/linux/Documentation/sound/README.modules
adlib_card.o # This is the generic OPLx driver
It was the ES1868 that specificly mentioned it
-
opl3 is the FM synthesizer--I have not tried the SoftOSS wavetable
synthesizer yet, but I assume it would work as well. Also, doing:
/sbin/insmod opl3
/sbin/insmod adlib_card io=0x388
works, but I believe the sound quality is a bit distorted when playing
MIDI
files.
-
aswell as the MAD16
-
modules.conf has:
alias char-major-14 mad16
options sb mad16=1
options mad16 io=0x530 irq=7 dma=0 dma16=1 && /usr/local/bin/aumix -w 15
-p 20 -m 0 -1 0 -2 0 -3 0 -i 0
To get the built in mixer to work this needs to be:
options adlib_card io=0x388 # FM synthesizer
options sb mad16=1
options mad16 io=0x530 irq=7 dma=0 dma16=1 mpu_io=816 mpu_irq=5 &&
/usr/local/bin/aumix -w 15 -p 20 -m 0 -1 0 -2 0 -3 0 -i 0
