Here's what dmesg says after boot: devfs: 2004-01-31 Richard Gooch ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) devfs: boot_options: 0x0 But during boot, it says it didn't find any device and devfs will be shutdown (or something like that). I used /usr/share/alsa-base/snddevices and the devices were created but alsamixer still gives me the same message: Saving the mixer setup used for this in /var/lib/alsa/asound.state. /usr/sbin/alsactl: save_state:1061: No soundcards found... I think the problem is that I use module-assistant to rebuild the alsa-module and it took the debian package instead of using the original source from Alsa. I will have to read more about make-mpkg to build alsa module without debian package. Is it possible to use module-assisant to do so by copying the alsa files in the right place? Also, I've notice that when I run alsaconf, it detects a soundblaster audigy LS and what I have installed is a Soundblaster Live! 24 bits. I thought the Live! needed the emu10k1 driver but alsaconf install the snd-audigy driver instead. Should I try to change that in the config files? Finally, since it's not about the Soundscape Elite card anymore, should I make a new thread? Thanks.

If you use devfs or udev then the devices will be created automatically.

I read a lot during the past few month to get this card working but everything I tried didn't work so far. It's a pretty old card and all the information I could find was outdated. One thing I know is that I had sound with this card on Redhat (can't remember the version but it was in 1998!). The card is not discovered by the system because I got nothing when I try the isapnp tool. I know the dma, irq, etc. but it didn't work when I entered them as options in the alsa file in /etc/modutil/alsa (I did an "update-modules" after). When I start alsa (/etc/init.d/alsa start), I got this message:"Starting ALSA.../etc/init.d/alsa: Error: alsactl restore failed with message 'alsactl: load_state:1134: No soundcards found...'". None of these cards is really PnP. The Rev3 of this card has a flash rom chip to store settings, but the irq, dma, and io port can only be changed with a DOS utility. The Rev1 cards do not have the chip, and must be _initialized_ in DOS, then warm-booted into any other OS to work. This was a real pain, because most of the cards had a Matshushima CD-ROM connector on-board. If the card wasn't initialized before you booted into another OS (I used it with Linux, OS/2, and NT 3.5), not only did your card not work, your cdrom didn't work, either. The sequence was.boot dos, see config.sys load the driver, and autoexec.bat kick off the driver program, hit ctrl-alt-delete, and boot into the other OS. Thank god for OS/2's boot manager back in those days. Also, after doing a lot of things, I heard some scrachy sounds but this was a few weeks ago. Classic behavior of hitting upon the right ports, but not having the card properly initialized. I used to have this problem with OS/2 all the time. I'm guessing, unfortunately, that you've got a Rev1 card, because iirc, the Rev3 cards don't have this behavior (you'll have to forgive any memory lapses here, I sold this card like eight years ago after endless frustration with it). I don't know if my webcam's microphone interfere with the sound card. Seriously doubt it. Those were some messed up cards. If you look closely, you'll see an 8Mhz motorola 68000 processor on the board, probably. That should give you an indication of how weird the hardware is. I was thinking about getting a newer card but I want to give a try with this one before doing so. Buy a SB-Live card. They're cheap now, and deliver better sound than any ISA card could ever hope to. The SoundScape was pretty cool at the time, but its day is long past.

Sarge with an Ensoniq Soundscape Elite ISA sound card
Hi, I'm running Sarge with an old Ensoniq Sounscape Elite ISA card. I read a lot during the past few month to get this card working but everything I tried didn't work so far. It's a pretty old card and all the information I could find was outdated. One thing I know is that I had sound with this card on Redhat (can't remember the version but it was in 1998!). The card is not discovered by the system because I got nothing when I try the isapnp tool. I know the dma, irq, etc. but it didn't work when I entered them as options in the alsa file in /etc/modutil/alsa (I did an "update-modules" after). When I start alsa (/etc/init.d/alsa start), I got this message:"Starting ALSA.../etc/init.d/alsa: Error: alsactl restore failed with message 'alsactl: load_state:1134: No soundcards found...'". Here is a part of the lsmod snd_sscape 17184 0 snd_cs4231_lib 28128 1 snd_sscape snd_pcm 98440 1 snd_cs4231_lib snd_timer 25924 2 snd_cs4231_lib,snd_pcm snd_page_alloc 10120 3 snd_sscape,snd_cs4231_lib,snd_pcm snd_hwdep 9668 1 snd_sscape snd_mpu401_uart 8128 1 snd_sscape snd_rawmidi 25224 1 snd_mpu401_uart snd_seq_device 9004 1 snd_rawmidi snd 57828 8 snd_sscape,snd_cs4231_lib,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_hwdep,snd_mpu401_uart,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device soundcore 10336 1 snd Also, after doing a lot of things, I heard some scrachy sounds but this was a few weeks ago. I don't know if my webcam's microphone interfere with the sound card. I was thinking about getting a newer card but I want to give a try with this one before doing so. Thanks in advance.
