[sound config] recording from a usb headset
Dear list, I'm trying to get some USB headphones to work on my PowerBook G4. More precisely, I would like the microphone from the headset to work. Playback works, I get some sound, but recording doesn't. Kernel is 2-6-15.1 (vanila Debian) Headset is Bus 005 Device 007: ID 046d:0a02 Logitech, Inc. Debian Testing PowerBook G4 Sound playing via say mpg321 works. KMix works fine, and sees both the Powerbook internal speaker and the headset. Furthermore, when turnign the mic volume up, I can hear what the mic picks up amplified. However, opening krecord, I get a Can't open sound card, no such file or directory. I get the same when trying to use wengophone. (which really is the app I would like to get working) There is no /dev/dsp (I don't know if there should be one). The alsa modules are the ones pre-compiled by Debian, don't know where to get the version, but there are from testing from 2 days ago Thanks for any help, pointers, etc. André -- André Allavena Post-Doctoral Fellow David R.

Dan,
REsponding to you directly as I'm not on the List, but
was searching the Archives.
Not sure this will solve the problem.
But if your Debian is Stable, you may need additional
devices to support sound. Read man MAKEDEV
If you are using the devfs, with 2.4.22-pre10
you must boot with: option devfs=nomount
before you can run:
cd /dev
./MAKEDEV -v -d audio
--
audio: This creates the audio devices
used by the sound driver.
These include mixer mixer{1..3} (Mixer
controls), sequencer (Audio sequencer), dsp dsp{1..3} (Digital audio),
sndstat(Sound card status information), audioctl (SPARC audio
control device)and audio audio{1..3} (Sun-compatible
digital audio). MIDI devices are midi00 through midi03,
midi{0..3}, rmidi{0..3}, smpte{0..3}.
In addition, devices mpu401data and mpu401stat are created.

Thanks!
I will try that once I find out how
to boot with option devfs=nomount !

Re: HELP - CS423x sound config and Debian Potato...
Hello All Again, I managed to get the sound up and running. Just in case other people are reading this, I thought I'd just share what I did (if you know this already, please SKIP!!! ;-) : 1. downloaded kernel source for the kernel I was running 2. downloaded kernel HEADERS (had to, because version.h exists in that package, not the first one. ALSA compile needs that) 3. downloaded LATEST ALSA drivers (0.5.10) 4. followed instructions to ./configure 5. make install 6. make sure the kernel sound support is loaded, along with soundcore (though I have a feeling it would not have been neccessary) 6. run alsaconf 7. selected my card : CS4236B (found out after further hunting on the net) 8. filled in options as given by Win98 Device Manager AND www.alsa-project.org FAQs (VERY HELPFUL!) 9. listen to alsa play a test file 10. run xmms and hey presto! However, I am still uncertain which version of gnome I am using, but the with the gnome sound server, all sound disappears. But I will leave that for another day. I am currently disabling all sounds in gnome by disabling its sound server. freeamp also does not run properly for some reason, but I assume this is also another program-specific configuration problem, not OS driver related. I got my mp3's playin' and I'm happy. Also, alsa-utils did not compile cleanly because it needed ncurses.h from libncurses4/5-dev. However, I still did not manage to succesfully get it compiled yet. I assume that since I have sound this package of programs aren't so critical to getting sound up and running. Thanks again for the info below. I think it showed me that ALSA was the better way to go.

Re: HELP - CS423x sound config and Debian Potato...
Hello Dima, Before this receipt of this post, I did the following: 1. download alsa-drivers, utils, etc. (ver. 0.5.10) from www.alsa-project.org 2. unpacked in my /root/alsa directory 3. ran a ./configure 4. got an error at cannot find 'version.h' in /usr/src/linux/include/linux So I downloaded the kernel source for the kernel I was using (2.2.18pre15). I used gnome-apt to get the package. However a find / version.h -depth yielded nothing. So, as far as compiling from scratch the alsa source files I am kinda stuck. Is what I have done along the lines of what you suggest, or should I do a apt-get install alsa-source and carry on your instructions instead? In any case, I will try to give what you suggest a whirl, since I have nothing else left to try. Thanks again for replying! Carl Tan. === Could some kind soul please help me?

AFAIK, there is no such utility for debian, at least nothing dependable. The best way to set up sound is by compiling your own kernel. On debian you are expected to dump the giant (default) kernel and make one which suits your needs. For further information about compiling your kernel, please look in the debian manual.

Re: easy sound config ?
I just recently made the switch from Red Hat 6 to Debian 2.2. On RedHat there was a little program called sndconfig that did a nice job of recognizing my sound card and getting sound set up for my system. Is there a similar utility for Debian? Or a pointer to awebsite would also be appreciated. I'd suggest a nice little utility called sndconfig ;-) Yeah, it's pretty much the same one you used with RedHat, just ported to take care of the differences in file locations, etc. Use apt-get to download and install it.

Sound config
Hi, I've got a YAMAHA YMF715 sound chip on my mother board and I used to drive it with OPL3 SAx2 when I used Corel Linux. Now I'm using Debian 2.2 but I can't find the sndconfig tool I had in Corel. Apt-get couldn't fetch package sndconfig. I've looked into the mail-list archive and in Feb 2000 I found a message from Yannick Jentsin which should work fine, but it's a bit criptic for me. I don't know where to start from and what to do next. Is there anyone that can tell me what I should do, step by step? I've only the soundcore module compiled in the kernel. Where could I find opl3, opl3sa2? Thanks in advance. --Gian Piero
Re: Sound config
Do this and be very carefull. Take a look at your /etc/apt/sources.list add a line for unstable. Do a apt-get update then do a apt-get install sndconfig. Then do not wait do not pass go do not collect $200 comment out the unstable line from your sources. Then do a apt-get update and press on. Yes there are some problems with doing it this way and yes apt might complain at you in the future but with the 1 or 2 packages I really need (pdq and xpdq) that I have done this with I have not broken anything.

need quick pointer for sound config
Hello, all. I am getting to that point where I need to get the sound running on one of my boxes. It is running Debian 2.2, updated against the stable tree. The machine in question is a Dell OptiPlex GX1 w/ onboard sound (CS4236), video, and nic. I was able to get the sound originally to work in SuSE 6.4 using OSS. Once SuSE updated their kernel for 6.4 to 2.2.16, the version of OSS that came w/ the boxed set no longer worked. Alsa didn't seem to want to work properly, even downloading some of the more recent versions, so I am somewhat leery of trying alsa again. I got the sound working in RedHat 6.2, but it gave a really annoying pop at the start of every new sound. What specifically do I need to do to get sound for this box working? Is everything in the Sound-HOWTO? As far as some of the irq's and dma addresses, how do I figure those out if I don't have windows on a given machine? Thanks for your time, Monte _ Do You Yahoo!?

Sound config in kernel 2.3.99-pre
Hello. I'm currently running woody, and I have an old SoudBlaster16 (one of those that came with an IDE interface for CD-rom), and it works fine when I use kernel 2.3.47. Now, when I was configuring the 2.3.99-pre3 kernel, I noticed that there's something different: I can't configure the SoundBlaster parameters anymore. All I can do is to enable or disable support from it. But it's not working... During boot, I get this: Soundblaster audio driver Copyright (C) by Hannu Savolainen 1993-1996 sb_card: No ISAPnP cards found, trying standard ones... sb_card: I/O, IRQ, and DMA are mandatory It seems that the problem is exactly with those parameters that I couldn't configure... I've read the kernel Changes file, but it says nothing about this. Does anyone know what I can do to get the sound card working with this kernel?

You need to either pass the parameters from the command line (either with an append=sound... in /etc/lilo.conf or at the actual LILO command line) or you need to make your sound a module. I have this in my /etc/modules : auto cs4232 io=0x530 irq=11 dma=0 dma2=3 You obviously need to change things to reflect your own setup, but that should be a good guide.

Sound config error?
I've got a SB16(PnP), configured with isapnptools, and using kernel modules. During bootup, messages complaining that module sound-service-0-0 and module sound-slot-0 can't be located are displayed several times each. I've read through the HOWTOs and the sound docs in the kernel source, but can't find anything about this. Sound seems to work okay, but these error messages bother me. Does anyone know what they might relate to? And how to make them go away? Larry

help with sound config
Greetings. I've recently switched to Debian (from LinuxPPC (home) and RedHat(work)), and I'm enjoying it quite a bit. I installed from the O'Reilly disk, and then did an update to frozen (I think I even got it mostly correct!). I'm currently trying to get my SoundBlaster PCI128 card to work, and I'm on my seventh kernel compile, and I'm starting to pull my hair out. The damn thing won't work! I'm basically a Mac person/PC hardware loser, so I'm afraid there's some basic thing I'm missing. Any help or pointers welcomed, and please don't hesitate with insultingly simple ones, either. One thing, however: there is no M$ OS on this box, and I really have no access to an M$ OS -- which has been part of the trouble. Most of the HOWTOs I've found tend to fall back to DOS for trouble shooting, and that won't work for me. Specifics: frozen/potato, updated afternoon of 4 Feb 2000. Installing 2.2.14 kernel, using kernel-package method as outlined in README. Have tried several combinations of sound in kernel/as module, ES1371 in kernel/as module, and OSS SoundBlaster drivers, in kernel/as module. Based on the output of 'lspci -n', this is a ES1371 card, so I haven't tried the es1370 driver. Should I try ALSA?

sound config with 2.2.10 in slink environment

I have enosniq soundscape elite ISA card, which worked under 2.0.36, after I have made a script at boot-up which initialized the card. Now that same script gives me error (both manually and at boot-up): [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/bin# ./ssinit /dev/dsp: Operation not supported by device My /dev/sndstat is completely empty, since the card is not initializing. i can supply both /etc/soundconf (which worked under 2.0.36) and my .config options for sound module (sound is compiled as a module in both old and new kernel) in 2.2.10 sources; if anyone can help. I have read HOWTOs and docs for soundscape cards at 4front technologies, but I'm afraid I can't decipher the info there to translate into my config. Also, once I have it figured out, how do I ( the Good way) insert module options into /etc/conf.modules (it says not to edit the file...)?

Sound Config
Hi I have a Sound Blaster 16 card in my computer and as I was doing my configuration, I came across these options with no help Choice Setting [Default] Sound Blaster IRQ 7 I/O base for SB 220 Sound Blaster DMA 1 Sound Blaster 16 bit DMA5 MPU401 I/O base of SB 160 SB MPU401 IRQ -1 Audio DMA buffer size 65536 Additional low-level driversNot Installed I simply used the default settings that the system gave me. I'm not sure what they are. Could someone tell me what each of the choices are and how I can find out what the right values in case that they don't correspond with the default values.

It depends, tho, because in a system with a pnp bios, they'll be set by the bios, in which case the above will work. In a system without a pnp bios, you'll need to install isapnp tools to config it right. Then again, if you have a *really old* SB16, it might not be pnp-compatible, in which case you'll have to fuggle around with the jumpers on the card.

kernel patch for sound config woes
