Re: SURVEY: Sound cards that work under FreeBSD

1999-07-30 Thread Rich Neswold
If memory serves, didn't John Reynolds~ say:
 
 1) The sound card make and model/chipset. Please be as specific as you
 can with board rev numbers if possible. Please include wether the card is
 ISA or PCI.

Crystal Tidalwave32 -- plug-n-play ISA card
CSN 1 Vendor ID: XTL0005 [0x05008c62]

 2) FreeBSD version(s) it was tested with. List *all* versions of FreeBSD
 for which you can verify that the sound card does/doesn't work (don't
 include -BETA or -SNAP releases but dates on -STABLE and -CURRENT
 branches are welcome).

Tested with 2.2.8 and 3.2. Doesn't work with either. I'm going to try the
OSS drivers.

 3) Appropriate lines from your kernel config file / PNP setup. i.e. what
 did you have to do to get this card working? Did you need patches not
 committed to a particular branch (if so URLs would be welcome)? Do you
 use OSS drivers instead?

I've tried many different config lines, but couldn't get it to work.

 4) Sample dmesg output for properly configured device. Show the world
 what boot messages relate to the device after properly configured.

CSN 1 Vendor ID: XTL0005 [0x05008c62] is reported from the pnp0 driver.

 5) Miscellaneous notes. State anything not obvious to the casual
 FreeBSD user. Good examples might be, volume is 0 by default, use
 mixer(1) to adjust at boot time, or sh MAKEDEV snd1 for the 1st device,
 not snd0.

 6) Is it OK to publish your e-mail address / name as the contributor of
 this information? You may type in an anti-spam version of your e-mail
 address below if you would like that option instead.

Yeah. Publish my email. I'd like to be notified if someone finds a way to
get this to work.

The card is an ISA Creative Labs AWE64.

This card works with 3.1-RELEASE through 3.2-STABLE, and works fine
under 4.0-CURRENT too.

I've only ever used the VOXWARE drivers.

Kernel options:

Hi Warner,

  : The only line I had to add to my kernel config file was:
  : 
  : device pcm0 at isa? port ? tty irq 10 drq 1 flags 0x0
  : 
  : (This causes a message "pcm0 not found" to appear at boot time but
  :  just ignoring it seems to be o.k. - allthough I would prefer
  :  not to see it, at all.)
  
  device pcm0
  
  does the trick for me.  I think that will work in 3.2.
  
  -current fixes the problem with psm0 not found.
  

Thanks for the hint!  I got rid of the error message :-)

What I still don't understand is the following message at boot time:

  pcm1: using I/O space register mapping at 0xe400

I am wondering why there is a message concerning pcm1 instead of pcm0...

Quirks in config system in -stable cause it to usually attach to pcm1
when it is on the pci bus.  It is nothing to worry about, just be
aware that things like /dev/mixer, et al, need to point to the 1 unit
rather than the 0 unit.

Here's the information about the sound card I am working with:


  1) The sound card make and model/chipset. Please be as specific as you can with
 board rev numbers if possible. Please include wether the card is ISA or PCI.

My sound card is a SBPCI128 by Creative Labs.

  2) FreeBSD version(s) it was tested with. List *all* versions of FreeBSD for
 which you can verify that the sound card does/doesn't work (don't include
 -BETA or -SNAP releases but dates on -STABLE and -CURRENT branches are
 welcome).

I only used the card with FreeBSD 3.2

  3) Appropriate lines from your kernel config file / PNP setup. i.e. what did
 you have to do to get this card working? Did you need patches not committed
 to a particular branch (if so URLs would be welcome)? Do you use OSS drivers

The only line I had to add to my kernel config file was:

(This causes a message "pcm0 not found" to appear at boot time but
 just ignoring it seems to be o.k. - allthough I would prefer
 not to see it, at all.)

  4) Sample dmesg output for properly configured device. Show the world what
 boot messages relate to the device after properly configured.

These are the messages that appear previous to the message "pcm0 not found":

es1: AudioPCI ES1370 rev 0x01 int a irq 5 on pci0.9.0
pcm1: using I/O space register mapping at 0xe400

  5) Miscellaneous notes. State anything "not obvious" to the casual FreeBSD
 user. Good examples might be, "volume is 0 by default, use mixer(1) to
 adjust at boot time," or "sh MAKEDEV snd1 for the 1st device, not snd0."

I had to build the audio device snd1:

# cd /dev
# sh MKDEV snd1

and to use the mixer to set the volume to another value than 0.
I use the following script /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mixer.sh at boot time:

#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/mixer vol 60:60 pcm 60:60 cd 60:60

  6) Is it OK to publish your e-mail address / name as the contributor of this
 information? You may type in an anti-spam version of your e-mail address
 below if you would like that option instead.

Well, I guess, I should not be listed as the contributor, because I 
catched these information out of the mailing lists and would prefer
the original poster to appear as the contributor.

Cheers,

SURVEY: Sound cards that work under FreeBSD

1999-07-22 Thread John Reynolds~


Hello all,

I'm working with Nik Clayton to update FAQ 3.15 to give a more comprehensive
list of sound cards known to work with FreeBSD. That's why I'm sending out
this template to this list. Please take the time to fill it out with
information regarding your sound card so that we can compile a better list
for posterity. I will do my best to keep the list current as FreeBSD evolves
(please send to me or cc: me along with the list--it'll be easier to filter
responses than grabbing them out of -hackers-digest :).

Please be as specific about makes, models, chipsets, etc. as you can. The
author of the first mail received regarding a specific sound card will be
listed as the contributor of that information (unless he/she does not want
his/her e-mail address listed :). Please note also that I would like
information about sound cards that do NOT work (as of yet) under FreeBSD if
anyone has experience with them.

Hopefully, this will go well and we will be able to branch out into other pieces
of supported/non-supported hardware in the future. Thank you.

Survey:
---

1) The sound card make and model/chipset. Please be as specific as you can with
   board rev numbers if possible. Please include wether the card is ISA or PCI.


2) FreeBSD version(s) it was tested with. List *all* versions of FreeBSD for
   which you can verify that the sound card does/doesn't work (don't include
