Re: [Alsa-user] pcm_min.c trouble with modification

I'd guess the driver doesn't claim all the interfaces that the device has. This shouldn't matter. Then if I do and aplaymidi -l it lists the following ports: 40:0AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 1 40:1AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 2 40:2AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 3 40:3AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 4 40:4AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 5 40:5AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 6 40:6AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 7 40:7AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 8 40:8AMT8 AMT8 Broadcast 44:0AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 1 44:1AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 2 44:2AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 3 44:3AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 4 44:4AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 5 44:5AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 6 44:6AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 7 44:7AMT8 AMT8 MIDI 8 44:8AMT8 AMT8 Broadcast Is it possible to have other names generated for these ports through some magic? You could add some entries to the snd_usbmidi_port_info array in the driver source ... Preferably each port would be named after the synth connected to it. Changing port names at runtime isn't supported by the driver. Then when I play the devices I get messages in /var/log/messages saying Apr 11 23:03:56 voodochile kernel: [14700.085974] rtc: lost 28 interrupts Apr 11 23:04:26 voodochile kernel: [14730.054964] rtc: lost 28 interrupts Apr 11 23:04:56 voodochile kernel: [14760.023963] rtc: lost 28 interrupts What's up with that? Every thirty seconds, something on your computer eats some CPU and disables all interrupts for about 27 milliseconds. If you have a laptop, this it probably some fan control or power management stuff done by the BIOS.

I'm still unsure on which version of Ubuntu you are using. You say Ubuntu 2.6, but what is that? Anyway. I'm looking on Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10, and in that, the packages you need to install are as below. libasound2-dev libsamplerate0-dev libsndfile1-dev If you are using a different version of Ubuntu, open synaptic, and check that the package names are the same. I don't know why you are building jack from a source tarball, as both jackd, and qjackctl (the gui for jack, and midi settings) are available from the repo's, but of course it's your choice. Have you got the sounds working yet on your Extigy card? All the best.

Re: [Alsa-user] JACK doesn't find ALSA
The sound only started playing in Firefox through my Extigy when I installed Pulseaudio so not sure about that It's saying I need qmake only one output works and that's headphones the other output for surround/line out is as loud as the phones usually Now Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10 has pulseaudio installed as default (Kubuntu Intrepid doesn't). I have seen problems where folks had very low sound output, and have suggested removing pulseaudio, which has brought the sounds back to normal levels. To remove pulseaudio do as below. You can always put it back later, if you want it. sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio Before doing that though, have a look in alsamixer for sliders that may need to be pushed up. With pulseaudio installed, opening alsamixer in Gnomes terminal as alsamixer, simply shows the pulseaudio slider, so open alsamixer as below. I don't have an Extigy card, but you will probably see sliders like Master, PCM, Front, which may need to be pushed up. alsamixer -D hw:0 The above is if cat /proc/asound/cards shows the Extigy card as card0. You said on a previous post that you'd blacklisted the onboard card, so the above alsamixer command should be correct. If the Extigy card is still shown as card1, open alsamixer as below. alsamixer -D hw:1 Post back, and let us know how you get on. All the best. Nigel.

On the Dell forums people have specifically asked Dell about it and they basically say the microphone is not linux compatible, try asking the ubuntu forums for help, maybe someone can figure it out... despite the fact that it will let you order this monitor along with an Ubuntu computer. FWIW the microphones do not work on Mac OS X without commercial third-party drivers, and there have been numerous posts by Windows users who are having problems getting the microphones to work on XP/Vista as well.

[Alsa-user] need help to setup a 5.1 to 2.0 config
Hi!
I have looked the wiki, tried lot of stuff, asked to some LUG list and
since nothing else worked, I fall back on you
I don't understand clearly how alsa is working...
I started with http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Asoundrc
my need :
I have a 5.1 ogg stream, and a 5.1 soundcard, but I just use the 2.0 one
(I don't have 5.1 speaker system, just headphones)
sadely ogg don't merge the streams as aac lib does to make a 2.0 sound
from a 5.1 one, so when I listen to this stream I just hear partial sound...
so what I need is
- a way to create a virtual 5.1 alsa device that merge all streams
into a 2.0 one
- the device shall accept multiple client (like dmix)
I thought first at using
Plugin: Route Volume
but it don't allow multiple client
I then tried dmix, but the binding field don't seems to work correctly
I tried with
bindings {
0 0 # map front left to left
1 0 # map front center to left
1 1 # map front center to right
2 1 # map front right to right
3 0 # map rear left to left
4 1 # map rear right to right
5 0 # map subwoofer to right
5 1 # map subwooder to left
}
as a first approximation but well didn't worked correctly
can someone help me?
thanks
JLM

In that case, can anyone point me to a tool that makes permanent

alsactl store and alsactl restore do what you want. In theory,
these calls should be made automatically by your distribution's
shutdown/

Thanks.
FWIW, it appears that this (1.0.19) is the problem:
function stop() {
#

if [ -x $alsactl ]; then
$alsactl -f $asoundcfg store
The file as installed from the source distribution, does not have
executable permissions. Or perhaps the '-x' was not intended?
