RE: [PLUG] via82xx help?


I think I have a setup like that

  Bus  0, device   7, function  5:
    Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82C686 AC97 Audio
Cont
roller (rev 80).
      IRQ 11.
      I/O at 0xd000 [0xd0ff].
      I/O at 0xd400 [0xd403].
      I/O at 0xd800 [0xd803].

er, so it looks like i have that exact setup (this is from /proc/pci).

I had the same problem.  In fact, the sound didn't work on the via card
until I installed the Sound Blaster.  I don't know the current status, as I
don't use sound under linux much, I assume it still works.

Well, if it helps, I have

/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/drivers/sound/ac97_codec.o
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/drivers/sound/es1371.o

loaded. (the first is using the second according to /sbin/lsmod).

that might give you a start.

Subject: [PLUG] via82xx help?


Anyone out there with a working athlon / via82xx onboard sound setup?
I'm using alsa 0.9.4 / kernel 2.4.20. There aren't kernel drivers for
the card yet, but supposedly it works in alsa. Whenever I start alsa, I
get the following in my messages:
Jul  3 14:27:25 crabby kernel: PCI: Found IRQ 4 for device 00:11.5
Jul  3 14:27:25 crabby kernel: IRQ routing conflict for 00:11.5, have
irq 7, want irq 4

Now, there isn't a way to specify what irq to use on the commandline. At
least according to modinfo.

I haven't noticed a way to change it in the bios.... so I'm stuck. My
extra sblive! is in storage and I'd really rather not dig it out... but
I'm starting to run out of ideas.

Anyone have suggestions?
