RE: [Plug] Setup of sound card
|
I have RH6.0, and I am looking for the "make xconfig" program to recompile
the kernel to add a sound module. Does anyone have any info on this.

Assuming you have the sb modules compiled you can just edit your
/etc/conf.modules and add the following lines:
alias sound sb
pre-install sound insmod sound dmabuf=1
options sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 mpu_ip=0x330
For the wavtable, see the docs in the kernel source. They'll tell you
what programs you need. Basicly its the same thing:
alias midi awe_wave
pre-install awe_wave <settings to initialize wavetable>
options <hardware settings here>
Then you can just 'modprobe sound' and it'll work. You should either
have or you can write a boot script to start audio on bootup.
I hope this helps. Change the settings to suit your hardware. Or, if
you're really really stuck, there's always opensound.com but for the AWE
you dont really need it.
Disclaimer: This is from memory and my not be 100% correct but it should
get you started.

I had a clue. I didn't like it. I took it back and exchanged it for an
attitude.
