Hello Debian users!! I finnaly initilize my sound card in a Slink using kernel 2.2.9. But I had to load DOS drivers and use loalin before loading the sound modules (Without this step, I can olny use audio CD ). I can play midis and some wav without any problem. But some wav and all my MP3 sounds horrible in linux. I don't have any problem with theses files in DOS/Windows.
I would like to know how to configure this soundcard for playing MP3 and how to ionitilizes this card without booting from DOS fist. This card, by Windows information, is an Aztech Sound Galaxy. Windows 95 use the folowing drivers for this card: AZT 2316/R Audio Driver I/O 0220-022F I/O 0530-0537 I/O 0388-038B IRQ 10 IRQ 11 DMA 01 DMA 00 MPU-401 Compatible I/O 0330-0331 IRQ 09 Using DOS, this sound card uses mode Sound Blaster at ports 220H, IRQ 07, DMA0 In MWSS mode, the card user port 530H MPU401 : Port 300H, IRQ2 On Linux, I use the DOS configuration for loading the modules. I'll show /dev/sndstat data: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /dev/sndstat OSS/Free:3.8s2++-971130 Load type: Driver loaded as a module Kernel: Linux skywalker 2.2.9 #1 sáb jun 5 12:37:20 EST 1999 i586 Config options: 0 Installed drivers: Card config: Audio devices: 0: Sound Blaster Pro (8 BIT ONLY) (3.01) Synth devices: 0: Yamaha OPL3 Midi devices: 0: Sound Blaster Timers: 0: System clock Mixers: 0: Sound Blaster Running lsmod, I receive the following module information: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ lsmod Module Size Used by mpu401 18448 1 adlib_card 604 1 opl3 11208 1 [adlib_card] sb 33064 1 uart401 5968 1 [sb] sound 57152 0 [mpu401 adlib_card opl3 sb uart401] ppp 19948 0 (unused) slhc 4328 0 [ppp] dummy 684 0 (unused) lp 5148 0 (unused) sd_mod 16956 0 (unused) scsi_mod 57256 1 [sd_mod] paride 3340 0 (unused) parport_pc 5556 1 (autoclean) parport_probe 2980 0 parport 7124 1 [lp paride parport_pc parport_probe] Getting /proc/ioports data: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /proc/ioports 0000-001f : dma1 0020-003f : pic1 0040-005f : timer 0060-006f : keyboard 0080-008f : dma page reg 00a0-00bf : pic2 00c0-00df : dma2 00f0-00ff : fpu 0170-0177 : ide1 01f0-01f7 : ide0 0220-022f : soundblaster 02f8-02ff : serial(set) 0376-0376 : ide1 0378-037f : parport0 0388-038b : OPL3/OPL2 03c0-03df : vga+ 03f6-03f6 : ide0 03f8-03ff : serial(set) 0778-077a : parport0 9000-9007 : ide0 9008-900f : ide1 DMA [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /proc/dma 0: SoundBlaster8 4: cascade And viewing /proc/interrupts [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /proc/interrupts CPU0 0: 2034983 XT-PIC timer 1: 14637 XT-PIC keyboard 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade 4: 275357 XT-PIC serial 7: 444695 XT-PIC soundblaster 13: 1 XT-PIC fpu 14: 145325 XT-PIC ide0 15: 29921 XT-PIC ide1 NMI: 0 I hope that someone knows how to config this soundcard for initialize it without DOS boot and play all MP3 files. But, if this sound card is one of the unsupported by the kernel, I'll buy a new sound card (SB 16, 32, any card that can be used by Windows and Linux without any problem). Thanks for any help .
