by Has anybody managed to get a non-VIVO pnp ensoniq soundscape to work?
I have a Gateway 133 w/pnp BIOS running RedHat4.0 kernel 2.0.18
here is my history:
I had a stable kernel that ran well ... with no gimmicks. I started
with the RedHat standard distribution kernel. I went to
/usr/src/linux/drivers/sound and ran makedevices
I tried to configure for soundscape... and failed (what a surprise, with
that stoopid M$ PnP junk). Like a good Linux junkie... I hit the
HOWTO's and then the newsgroups to get the problem solved on my own.
--------------------------
I tried using isapnptools like Hannu Solovein (pardon *ing the
name) suggests.
the pnpdump will be included below, in the form of my isapnp.conf (BIG
posting, but my last straw has been reached)
The problem is, I keep getting a good response to
isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf
"Board 1 has Identity 3f 00 00 0e 29 80 30 d3 15: ENS3080 Serial No
3625 [checksum 3f]"
^^^^^^
but I believe that the 3080 instead of the 4080 might be significant
because nothing works:
cat: /dev/sndstat: No such device
cat: /dev/audio: No such device
cat: /dev/sndtest: No such file or directory
so, you can see that something is wrong.
-------------------------------
Next, i tried to use PnP4kernel
it seemed to compile allright, but when i run the pnpconfig utility thus
compiled, it switches to the ncurses screen long enough for me to
register a blue screen, then dies back to the console.
------------------------------
NEXT, i tried to compile like it was a non-pnp... but I got a
pcibios_init function call error when make-ing zImage
------------------------------
As you may be able to tell... all of my searching, reading and
note-taking led me to scramble my system and my brain at about
equivalent and alarming speeds.
Can anybody help me sort this stuff out?
Thanxinadvance,
