Sounds card problems

Post by Lord Akir » Tue, 20 Apr 1999 04:00:00



hi, I used the device pcm0 and controller pnp0 to recognise my Yamaha
opl3 FM sound card thingy, it's PcI...

it now knows the card is there but I get the following errors;

dmesg error:
This is a Yamaha SA3, but LDN 0 is disabled

x11amp error:
unable to open the audio device
Unable to reset audio device

fxtv:
haven't got the exact error but it basically says
open '/dev/mixer' failed

I have tried 'sh MAKEDEV pcm0' but it just said it didn't exist, same
with mixer and LDN (tried everything I could think off hehe)....
controller snd0 is not in the kernel as it said to use pcm0 Instead of
it not along side but I thought I'd try and compile it on one of my many
attempts and it would make the kernel.

Hope someone can help :)

My SB16 VibraX acted the same way.  This is a pnp sound card?  If so, I
believe you need to enable the card.  This is done by booting with the -c
and type

pnp 1 0 os enable port0 0x220 port1 0x330 port2 0x388 irq0 5 drq0 1 drq1 5

or something like that.  I believe that you can also put this into some
.conf file somewhere.  If you do a search you should be able to find all the
information that you need.

I justopened case there to see if I could disable pnp and I discovered it is on
board and not a card at all, will this make a difference to what I'm trying to
do?

one problem tho, nothing recognises it except for my tvcard, it auto detects it
whilst everything else is looking for pcm0 but from what I read pnp cards start at
pcm1, I tried creating a symbolic link between the two but the same happened,
anybody got any idea how I could manage this?
