 |
|
Hi,
I'm running a Gentoo 1.4 box with Gaming-Source Kernel 2.4.20. My soundcard is a Hoontech Digital XG! (chip: Yamaha 744). It works under KDE but my HIFI system which is connected via the Hoontech digital out does not say anything. It didn't install any extra drivers I was just compiling my kernel with support for the Yamaha Chipset.
Anyone an idea?
Thank You!

You need to use the Alsa driver for digital in/out on the 744. Look here for the guide. The quick way is to:
| Code: |
env ALSA_CARDS="ymfpci" emerge alsa-driver alsa-lib alsa-utils asla-oss
echo "alias snd-card-0 snd-ymfpci" >> /etc/modules.d/alsa
modules-update
rc-update add alsasound boot
/etc/init.d/alsasound start
alsamixer
# adjust your mixer levels (you'll want to turn on Master, PCM and Wave by
# pressing m to unmute them and the up key to turn up the volume. Scroll
# right and there will be more mixer controls for the digital outputs as well.
|
If you use gnome you can also install gnome-alsamixer. |
