 Posted: Tue Oct 12, 2004 5:45 am Post subject: Sound Card Not Supported |
 |
|
| I have an Ensoniq 5880 Audio PCI sound card, but the kernel doesn't specifically support this (am currently not getting any sound) i compiled it with support for the only two Ensoniq cards that they supported but that didn;t do anything, and i really don't want to enable pci hotplugging, so any help would be most appreciated |

On my system lspci -v:
| Code: | ...
0000:00:0d.0 Multimedia audio controller: Ensoniq 5880 AudioPCI (rev 02)
Subsystem: Ensoniq Creative Sound Blaster AudioPCI128
Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 32, IRQ 9
I/O ports at 9400
Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 1
... |
It uses the 'snd_ens1371' driver (vanilla-kernel 2.6.7)! |

I search the forum, with google and google groups. All I found was that it should work with one of the two Ensoniq drivers (ens1370/ens1371).
Please bring your system up and do a modprobe snd-ens1370/modprobe snd-ens1371. Are there any error messages.
Look into your syslog and try dmesg. Post any messages you get relating to sound.
If you can't get it to work shutdown your computer and have a closer look to your soundcard. Hope you can find the name of the soundchip. |

alright well i did modprobe and
| Code: |
bash-2.05b# modprobe snd-ens1371
FATAL: Module snd_ens1371 not found.
bash-2.05b# modprobe snd-ens1370
FATAL: Module snd_ens1370 not found.
bash-2.05b#
|
but i double checked and i know i compiled the kernel with support for snd-ens1371 driver, so just to make sure i recompiled the kernel with support again, and it gave me the same error, so i did dmesg and here it is

Ok your card seems to be recognized by the kernel!
I guess you cannot load the modules because you compiled the support for it into the kernel and NOT as module. There should be no problem! 
| Code: | $ cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [AudioPCI ]: ENS1371 - Ensoniq AudioPCI
Ensoniq AudioPCI ENS1371 at 0xd000, irq 10
$ emerge alsa-utils
...
$ /etc/init.d/alsasound start
$ alsamixer
$ aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/test.wav |
May be a helpful guide: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml |
