|
|
I have a Shuttle XPC SD11G5 barebone system with onboard Creative Labs SB Audigy LS sound. Alsa says to use the ca0106 driver, but it fails to recognize the "card" properly. There is a fix at https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=1600. I made a patch file for alsa-driver-1.0.10_rc3 and added an epatch line to alsa-driver-1.0.10_rc3.ebuild in my PORTDIR_OVERLAY. It works, mostly: I can play audio through the analog front channel, but the gnome-volume-control applet adjusts the analog center channel. It's a start.
Here's the patch (stored in files/alsa-driver-1.0.10_rc3-audigyls.patch):
Code: | --- alsa-driver-1.0.10rc3/alsa-kernel/pci/ca0106/ca0106_main.c.orig 2005-12-28 15:54:08.000000000 -0800

I'm sorry I don't have a solution, only a question: Are you able to use a microphone ? I have the same Shuttle XPC but didn't have sound with earlier alsa-version, so I went to opensound.com and now use their oss-modules. But there the mic doesn't work so I'm not able to use Skype with that computer. If you can, I would give alsa a try once again.
Thanks. |

I feel kind of silly, but I had what I thought was the same problem with kernel version 2.6.19.1. This kernel has alsa version 1.0.13 includes the SD11G5 fix (fixed since 1.0.11rc3 afaik).
The problem was that I'd been trying to get this 'sb audigy ls' / 'sblive 24bit' / 'sblive 7.1' working using the emu10k1 driver.. WRONG!
The alsa-project wiki under 'supported devices', 'creative', states that the driver for this card is 'ca0106'.
In the latest kernels at time of writing this is the '<*> SB Audigy LS / Live 24bit' option, and not '< > Emu10k1 (SB Live!, Audigy, E-mu APS)' one ... heh, nice try anyway.
Maybe that will save someone frustration.. though I doubt this is an all to common mistake. |
