My SB Live (emu10k1) isn't working at all... I get the annoying "/dev/dsp does not exist" error on kde startup. it worked on red hat, and i know all i need is the emu10k1 drive, so i emerged emu10k1, but no luck :cry: . i probably didn't include when i compiled the kernel during install, but I have no idea what to do...

Thanks for your help

Did you load the module? Try "modprobe emu10k1" as root.

Also, don't forget to add yourself to the "audio" group.

Okay, did that, got this:

/lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r2/kernel/drivers/sound/emu10k1/emu10k1.o: insmod emu10k1 failed


I'm guess that because everything says "failed" it didn't quite work :) .

I have no idea what any of it means...

Thanks again

I read somewhere that I needed to have soundcore.o. Do I need that? B/c I'm purty sure I don't have it. Which means - kernel recompile! That's a whole other thing I need help with - thanks again everyone

there are two ways of getting your card working again..
1
recompile the kernel

    Sound -->
    <*> Sound card support
    <M> Creative SBLive! (EMU10K1)

than make sure you do make modules and make modules_install

without emerging nothing
2

recompile the kernel with loadable module suport

    <M> OSS sound modules

you cand compile also emu10k1 as a module but make sure you __do not__ modprobe it..!!
than type
Code:

emerge emu10k1


for me works both ways..i hope this helps u too

//EDIT
i had the same error message when i tried to emerge emu10k1 with CFLAGS="-march=blabla -O3 -pipe"
make sure you add -fomit-frame-pointer too
Code:

CFLAGS="-march=athlon -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"

still not working! I recompiled the kernel with the emu10k1 support (it was enabled by default) and it didn't work. I still get the error message on kde startup:

Code:

Sound server informational message:
Error while initializing the sound driver:
device /dev/dsp can't be opened (No such file or directory)
The sound server will continue, using the null output device.


I can't figure out for the life of me why this isn't working...

Thanks for your help

That is strange,

I compiled the soundcore module in the kernel compilation and emreged emu10k1.

I haven't had any problems what so ever!

Are you sure that you did the procedure correctly (it worked for my the first time I tried it - I was struggling with ALSA for ages)

The README from the emu10k1 package says:
Quote:
Requirements
------------
- The kernel must be compiled:
- With loadable modules support (CONFIG_MODULES = y)
- With soundcard support (CONFIG_SOUND = y/m)
- Without any integrated emu10k1 soundcard drivers (CONFIG_SOUND_EMU10K1 = m/n)
- "PnP-compatible OS installed" option in BIOS must be disabled
- Recommended system configuration: Min. 100 MHz Pentium-class w/ 32 MB RAM
- Kernel headers matching the kernel for which you are compiling the
driver.

- For sequencer support, sound.o is required (CONFIG_SOUND_OSS= y/m)

Make sure you meet all of the requirements.
The german README is a little bit more complex. I followed the german instructions to get this beast working. As the ebuild takes most of the work, all I had to do was unloading ALL sound-modules, including soundcore, sound, etc, after emerging emu10k1 and before loading the emu10k1 module.
