Hi,
I dloaded alsa 0.9.0rc3
I have a custom built 2.4.7-10 kernel
My kernel sources reside at /usr/src/linux-2.4.7-10
and my kernel modules at /lib/modules/2.4.7-10custom
I have a CMI8738
I used the following set of commands:
./configure --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-2.4.7-10/
--with-moddir=/lib/modules/2.4.7-10custom/ --with-cards=cmipci
--with-sequencer=yes
and the regular make and make install.
during make install a lot on unresolved dependancies show up.
I am unable to insert the snd-cmipci module due to these unresolved
dependancies.
any clues to what could be the problem?
One more question... will i be able to play sound from multiple sources
(without using arts/esd) with the alsa drivers.
Thanx,
Nanda
On the Lesstif/Motif business, you can find out which library is loaded
with ldd snd. There's a --with-motif-prefix configure switch if
configure
is finding Lesstif instead of Motif.
I've also noticed the empty-box-where-glyph-should-be-bug even
when all the correct fonts are loaded, but I was putting off looking
into it --
there's always the hope that no-one else would notice...
I'm told that someone is making a real effort to fix Lesstif, so maybe
it will
be usable someday soon.
We are pleased to announce Quicktoot release number 8

If you don't know how to do this you don't know JACK!
Essential reading for anyone who wants to get multiple audio apps
working in realtime with low latency in the Linux environment. JACK is
the Jack Audio Connection Kit - the Linux answer to Core Audio. Ardour
is a professional Digital Audio Workstation. MusE is a professional MIDI
editor. You want to have these working together like Tux needs water.
-----------------------------------
The purpose of the Quicktoots are to provide a community resource of
informative guides for using Linux audio applications.
The Quicktoots are the brainchild of Dave Phillips the man responsible
for the most comprehensive webpage devoted to Linux audio applications.
The Linux Sound and Midi page. Your one stop resource for Linux sound
software.

If you are in the position to link to any of the quicktoots please link
to the main page. That way we can keep more accurate statistics on the
amount of people viewing the pages.
If you are interested in contributing to the Quicktoots please let us
know. All work must be submitted to either Dave or myself and we will
give advice or make changes to ensure our publishing standard is met. If
you are not able to send html don't worry because I am willing to format
any braindumps.
Enjoy.

Mark,
> I also use an Audiophile 2496. That's 4 in - 4 out for about
$150-$175. Two analog and two s/pdif.
I could live with that. I do want S/PDIF for interfacing with my
external decoder, the SB on my Windows machine, and my MiniDisc
machine. Old-fashioned analog would be nice because I could connect
directly to my old-fashioned analog mixer.
But I don't see any Linux drivers for the 2496.
If I could get away with AMD, I probably would. Otherwise, I'd
consider plunking for a 1.8 GHz Celeron. Since my two main Windows
computers are running ASUS boards, I certainly have nothing against
ASUS. I just want to head off as many incompatibilities as I can up
front.
Thanks!

Hi all,
Well, my old soyo mobo seems to have fried.
I see tons of possibilities on the market, but hey,
this is audio... we have weird needs and sometimes it's
hard to tell from a spec sheet..
Can anybody recommend motherboards and/or chipsets
that meet these criteria?
- good for low-latency audio work, e.g. don't
have nasty southbridge bugs (or at least have good
kernel workarounds)
- ATX form factor
- will take a PIII 866 (coppermine, socket 370)
- Dual CPU capability would be nice, that'll probably
be my next upgrade
- will take PC-133 memory, at least 512 MB
- onboard IDE must work with CDDA (ripping)
- no built-in video
- no built-in audio, or at least it can be disabled or safely ignored
- won't fry after a year and a half of routine use :(

Hello my fellow linux users,
I have just released v0.3.0 of my midi sequencer. Several people have
been waiting
for its ability to record midi, well, now you have it.

New screen shots are up too..
cheers,

Hi
Has anyone had any experience trying to get this card to work?
http://www.midiman.com/products/m-audio/delta410.php
In theory it should since its the same chipset, but it would be good to
hear first hand..
thanks
-Nick

AMD would be fine with me. But I read somewhere that some folks seemed
to be having audio problems on Linux systems that were running AMD.
Some of the ASUS motherboards had problems, perhaps? I don't remember.
I just want to make sure that the motherboard works with the soundcard
and the networking card and the video card and all the other little
cards we crave.
> The hammerfall dsp retails for around 6-800 us$
I don't need every single bell and whistle. It looks like the
Hammerfall DIGI9636 would work for me. Since it retails for $565, it
must be available elsewhere at a lower price. Right? Or maybe the
M-Audio route is the most cost effective?

I don't necessarily mind debugging, but I don't want that to be a huge
timesink. It doesn't sound like Linux is quite ready for USB audio.
Since USB is not a deal breaker for me, I can live with non-USB
options.
> How many channels do you need?
Four would be nice. I'm easy!
Thanks!

Thanks for all your replies! The list of ALSA-supported devices is
very handy. I had figured that since M-Audio didn't have much
Linux-oriented info on their site, their Linux support was sketchy. I
was wrong. And now that I know the M-Audio stuff all works, the Delta
66 is looking pretty good. It will be a toss up between that and the
Audiophile.
I'm doing homework this morning, primarily based on Tom's Hardware
Guide. Although the AMD systems have, not surprisingly, a
price/performance edge, it's not as great an edge as I had suspected
now that Intel's 845G chipset is out. Given Mark's intriguing comment
about making various devices work together as one, the fact that the
Gigabyte GA-8IGXP has built-in S/PDIF out is interesting. Here's my
very brief take on the core components:
* P4 2 GHz--$160
* Gigabyte GA-8IGXP (Built-in graphics, S/PDIF out, FireWire)--$100
vs.
* Athlon XP 2000--$90
* Gigabyte GA-7VRXP--$100
Steve's comment prompted me to look up the state of the Celeron. I
hadn't really paid too much attention to the P4-derived Celeron until
now, but Steve is right: If you're going to go Intel, it looks like
you might as well go the full P4 route.
Oh well. Budgets were made to be broken, I guess.
Thanks!
Scott
