In addition to what I have done before (see below), I
have now created a
/etc/pcmcia/vxpocket.conf according to the description at the bottom of
the alsa-project page for the vxpocket card. And I have added the
necessary lines to /etc/modutils/alsa-base, and run update-modules.
IIRC these require firmware, is alsa-firmware installed?
Any chance you can try a recent distro? Kernel 2.6.12 is a year old...
... and there were some bugs in vx driver, too.
I recommend to update ALSA driver, at least. Though, I cannot
guarantee that it works with that kernel :)
OK, I will try to lay may hands on a newer kernel and a newer ALSA.
But could you please explain, or point me to documentation on, how
hotplug and pcmcia-cs works together?
As far as I know, 2.6 kernels use the hotplug system. Does this
hotplug system work together with with pcmcia-cs and the cardmgr
program? Or do they conflict? Or are they alternative solutions to
each other?
And especially, how does the hotplug system identify the vxpocket card?
And, is the /etc/pcmcia/vxpocket.conf still needed/used?
With kind regards
