According to the documentation, it has a "ES1888" soundcard. I have tried the VOXWARE driver, Luigi's pcm driver, and the ESS-specific pcm driver[0]. None of them have worked. Does anyone have this card working (c'mon, there's gotta be more than one of these notebooks out there)? I am running a straight (non-PAO) 3.4-STABLE on the notebook. I can get each of the driver sets to find the card (the only modification is that it is at 0x230 rather than 0x220[1]), but none can work it. Here is the dmesg and an attempt at use for each, VOXWARE: sb0 at 0x230 irq 5 drq 1 on isa Hmm... Could this be an ESS688 based card (rev 11) snd0: sbxvi0 not found sbmidi0 not found at 0x330 opl0 at 0x388 on isa snd0: % cat sound.au > /dev/audio SoundBlaster: DSP Command(0xd3) timeout. IRQ conflict ? Luigi's: pcm0 at 0x230 irq 5 drq 1 on isa ESS1868 (rev 11) % cat sound.au > /dev/audio timeout flushing dbuf_out, chan 1 cnt 0x7414 flags 0x00000441 ESS-specific: pcm0 at 0x230 irq 5 drq 1 on isa ESS Chip (rev 11, 5959, native mode) % cat sound.au > /dev/audio timeout flushing dbuf_out, chan 1 cnt 0x7414 flags 0x00000441 Hmmm... Last two look similar, no? Anyway, the card did work on the Win98 that came on the HDD before I nuked it, and the card was at IRQ 5 in Windows. Any advice? Thanks. [0] Apparently these are some PAO mods to the sys/isa/snd for ESS that can stand alone. http://home.jp.freebsd.org/~sanpei/ [1] I found this trick in the mail archives. Some fella was trying to get one of these cards working almost exactly a year ago. http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=1518810+1521246+/usr/local/www/db/text/1999/freebsd-questions/19990321.freebsd-questions -- Crist J.

If anyone has any ideas I am game to try. Try adding "device joy" to your configuration file. The ESS0001 looks like a game/joystick port. Someone might need to add device ID to the driver though.

And if I remember correctly that one is different from the AK4531 on the original Audio PCI card (they used a cheaper one for the PCI64). Creative probably bought Ensoniq because of the Audio PCI card which seems to be mostly identical to the PCI128. I would suggest changing the PCI64 into a PCI128 if possible. If not you must first identify what codec is used on the board - maybe we find specs or an existing Linux driver..

The version check in the port is just a precaution - the port is very likely to work with 3.3.6 once you change the number in the makefile. > I was playing with Will Andrew's update to the Mesa3 port, which > compiles, and means that you can use later utah-glx code out the box. The development effort went into a couple of directions, with code incarnations showing up on a couple of sites which makes tracking a bit more complicated than usual: - Mesa is gone through a few bumps (could be around 3.2 now) - openprojects.net glx project renamed itself into Utah glx to distinguish itself from the SGI implementation of the glx protocol (which is the glx from XFree86 version 4 and the reason why you can`t use a Utah glx module with XF4) - XFree86 changed from 3.3.x to 4.x branch - Next to indirect rendering via glx (where every command goes through the X protocol) there is work on the direct rendering (DRI) going on - it takes place first on the DRI project at SourceForge and then gets patched into the XFree86 main branch. So far only the Voodoo driver is in, the Matrox one is expected soon. Nothing definitive about nvidia yet, although the are believed to do some binary only release using that new XF4 loader.. It is clear that the XFree86 4.x version and the Direct Rendering Infrastructure will be the stuff that has the largest potential. While 4.0 is labeled as a release, my experiences from Monday and Tuesday (less stable - got a couple of Linux Netscape 4.72 crashes and a brand new Mozilla died too on similiar pages, plus the lack of certain features like the Shape extension used by Windowmaker) let XF 4 feel more like a development version than a stable release. Except maybe for Voodoo people (this stuff has been ported by Doug Rabson to FreeBSD), it makes not much sense using now for the other cards. Thus it worth the effort to polish the existing stuff for the XFree86 3.3.6 line - which I continue tomorrow. > managed to update the glx port to a later snapshot, but haven't been > able to get around to 1.

You are right. The speed increase has been reported for Matrox users primarily, the nvidia source did see only some bug fixes - the reason is that Matrox released real specs and nvidia not.

I notice that the binary that was downloadable from the realplayer site was a big binary, which I'm not willing to just blindly allow itself to manage install for me. Does anyone know how it unpacks, or maybe would anyone be willing to let me have the unpacked binaries (and maybe config files? too) involved?

FreeBSD doesn't "support" 3DNow either, but that doesn't prevent anyone from writing programs that run under FreeBSD and use 3DNow instructions. In fact, I already did that. If you mean that FreeBSD's compiler (gcc) should automatically create SSE (or MMX, or 3DNow) instructions from standard code, well, that's a different issue. And it's very non-trivial to _automatically_ identify code sections that could be improved using SSE (or ...) instructions. In particular, you cannot use FPU instructions at the same time, and switching between those instruction sets involves a certain delay penalty. Therefore I think it is _much_ more useful to improve critical code sections _manually_ by replacing them with SSE (...) code if appropriate. This can result in _dramatic_ performance improvements (+100% and more). This is not just theory -- I experimented a lot with 3DNow in the past months. BTW: I also have some patches to nasm to support the new instructions (enhanced K7 3DNow / SSE) and submitted them to the nasm author in Autumn last year. He replied that he already had patches himself and would release them along with a new version. I haven't heard anything since then, but I haven't actively looked for it.

Try going into your BIOS setup and changing it to start PCI VGA adapter first rather than AGP adapter. Of course, this will put your console on the ATI card rather than the matrox card, but then it may work. I think all of the matrox cards since the Millenium I have been able to memory map everything. Basically, your matrox card is using the hardware ports like 0x3Cx, 0x3Dx, and 0x3Bx and the ATI card may need these for itself to do initial startup.

Well, my backgound while saying what I said was no more than the README file which come with gogo some time ago. The port PLIST is broken, it refers nonexistent documents for now but that was it. The README said that Linux has SSE support but FreeBSD don't so the compressor can't use SSE under FreeBSD. It said nothing about in what form Linux has support for SSE and I wasn't interested enough to find out myself. So in what form Linux has support for SSE? If it means unofficial patches for nasm then please forget my question, I thought we missed something bigger :-) Anyway, thanks for your thorough answer. -- Vallo Kallaste vallo@matti.ee To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Tue Mar 14 7:28:32 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from melete.ch.intel.com (melete.ch.intel.com [143.182.246.25]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C482737C0DE for ; Tue, 14 Mar 2000 07:28:30 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jreynold@sedona.ch.intel.com) Received: from sedona.intel.com (sedona.ch.intel.com [143.182.218.21]) by melete.ch.intel.com (8.9.1a+p1/8.9.1/d: relay.m4,v 1.19 2000/01/29 00:15:43 dmccart Exp $) with ESMTP id PAA09464; Tue, 14 Mar 2000 15:29:31 GMT Received: from hip186.ch.intel.com (hip186.ch.intel.com [143.182.225.68]) by sedona.intel.com (8.9.1a/8.9.1/d: sendmail.cf,v 1.10 2000/02/10 21:38:16 steved Exp $) with ESMTP id IAA07621; Tue, 14 Mar 2000 08:27:02 -0700 (MST) X-Envelope-From: jreynold@sedona.ch.intel.com Received: (from jreynold@localhost) by hip186.ch.intel.com (8.9.1a/8.9.1/d: client.m4,v 1.3 1998/09/29 16:36:11 sedayao Exp sedayao $) id KAA23494; Tue, 14 Mar 2000 10:28:04 -0500 (EST) X-Authentication-Warning: hip186.ch.intel.com: jreynold set sender to jreynold@sedona.ch.intel.com using -f From: John Reynolds~ MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <14542.23171.814192.21581@hip186.ch.intel.com> Date: Tue, 14 Mar 2000 08:28:03 -0700 (MST) To: Chuck Robey Cc: Denis DeLaRoca , Jason Garman , Randall Hopper , Michael Hohmuth , multimedia@freebsd.org Subject: Re: raplayer- realaudio In-Reply-To: References: <14541.1880.935259.539987@hip186.ch.intel.com> X-Mailer: VM 6.75 under Emacs 20.3.11 Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org [ On Monday, March 13, Chuck Robey wrote: ] > > I notice that the binary that was downloadable from the realplayer site > was a big binary, which I'm not willing to just blindly allow itself to > manage install for me.

With Real's history on these kinds of things, I'd be much more worried about what the player is telling various servers when you're using it than anything it does during the install. ;-) Daniel ~~~~~~ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Tue Mar 14 13:48:53 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from sasami.jurai.net (sasami.jurai.net [63.67.141.99]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9EDCF37B7D7 for ; Tue, 14 Mar 2000 13:48:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from winter@jurai.net) Received: from localhost (winter@localhost) by sasami.jurai.net (8.9.3/8.8.7) with ESMTP id QAA37128 for ; Tue, 14 Mar 2000 16:48:41 -0500 (EST) Date: Tue, 14 Mar 2000 16:48:41 -0500 (EST) From: "Matthew N.

Sometime in January they switched to a unified model where support for all chipsets is compiled into glx.so and dlopen() is used to select the right driver once the chipset is determined. Allegedly there is a bug in FreeBSD's dlclose() (in 3.2 at least). This caused the X server to sig11 when it loaded the glx.so module at startup. The current version skips the dlclose() #ifdef __FreeBSD__ which is a kludge but at least allows GLX to work here. Unfortunately I haven't been able to get direct rendering to work with Linux Q3A using recent Linux-compiled libGL.so/glx.so from matroxusers.com (Linux binaries requires Linux libs). Q3 reports an undefined symbol error and reverts to indirect rendering (which works but takes a large FPS hit). So IMHO the best version is from late December / early January. The date flag to CVS can get the right version. BTW, I'm using a Matrox G200. Other chipsets may have different results. Currently I'm using FreeBSD-compiled GLX cvs'ed December 23rd and to play Quake 3 with direct rendering I've extracted libGL.so/glx.so from glxMesa-19991222-1.i586.rpm and placed them in my /compat/linux. The .rpm file I got from matroxusers.com; it's no longer there but I still have a copy if anyone needs it. For direct rendering with Linux binaries the Linux libGL.so needs to be slightly hacked to load the Linux glx.so instead of the FreeBSD glx.so. I get around 21 FPS on demo001 using default settings, which is about the same as Win9x users are reporting. > > This is just more a pointer, that later (and faster) GLX code can work > > with XFree86 3.3.6 and Mesa 3.1.

Support for a few other chipsets has been added.

Not wanting to read into the source tonight, and being one of |particularly novice c skills, I decided to email you about it.. I hope |its just a quick fix, 4.0 looks really good. I hit this a while back and haven't had a chance to update fxtv for the general fix. Attached is a description of the issue and a work-around until I get time to update fxtv. Different from prior XFree86 versions, XFree86 4.0 and beta versions now support multiple simultaneous X visuals like most commercial X servers (see 'xdpyinfo' output and note how many more visuals you see now). This means some apps can run in depth 8, some can run in depth 24, etc. simultaneously and the conversion to native formats is all managed transparently by the X server. For historical reasons, on these X servers the default visual is commonly defaulted to depth 8 pseudocolor, and XFree86 has followed this convention. Xt apps (such as Fxtv) wishing to run in a non-default visual (e.g. depth 15, 16, or 24) have to jump through some hoops to do so. Fxtv is not jumping through these hoops yet. WORKAROUND: The workaround is to run your X server such that the default depth is the one fxtv wants to run in, namely the one with the highest depth (depth 15, 16, or 24). You've been doing this up til now, and it's not going to break anything to keep doing it. Unless you run xdm, you can tell X to do this like so: startx -- -cc 4 If you use XDM, you're going to need to find the right XDM config file to set the arguments to the X server. Also, I believe that: Visual "TrueColor" in the new XF86Config is also supposed to work, but at least in 3.9.16 it didn't. YMMV. Also IIRC, you'll need to make sure you're not running 32bpp (or 24bpp with overlays enabled) because with these modes XFree86 requires that the default visual be 8bpp! Don't know how this actually shook out with XFree86 4.0, but that was the case with 3.9.16. Sorry this is a bit incomplete. I haven't had a chance to install XFree86 4.0 yet.

Yup, I think so. That's what my AWE32 daughterboard used to probe as before I put memory in it... Insert 30-pin SIMM(s) in the provided slots.

From the AWEDRV FAQ (http://members.tripod.de/iwai/awedrv-faq.html#Q3.2): Q3.2: I have no DRAM in my card - can I still play midi files with it? Chris Wedgwood answers: Yes. You can use the default ROM fonts that are built into the card. However, it won't necessarily sound very good. I think that the ROM fonts are pretty small, I seem to remember 512K, but I wouldn't swear to it. That'd account for them sounding the same, I think :-) You are using an AWE-aware MIDI player, right? FWIW, at least for the commercial GM MIDI patches, there's a noticeable difference between the 2, 4 and 8Mb sets (i.e. not just file size in factors of 1024^2 bytes! ;-) Cheers, Andy.

It sounds to me like > some sort of standardization for soundcard innards Yes that is it. It works like this (Cameron, Luigi, please corrrect me if I'm wrong) Several companies make AC97 chips which have the same feature set. These AC97 chips then have to be interfaced to the ISA bus or the PCI bus, which is performed by each of the more well known sound card chipsets. Eg on SB PCI 16/64/128 there is an es1370/1371/1373 PCI chip and a seperate AC97 audio codec. I think the AC97 handles the play/record/sample rate issues. The es1370/1371/1373 handles mixing audio sources, the PCI bus, registers IRQs and DMAs. > Particularly, my K7M motherboard has a VIA 82C686 > AC97 codec on it.

While AC97 is a standard, you still need to know how to setup the chip which interfaces AC97 to your ISA or PCI bus.

I've also noticed that unless I specify -geometry +0+0 (or put the window there manually) going full-screen the X viewport is sometimes not properly aligned with the TV window. That is, a few lines of pixels from my desktop are visible on the left side of the TV screen. Part of the fxtv controls (to the top of the volume bar) are also visible at the top, sometimes. When I press the full-screen button once the controls are partly visible. When I press it the third time and subsequently the controls are no longer visible (only the desktop pixels on the left are). However, if the TV window is on the bottom half of the screen, the partialy-visible controls don't go away no matter how many times I press the full-screen button. It seems odd that the top or bottom half of the screen would matter, but this (mis)behaviour is very consistant. The window also appears to get moved down some number of pixels. None of these things happen (except the blank screen on the 2nd/6th/10th etc. press of the full-screen button) when I specify -geometry +0+0, so that's what I'm doing unless/until a proper fix is found. My X server is 3.3.5 with Utah-GLX module (Matrox G200) and WindowMaker 0.61.1. My X header files are only 3.3.3.1 though... Might that make a difference?

There's the "xset s off" command, so there must be some API call which xset is using. But I don't think that affects xscreensaver. This looks like a limitation of the xscreensaver package- I can't even see a way to change the timeout without restarting the xscreensaver server.

Not sure if the configuration will be like that in the future, but we now drive AC97 in a unified way implemented in sys/dev/sound/pcm/ac97.c. It would be interesting to work out a method to determine if a chip actually accompanies with an AC97 codec or some other one. Certain onboard sound systems have a PCI sound chip and an ISA codec (eg CS461x(PCI)-CS423x(ISA) and NeoMagic 256AV(PCI)-MSS(ISA)) to provide a legacy interface as well. In most cases these ISA codecs are not compatible with AC97, so the drivers need to handle them in a different way. -- Seigo Tanimura To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Wed Mar 15 5:22:35 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from picnic.mat.net (picnic.mat.net [206.246.122.133]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 82C8337B9F2 for ; Wed, 15 Mar 2000 05:22:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from chuckr@picnic.mat.net) Received: from localhost (chuckr@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by picnic.mat.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id IAA12813; Wed, 15 Mar 2000 08:20:01 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from chuckr@picnic.mat.net) Date: Wed, 15 Mar 2000 08:20:00 -0500 (EST) From: Chuck Robey To: Seigo Tanimura Cc: doconnor@gsoft.com.au, roger@cs.strath.ac.uk, freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG, nsayer@quack.kfu.com Subject: Re: Understanding AC97 In-Reply-To: <14543.26674.980546.81928B@rina> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org On Wed, 15 Mar 2000, Seigo Tanimura wrote: > On Wed, 15 Mar 2000 19:32:31 +1030 (CST), > "Daniel O'Connor" said: > > Daniel> On 15-Mar-00 Roger Hardiman wrote: > >> While AC97 is a standard, you still need > >> to know how to setup the chip which interfaces AC97 to your > >> ISA or PCI bus. > > Daniel> So conceviably you could have acbus0: a la miibus0: ? > > Not sure if the configuration will be like that in the future, but we > now drive AC97 in a unified way implemented in sys/dev/sound/pcm/ac97.c. > > It would be interesting to work out a method to determine if a chip > actually accompanies with an AC97 codec or some other one.

The only specs I was able to find sugested that AC97 was a feature set only, and had nothing whatsoever to do with how a chip interfaced, or handled delivery of the features. If this is right (I wouldn't mind being corrected here) then the idea of a acbus0 seems a little strange, with no definition of what an acbus is. A "feature" being something like, delivery of stereo audio derived from an N bit codec, not how to get that data, or what binary format it takes. > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include C & Java programming, FreeBSD, chuckr@picnic.mat.net | electronics, communications, and signal processing.

Alternatively : move back to XFree86 3.x versions, I've been using 4.0 at work and it *seems to me* to be aimed somewhat more at the Linux users. What's worrying me now, is whether the DRI stuff will work out to be portable or if XF86 is going to be moving more and more towards Linux first, others later, and only if we're lucky. Maybe I'm worrying myself stupid, but if I want to continue with OpenGL, GLUT etc, it's beginning to look like it would be far easier with Linux, SGI or a different X Server altogether.

I normally run at 32bits, just because I can and Netscape has problems maping colors on its buttons at 24bits. At 32bits FXTV draws the picture frame and then puts the video almost a full frame off to the left of this frame. At 24bits it does the right thing. Is there a solution to this? Thanks...

And a similar situation, w/o drivers, exists for the Yamaha DS-XG series of sound cards. Awesome sound, but no joy under any Unix.

Just curious (as I haven't upgraded yet). Well, during the internal development of XFree86 4.0 lots of things were made to work on Linux first. However this is only natural. There are far more Linux hackers on the XFree86 developers list than BSD hackers. However, when it comes to actual public releases, OS differences are generally very small. DRI is the only thing I can think of which does not work on FreeBSD 'out of the box'. (or 'off the FTP site') DRI support is neeted to get hardware accleration for OpenGL. Utah-GLX 3d accleration does not work in XFree86 4.0 due to a different internal structure of XFree86. There is DRI code for the Voodoo3 and preliminary code for Matrox cards, but all for Linux Only. Fortunatly Doug Rabson is working on that and has submitted FreeBSD patches for inclusion. So, if you follow the internal development, then yes, Linux has a head start. However 99% of us use the proper released versions, and there is no problem here, except for DRI.

Here are some timings I made for a 46 second show trailer captured from TV. Unaccelerated gogo cuts the audio encoding time down to about 10% of what it was with the current MPEG audio encoding software, and 3DNow- acceleration pulls that down to about 5%. Nice! Encoding time (minutes) mpegaudio-dist10 3:00 gogo 0:23 gogo (w/ 3DNow! & MMX) 0:10 Randall --/04w6evG8XlLl3ft Content-Type: application/x-sh Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="gogo-tst.sh" # GOGO MP3 Encoder - http://homepage1.nifty.com/herumi/gogo_e.html # [ 3DNowV2, 3DNow, MMX, SSE ] = OFF, OFF, OFF, OFF gogo -test -nopsy -off 3dn -off e3dn -off mmx # AMD K6-III 400: 90.438sec ( 6.63x) # AMD Athelon 500: ( 16.61x) # [ 3DNowV2, 3DNow, MMX, SSE ] = OFF, OFF, ON , OFF gogo -test -nopsy -off 3dn -off e3dn # AMD K6-III 400: 85.914sec ( 6.98x) # AMD Athelon 500: ( 17.74x) # [ 3DNowV2, 3DNow, MMX, SSE ] = ON , OFF, ON , OFF gogo -test -nopsy -off 3dn # AMD K6-III 400: 85.641sec ( 7.01x) # AMD Athelon 500: ( 17.58x) # [ 3DNowV2, 3DNow, MMX, SSE ] = OFF, ON , OFF, OFF gogo -test -nopsy -off e3dn # AMD K6-III 400: 25.094sec ( 23.91x) # AMD Athelon 500: ( 28.81x) # [ 3DNowV2, 3DNow, MMX, SSE ] = ON , ON , ON , OFF gogo -test -nopsy : 30.52 # AMD K6-III 400: 25.117sec ( 23.89x) # AMD Athelon 500: ( 30.52x) --/04w6evG8XlLl3ft-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
