I think what folk meant above (I certainly did :-) ) was that if a device is declared such: device pcm0 then it should (?) itself from the PnP settings, not creating a "dead" pcm0, and the "live" one from pnp1.

YUKK! the line "device pcm0 at isa? ..." means that I _might_ have a legacy isa device as pcm0, and since PnP is probed and attached _before_ legacy isa devices, I cannot use the 0 entry for pnp devices. What I could do is to attach the pnp device, number, and when the isa probe fails shift the pnp unit to become unit 0. But this is quite messy, in the boot log you would have something like: pcm1 attached.... pcm0 not found. pcm1 has now become pcm0! if the config line as just "device pcm0" (without "at isa? ...") as you propose, perhaps things could be worked out (but then you could _not_ have legacy ISA device with that kernel). "device de0" is such an example since the de driver does not work with ISA devices, only PCI. So I consider the current setup the lesser of the two evils. if you find a better way please go ahead and send me the patches.

The last try was to use the ports-current vat sources and apply the file in snd/misc/audio-voxware.cc. No sound. The output of lsof tells me that there's no open descriptor to /dev/audio, even when I'm trying to xmit. A cat > /dev/audio works perfectly, and NAS also works well. I also tryied vat-and-half and vat-4.0b2 from rah.star-gate.com, but the results were similar. The only small difference was with vat-4.0b2, which had lots of open descriptors to /dev/mixer.

Provide X server side video extensions I downloaded the old X11R5 video extensions: http://ftp.uci.agh.edu.pl/pub/X11R5/contrib/extensions/mvex http://ftp.uci.agh.edu.pl/pub/X11R5/contrib/extensions/xv Will be evaluating the extensions based on ease of implementation & extensibility. For starters, I would like to provide yuv to rgb color expansion from a video source or from an application side. For the case that an application provides a yuv stream (like vic is capable of ) , the yuv to rgb & scaling hardware support will be best done thru the XIE extensions. The X Video extensions will not be affected since they will have direct access to the hardware. Targetted applications are fxtv and vic. If anyone has any info into an existing xvideo project please let me know. 2. Proceed forward to provide a hardware mpeg decoder/encoder solution Details a bit fuzzy however I am gathering the docs and have an Omnimedia mpeg encoder/decoder board. Should be interesting to serve up mpeg audio and video streams . The mpeg audio component should be very interesting because we will be able to serve quality audio streams at around 80kbs . At any rate, thats my warm fuzzy feeling 8) 3. Provide the functionality of fastvid that is disable caching of the video frame buffer -- experimental tests over here show that at least under dos and with a matrox millenium the data trasfer to the frame buffer can jump from 20MB/s to 80MB/s. A simple hardwire hack over has show positive results for MTV and I will imagine that vic will also benefit a lot. If I managed to provide the above functionality in a reasonable time we will have a decent low level video solution. What is lacking is an application frame work -- that one is a bit tougher to accomplish perhaps we can ride this one with recent advancements in object technlogy in java -- for example java beans.

Luigi will have to answer more of this... ttyl.. The situation with the GUS is the following: the new sound driver never worked with it, it merely has the hooks to recognize the card and call the attach routine. The latter is (presumably) missing many things related to the initialization of the IW chip, so the card does not actually transfer any data. Since I do not own such a card it is pretty much useless that I write code without being able to test it. We are stuck with this situation until either someone with a GUS finds the time to update the driver, or someone sends me a GUS (and does not expect to have it returned) and I find the time to work on it. Incidentally the latter might happen within the next few weeks.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Mon, 22 Sep 1997 19:21:08 -0700 From: Amancio Hasty Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk From: http://threewave.planetquake.com/linux/glquake.html [snip] As many people know, I'm working on the Unix ports for id software. I'm working on GLQuake for Linux, now that Linux GLIDE is available. I have gotten it running using MesaGL on top of Linux GLIDE. There are a number of issues that I need to address and I was looking for some input. - Right now, texture management with MesaGL over GLIDE isn't very nice. In fact, you can't even load a level in GLQuake without cutting the textures down pretty severely with gl_picmip. Also, after two or three levels you still run out of texture memory anyway (since GLQuake never frees textures, it just shares them between levels) and it bombs out. Is there any work to improve texture handling in MesaGL in the near future? Ideally, it should just be like the 3DFX opengl32.dll miniport in that it automatically handles moving textures in and out of the card based on the demands of the current rendering scene. Until this is fixed, GLQuake under Linux really isn't usuable. Quake2 doesn't have this problem, as it frees textures between levels, but the current fxMesa implementation never 'frees' textures out of the card, so you still run out of texture memory. - Keyboard and mouse handling are an issue. After looking at this, looks like the best way is to use X11 for both inputs. Keyboard is pretty standard under X (just create a window and start reading keyboard events), but mouse is rather ugly. Essentially, you keep having to warp the pointer to the middle of the window after reading its position change. I'm wondering if there's a better way. Ideally, I'd want to steal the mouse from X entirely and read it directly to get precise inputs from the mouse itself. I've considering ripping the code out from gpm/svgalib to do this. Any one have thoughts on this? Is there a mode in X11 where I can just grab the pointer and read it's changes directly? This also gets ugly if you have window managers that change focus based on mouse position. If you whip the mouse fast enough before GLQuake has a chance to warp it back to the middle of the window, you can end up changing focus to another application and all hell breaks lose. - Performance under MesaGL over GLIDE is pretty slow. I get around 12fps at 640x480 with a "timedemo demo2", and that's even after mipping down all the textures. This is much less than the Win32 opengl32.dll miniport where I get around 24fps with standard settings (no funky tweaks). I'm not sure where the performance is lost. I'll have to do some more testing and profiling to find out where. Just for your info, I'm using my bottom of the line Pentium 100 for testing which explains the rather low numbers. I'd like input on these issues and hope to provide a working GLQuake for Linux as soon as its feasible. /// Zoid. zoid@idsoftware.com The Glide 2.4 rasterization library for Linux has been released by 3Dfx for users of the Voodoo chipset. The library can be obtained from 3Dfx. Things are really starting to fall into place quite nicely now. I'm not sure what lies in our future... a miniport of GLQuake or a full blown (read slow) port of OpenGL Quake. I'll let ya all know as soon as I hear anything.

If they did not, then you might upgrade if: - you have a non-pnp SB clone which was not recognized; - you have a CS4236 or CS4237, PnP, which was not recognized; - you have a GusPnP _and_ are willing to make changes to the code! For those experiencing 'clicks' in the output with the SB16: I am not sure, but a possible explaination is that, despite the SB16 has a playout FIFO, it only generates an interrupt when the FIFO is empty, thus making it useless... I am saying this because the clicks cannot be heard on the CS423x (except perhaps at the highest speeds). The CS423x has a FIFO, but always tries to keep the playout FIFO full, giving plenty of time to respond to interrupts and making operation in normal DMA mode possible.

I think that you were to liberal in commenting stuff will debug the gus pnp section tomorrow. You have to be careful with cards such as the gus pnp because they may expect a certain internal state for complete initialization.

They have sent me back a zip archive with some documentation, which seems a good starting point. I still don't know if they allow source distribution of a potential FreeBSD driver but probably they will not object. Let me say that the board is an ISA device and an old design, so I would not buy it if _now_ that we have bt848 things (this would have been different a couple of years ago when the only alternative was the Meteor which was way too expensive. However it has some nice features such as integrated compression (or so they claim) and an integrated audio codec. The Videum card appears to be a 'standard' component in some videoconferencing kits on sale around here, so one might end up getting the card anyways together with other things like a cheap camera etc (much like those cheap SCSI controllers which come with scanners). So, does anyone already have this card and is willing to work on the driver ? I am willing to help. It probably uses CS42xx codecs and Philips video devices, so much can be borrowed from ad1848.c and meteor.c Cheers Luigi -----------------------------+-------------------------------------- Luigi Rizzo | Dip. di Ingegneria dell'Informazione email: luigi@iet.unipi.it | Universita' di Pisa tel: +39-50-568533 | via Diotisalvi 2, 56126 PISA (Italy) fax: +39-50-568522 | http://www.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/ _____________________________|______________________________________ From owner-freebsd-multimedia Thu Sep 25 12:13:08 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id MAA06421 for multimedia-outgoing; Thu, 25 Sep 1997 12:13:08 -0700 (PDT) Received: from bmccane.uit.net (bmccane.uit.net [209.83.205.48]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id MAA06409 for ; Thu, 25 Sep 1997 12:12:49 -0700 (PDT) Received: from bmccane.uit.net (localhost.mccane.com [127.0.0.1]) by bmccane.uit.net (8.8.7/8.8.5) with ESMTP id OAA04424; Thu, 25 Sep 1997 14:12:03 -0500 (CDT) Message-Id: <199709251912.OAA04424@bmccane.uit.net> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0gamma 1/27/96 To: Amancio Hasty cc: multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Diamond DTV 1100 In-reply-to: Your message of "Tue, 23 Sep 1997 11:11:58 PDT." <199709231811.LAA05842@rah.star-gate.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Thu, 25 Sep 1997 14:12:02 -0500 From: Wm Brian McCane Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I thought the SAA 7196 was for PCI cards.

The rest of your card is supported through the existing Sound Blaster and Sound Blaster 16 drivers. The SB & SB16 drivers delivered with 2.2.* should work fine for you if you grab the ISA PnP tools to get the card inited (so the driver will find it). The AWEDRV patch at the URL above will apply cleanly on top of this. You'll want a section in your kernel config file something like this: controller snd0 device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 vector sbintr device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 5 device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x330 device opl0 at isa? port 0x388 #device awe0 at isa? port 0x620 Alternatively as suggested, try the drivers Amancio and/or Luigi are working on that have PnP support built-in. These are work-in-progress, but you won't need the PnP tools. I'm not up on the latest status of Luigi's for SB16+ cards, but last I tried Amancio's driver (2wks ago), it works well for play (just some pops on AU files that you don't hear with the 3.0 drivers). 16-bit record isn't quite there yet, and there are some occasional 8-10 sec close hangs. But this driver will get you sound in Quake if that interests you.

Reply-to: brainey@cisco.com Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi, Does anybody have a set of patches for guspnp18 (or a new guspnp) that will compile with the latest 3.0 kernel (3.0-970926-SNAP) ? I'm trying to get my UMAX running and tried using guspnp18 with my 3.0-970522-SNAP system and found that things like isa_dmastatus() weren't there for the gus pnp stuff. So I had the great idea of trying the latest greatest kernel (3.0-970926-SNAP) only to find there that select is being replaced with poll (why ?). At this point I guess my options are to go back to the 3.0-970522-SNAP and add the missing stuff in or try to go forward to the 3.0-970926-SNAP and find patches to the guspnp. I would prefer to go forward but part of that depends on how stable 3.0-970926-SNAP is or if there is an interim SNAP that would be better suited. Any suggestions ?

Maybe one could split the page in a upper half -- general info -- with a high level description and pointers to apps etc., and a second half with the more technical info (refs to the chipsets i2c utility programs etc.).
