-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
I just got a new sound card. It is supposedly a SoundBlaster
16-compatible 16-bit sound card. It is Plug and Play. (or should I say
"Plug and Pray"? :-( )
It is labeled on the box as a "ASound PLUS" soundcard. It appears to be
based on the Avance Logic chipset (is it is either the ALS0110, the
ALS100+, or ALS120, I can't tell which).
Anyway, after a bit of fiddling around, I managed to get the Luigi's new
PnP and sound drivers hacked into my (2.2.5-R) kernel. (yes, I did
download the latest version of this stuff off of his web site.) The sound
card works -- I can 'cat' an au file to /dev/audio, and it plays.
However, while a sound is playing, I get tons of these messages spit out
to the console: (and if the sound is a particularly long one, it is sounds
very choppy and broken up...)
WARNING: rdintr but read DMA inactive!
I have no clue whatsoever as to what's going on here.
One weird thing about this card is that it supposedly has two DMA channels,
because it (supposedly) is a full-duplex sound card. Does this have
anything to do with it?
Any ideas what's going on? I'd like to get this working. Please respond
by e-mail to <dburr@POBoxes.com>.
Many thanks in advance!
PS: for future information, where are questions of this nature best to be
posted in? -hardware, or -questions? I wasn't sure which, since this is a
_question_, but it has to do with a particular piece of _hardware_, so I
cross-posted. If this has caused any upset, please accept my apologies.
Information on my system:
Pentium 133 (motherboard based on VIA 580VPX chipset)
BIOS is Award v4.51pg, with Plug and Play support
32 MB EDO RAM
Other hardware:
DTC 3130B SCSI controller (uses NCR53c815 chipset)
Creative labs Video Blaster MA202 video card (based on Cirrus CL-GD5446)
US Robotics Sportster 56K internal fax/modem
RealTek 8029 ethernet card (Ne2000 compatible, PCI)
