I had same problem with setting up my CSS1869 card in 4.1.1 RELEASE. Then someone on this list posted a link to http://www.opensound.com/ and that got the sound working. The only downside is that they charge $20 US Dollars for their software. I am still using the free trial, and it works great. Hope this helps.

I tried snd0 as well as snd1. It didn't work. According to section 14.4 of the handbook you have to run: cat /dev/sndstat to check if it is snd0 or snd1. This gave me the message: "Device not configured" The boot up messages report two unknown cards: pcio: <unknown card> (vendor = 0xe159, dev = 0x0001) at 14.0 irq 11 pcio: <unknown card> (vendor = 0x12eb, dev = 0x0001) at 16.0 irq 5. The latter is the sound card I suppose. I repeat my orignal message in plain text: I don't succeed in building a kernel which detects my TRUST Sound Expert 128 PCI properly. It detects an unknown PCI card. I added the following sentence to the kernel configuration file: device pcm (as it is a PCI/PnP card) Checking things in W'2000, I found the following drivers: Aureal Vortex-gameport Areal Vorex 8820 Audio (WDM) Vortex multifunction PCI parent Audiocodecs Legacy audiostuurprogramma's So it seems to have something to do with Aureal Vortex, which is supported according to the handbook. So why doesn't it work. I hope someone can help me. The specifications of the sound card are are: Synthesizer: 64 Voices General MIDE 1.0 SoundBlaster Pro I and Adlib emulation. OPL2 FM software emulation Digital Audio: CD quality stereo sound. Recording quality of up to 48KHz possible. Simultaneous recording and playing. MIDI Roland MPU-401 compatible. BUS: PCI 2.1 Compliant Input ports: Microphone Line CD-Audio AUX Voice modem audio Output ports: Line out Speaker out Support: Direct Sound (Direct X) support Positional 3D sound (DirectSound 3D) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kent Stewart" <kstewart@urx.com> To: "Simon Siemonsma" <simon196405@bigfoot.com> Sent: Friday, May 25, 2001 8:18 PM Subject: Re: sound cart: Trust sound expert 128 PCI > Since you sent email in HTML to a list that hates HTML, I can't quote your > email and add comments. > > What did you do after booting the kernel?
