How to enable CMI 8330 (SOUNDPRO) soundchip on Linux ------------------------------------------ Stefan Laudat <Stefan.Laudat@asit.ro> [Note: The CMI 8338 is unrelated and right now unsupported] In order to use CMI8330 under Linux you just have to use a proper isapnp.conf, a good isapnp and a little bit of patience. I use isapnp 1.17, but you may get a better one I guess at http://www.roestock.demon.co.uk/isapnptools/. Of course you will have to compile kernel sound support as module, as shown below: CONFIG_SOUND=m CONFIG_SOUND_OSS=m CONFIG_SOUND_SB=m CONFIG_SOUND_ADLIB=m CONFIG_SOUND_MPU401=m # Mikro$chaft sound system (kinda useful here ;)) CONFIG_SOUND_MSS=m The /etc/isapnp.conf file will be: <snip below> (READPORT 0x0203) (ISOLATE PRESERVE) (IDENTIFY *) (VERBOSITY 2) (CONFLICT (IO FATAL)(IRQ FATAL)(DMA FATAL)(MEM FATAL)) # or WARNING (VERIFYLD N) # WSS (CONFIGURE CMI0001/16777472 (LD 0 (IO 0 (SIZE 8) (BASE 0x0530)) (IO 1 (SIZE 8) (BASE 0x0388)) (INT 0 (IRQ 7 (MODE +E))) (DMA 0 (CHANNEL 0)) (NAME "CMI0001/16777472[0]{CMI8330/C3D Audio Adapter}") (ACT Y) )) # MPU (CONFIGURE CMI0001/16777472 (LD 1 (IO 0 (SIZE 2) (BASE 0x0330)) (INT 0 (IRQ 11 (MODE +E))) (NAME "CMI0001/16777472[1]{CMI8330/C3D Audio Adapter}") (ACT Y) )) # Joystick (CONFIGURE CMI0001/16777472 (LD 2 (IO 0 (SIZE 8) (BASE 0x0200)) (NAME "CMI0001/16777472[2]{CMI8330/C3D Audio Adapter}") (ACT Y) )) # SoundBlaster (CONFIGURE CMI0001/16777472 (LD 3 (IO 0 (SIZE 16) (BASE 0x0220)) (INT 0 (IRQ 5 (MODE +E))) (DMA 0 (CHANNEL 1)) (DMA 1 (CHANNEL 5)) (NAME "CMI0001/16777472[3]{CMI8330/C3D Audio Adapter}") (ACT Y) )) (WAITFORKEY) <end of snip> The module sequence is trivial: /sbin/insmod soundcore /sbin/insmod sound /sbin/insmod uart401 # insert this first /sbin/insmod ad1848 io=0x530 irq=7 dma=0 soundpro=1 # The sb module is an alternative to the ad1848 (Microsoft Sound System) # Anyhow, this is full duplex and has MIDI /sbin/insmod sb io=0x220 dma=1 dma16=5 irq=5 mpu_io=0x330 Alma Chao <elysian@ethereal.torsion.org> suggests the following /etc/modules.conf: alias sound ad1848 alias synth0 opl3 options ad1848 io=0x530 irq=7 dma=0 soundpro=1 options opl3 io=0x388 |
