( vent mode on) Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Ok i been working on this way to long ( Vent mode off )
System setup
Sound Blaster Live
4 channel speakers
-----------------------------------------------
With alsa
Only Front channels work no rear channels I tried this to get rear channels to work.
| Code: |
alias sound-slot-0 emu10k1
alias sound-service-0 emu10k1
post-install soundcore /usr/local/bin/mgr_text -a "Pcm L":"Rear L" && /usr/local/bin/mgr_text -a "Pcm R":"Rear R" && /usr/bin/aumix -c R
post-install ide-cd /usr/bin/aumix -c R
|
Which dose not work... No one @ Alsa or the Alsa FAQ's have the answer.
---------------------------------------------------
Using latest emu10k1 cvs build
everything works. 4 channels and tone control, but no OSS ...Xine and other apps will not work. After I modprobe sound then everything sounds nasty and half the apps will not play sound.
--------------------------------------------------
Using built in kernel emu10k1 and OSS
Everything works but no tone control!!!
---------------------------------------------------
Has anybody got everything to work? I would realy like to use Creatives drivers because they do sound better and I have better contol over the card. Any help or sugestions would be great! |

If you've used Alsa, the big problem is that even when removed, a lot of stuff has been built against it (gnome-libs, kde-libs, esound, etc). I've spent the best part of a day grepping a partition to find out which libraries were linked to libasound.la (alsa) and recompiling after unmerging Alsa. Finally, I was able to use the native kernel modules *successfully* with all my apps.
Btw, if you are using Alsa, merge alsamixer, and use the alsamixer utility from a terminal to get the volume up on the rear speakers.
Also, Xine should work without OSS /or/ Alsa. I believe you need to change a few settings in the options screen. With regards to your aliases file. If you have the alsa drivers installed, you should be aliasing snd-emu10k1 and not emu10k1. Alsa installs alternative SBLive driver modules you see.  |
