Hello. I have several soundcards in my machine, including a Soundblaster Live! Platinum (model: CT4760). The other cards work well, but this one has trouble, either alone in the system or with the other cards. The problem is: as soon I want to use it, I get a message that the card waq removed: ALSA /ext/test/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.13/pci/emu10k1/../../alsa-kernel/pci/emu10k1/irq.c:44: snd-emu10k1: Suspected sound card removal ALSA /ext/test/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.13/pci/emu10k1/../../alsa-kernel/pci/emu10k1/irq.c:48: interrupt: PCI error Furthermore, it makes my eth0 adapter crash too: Oct 30 16:29:21 sleuth kernel: eth0: Adapter failed. I get this in /var/log/syslog: eth0: -- ERROR -- Class: Hardware failure Nr: 0x264 Msg: unexpected IRQ Status error eth0: Adapter failed. ALSA and I can't access the network anymore. I asked for help on comp.os.linux.hardware, and somebody told me it could be an IRQ conflict; fiddling with the BIOS helped temporarily, but the problem reappeared. Anyway, eth0 and EMU10K1 don't share the same IRQ (eth0 is the sk98lin on IRQ 16). $ cat /proc/interrupts CPU0 0: 29746 IO-APIC-edge timer 1: 1235 IO-APIC-edge i8042 4: 4144 IO-APIC-edge serial 6: 3 IO-APIC-edge floppy 8: 1 IO-APIC-edge rtc 9: 0 IO-APIC-level acpi 12: 130 IO-APIC-edge i8042 14: 217 IO-APIC-edge ide0 15: 27 IO-APIC-edge ide1 16: 991 IO-APIC-level sk98lin, Ensoniq AudioPCI 17: 26597 IO-APIC-level ohci_hcd:usb2, eth1 18: 0 IO-APIC-level libata, NVidia CK804 19: 6313 IO-APIC-level libata 20: 0 IO-APIC-level ehci_hcd:usb1 21: 15779 IO-APIC-level EMU10K1, nvidia 22: 183 IO-APIC-level snd_ca0106 NMI: 0 LOC: 29713 ERR: 0 MIS: 0 Here are the outputs of lspci -vv for both devices: 05:08.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Live!
