ALSA 1.0.16 (release) and snd-pcsp

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi, I finally installed a Debian snapshot kernel that uses ALSA 1.0.16 
rather than a 1.0.16 release candidate version, and had the pcsp (PC 
speaker) driver block the loading of an nForce2 sound card driver until 
I blacklisted pcsp.

There has been some discussion on this before in this list but I'd like 
to know if there is any consensus amongst ALSA developers on handling 
snd-pcsp intelligently.

In an even bigger wishlist department, how one can easily make a 
selection between several sound cards in a machine as to which one is 
default and which other ones still have drivers loaded?

The machine in question has:

/etc/modprobe.d$/sound:

alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
options snd-intel8x0 index=0
alias snd-card-1 snd-mpu-401
options snd-mpu-401 index=1
alias snd-card-2 snd-usb-audio
options snd-usb-audio index=2
alias snd-card-3 snd-fm801
options snd-fm801 index=3

and now has:

cat /proc/asound/cards
  0 [nForce2        ]: NFORCE - NVidia nForce2
                       NVidia nForce2 with ALC650F at irq 21
  1 [UART           ]: MPU-401 UART - MPU-401 UART
                       MPU-401 UART at 0x330, irq 10
  2 [U0x46d0x8d9    ]: USB-Audio - USB Device 0x46d:0x8d9
                       USB Device 0x46d:0x8d9 at usb-0000:00:02.0-1, 
full speed
  3 [FM801AU        ]: FM801 - ForteMedia FM801-AU
                       ForteMedia FM801-AU at 0x9400, irq 16

Note that there is *not* a clear mapping between names in 
/proc/asound/cards and snd-* modules used.

Has anyone come up with a solution to help with the selection of default 
cards and appropriate black-listing if needed?

Arthur.
