hdsploader can't load firmware

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

 



Hi,

 on my new Dell Precision M4400 (64bit dual core) with Ubuntu
intrepid, hdsploader won't download the firmware to the Multiface. The
pcmcia card is recognized on insertion and the snd-hdsp module
loaded. I tried with two different Multifaces and two different PCMCIA
Cards. The firmware loads fine with my other Laptops.  I tried kernels

2.4.27-7-generic
2.4.24-21-rt (ubuntustudio)
2.4.24-19-rt (ubuntustudio)

When issuing hdsploader, I get the infamous:

------------------ orm@varese:~$ hdsploader hdsploader - firmware
loader for RME Hammerfall DSP cards Looking for HDSP + Multiface or
Digiface cards : Card 0 : HDA Intel at 0xf6fdc000 irq 21 Card 1 : RME
Hammerfall DSP at 0x124000000, irq 19 Upload firmware for card hw:1
Hwdep ioctl error on card hw:1 : Input/output error.  orm@varese:~$
-----------------

I also tried to download the frimware to the Multiface and reattach
the cable but the system still believes, the firmware hasn't yet been
downloaded.

Below are the outputs of lspci, my syslog and lsmod output. It seems,
the system doesn't even recognize the Multiface. I doublechecked all
cables and powered the Multifaces with higher voltages just to make
sure that isn't the problem. The firmware sits in

/usr/share/alsa/firmware/hdsploader 

and a copy in

/usr/local/share/alsa/firmware/hdsploader

Since the syslogs don't complain about not finding the firmware the
error seems to be earlier anyway. I also tried with a fresh build of
alsa (1.0.17/18), downloaded today from alsa-project.org but it didn't
change anything.

Are there any options for the modules I could try or is there anything
I could do to nail down the problem? IRQ of the card is 19.

Please help, I really need the laptop for concerts and didn't expect
anything like that as the RMEs have worked reliably in many different
configurations in all kinds of hardware without any problems in the
last years.
