Took a bit of effort to get patch to apply to 1.0.11 here, but eventually suceeded to get it to compile and run, with MPU401_INFO_INTEGRATED in all occurances. Then changed ice1712.c 2nd port to MPU401_INFO_OUTPUT. Loading the driver failled: linux kernel: ALSA ../../alsa-kernel/drivers/mpu401/mpu401_uart.c:548: mpu401_uart: unable to grab port 0xc81c size 2 Perhaps if ! ( _INTEGRATED) at this section should include _OUTPUT and _INPUT flags? Anyway I //out these 8 lines and the driver would load. However, > cat /proc/asound/seq/clients Client info cur clients : 3 peak clients : 4 max clients : 192 Client 0 : "System" [Kernel] Port 0 : "Timer" (Rwe-) Port 1 : "Announce" (R-e-) Client 16 : "TerraTec DMX6Fire" [Kernel] Port 0 : "MIDI-Front DMX6fire 0" (RWeX) Port 32 : "Wavetable DMX6fire 0" (--e-) Client 20 : "Aureal Vortex au8820" [Kernel] Port 0 : "au8820 MIDI 1" (RWeX) shows(?) that the wavetable device is not writable. aplaymidi cannot open the port, and doesn't list it. Suggestions as to what causes this? Have checked out_enable=1, input_enable=0 for the 2nd port. Is this patch going to be appropriate where a duplex port (ie the envy24 chip) is used for output only?
