From: Rask Ingemann Lambertsen <rask@xxxxxxxxxx> The ad1816a driver fails if the mpu401 driver has been loaded first. This patch against linux 2.6.20 fixes it by just ignoring the MPU-401 device in that case, so that the rest of the sound card can be used. The ad1816a driver already handles the MPU-401 device being unavailable due to lack of resources in the same way. Signed-off-by: Rask Ingemann Lambertsen <rask@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Another way of fixing the failure would be to remove the MPU-401 related code from the ad1816a driver, so the MPU-401 device is always handled by the mpu401 driver. I'll write such a patch if you think that's better. --- linux-2.6.20/sound/isa/ad1816a/ad1816a.c-orig 2007-02-04 19:44:54.000000000 +0100 +++ linux-2.6.20/sound/isa/ad1816a/ad1816a.c 2007-03-18 18:28:20.000000000 +0100 @@ -129,8 +129,8 @@ static int __devinit snd_card_ad1816a_pn } acard->devmpu = pnp_request_card_device(card, id->devs[1].id, NULL); if (acard->devmpu == NULL) { - kfree(cfg); - return -EBUSY; + mpu_port[dev] = -1; + snd_printk(KERN_WARNING PFX "MPU401 device busy, skipping.\n"); } pdev = acard->dev; @@ -162,6 +162,10 @@ static int __devinit snd_card_ad1816a_pn dma2[dev] = pnp_dma(pdev, 1); irq[dev] = pnp_irq(pdev, 0); + if (acard->devmpu == NULL) { + kfree(cfg); + return 0; + } pdev = acard->devmpu; pnp_init_resource_table(cfg); -- Rask Ingemann Lambertsen ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
