Hi, after some communications with Creative, I finally got a mergeable version of their X-Fi driver. It's not my crappy hack but by genuine Creative :) The patch is now merged into sound-unstable GIT tree topic/ctxfi branch: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound-unstable-2.6.git The corresponding alsa-driver snapshot tarball is: ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/snapshot/alsa-driver-unstable-snapshot.tar.gz The driver module is named as snd-ctxfi. I tested only the driver builds with recent kernels, but unfortunately I have no test hardware now, so it'd be helpful if anyone can test it with a real hardware. Note that the ctxfi driver might conflict with the HD-audio driver. So it'd be nice if you save the output of lspci before loading the drivers and let me know if any problem happens. Also, at testing, please check the kernel message. If this conflict really happens, try to build without hd-audio, that is, run configure with --with-cards=ctxfi option in addition to others, and test whether it works with this workaround (better after reboot to reset the board info by BIOS). Once after I get positive feedbacks (or fix after negative ones), I'm going to merge it to the main tree so that it'll be in the next kernel. So, a quick test report would be greatly appreciated. thanks, Takashi _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
