I'm trying to get midi working with my ymfpci based card ... I didn't know I had to specify the mpu_port in my module options. Does anyone know what value I need to pass? or how I can find out? I guess I need to add something like: options snd-ymfpci mpu_port=0x??? currently I just have this: #sound specific modules alias char-major-116 snd alias snd-card-0 snd-ice1712 alias snd-card-1 snd-ymfpci tim hall wrote: > > Last thing, I can hear sound without difficulty : when X runs afeter > > boot, I hear the little jingle witch comes with > > Basically you must instruct modprobe to connect up the MIDI port (usually > 0x330) when it inserts the soundcard driver. > I assume you have checked here for details, no? > http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/index.php3 > > My /etc/alsa/modutils/0.9 file looks like this > (It probably will work for you, but I'm guessing) > > --------------------------------------------------------------- > alias char-major-116 snd > alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0 > options snd-intel8x0 mpu_port=0x330 index=0 > options snd major=116 cards_limit=1 device_mode=0660 > alias char-major-14 soundcore > alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 > alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss > alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss > alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss > alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss > alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > If you are using mdk-9.2 then your modules directories may be set up > differently from Debian (which is what I'm using).
