It seems you have an ESS based card and also an Envy24 chip on the other. Don't know if the Hoontech is capable of having soundfonts loaded directly to it. I now the ESS is not. If you want to use soundfonts u need to run them in a softsynth like FLuidsynth and connect your midi ports via aconnect or Qjackctl midi window. Qsynth is the handiest app I've seen which acts as a GUI for FLuidsynth. > > But there is some synth-related info in /proc/asound/hwdep > > 00-00: OPL3 FM > > And then looking at /proc/asound/oss/sndstat > > Sound Driver:3.8.1a-980706 (ALSA v1.0.5a emulation code) > Kernel: Linux sprite 2.4.25 #12 Thu Jul 8 14:42:08 HST 2004 i686 > Config options: 0 > > Installed drivers: > Type 10: ALSA emulation > > Card config: > ESS AudioDrive ES1869 at 0x220, irq 5, dma1 0, dma2 3 > Hoontech SoundTrack Audio DSP24 at 0x2440, irq 11 > Virtual MIDI Card 1 > > Audio devices: > 0: ESS AudioDrive ES1869 (DUPLEX) > 1: ICE1712 multi (DUPLEX) > > Synth devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG > ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ > Would this be in my kernel configuration?? > Or perhaps /etc/modules.conf? > > Could someone suggest relevant options? > > Midi devices: > 0: ESS AudioDrive ES1869 MIDI > 1: Hoontech SoundTrack Audio DSP24 MIDI > 2: Virtual Raw MIDI > > Timers: > 7: system timer > > Mixers: > 0: ESS AudioDrive ES1869 > 1: SigmaTel STAC9721/23 > 2: mixer20 > > > Finally, the list of installed modules.
