[linux-audio-user] ppc audio input..

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



hey martin, 

 thanks for the reply..
 my /proc/asound/devices is identical to yours:
   1:       : sequencer
   0: [0- 0]: ctl
  16: [0- 0]: digital audio playback
  24: [0- 0]: digital audio capture
  33:       : timer
 
 however, i have no entries in my mixer for 'pcm1' or 'monitor', my 
 mixer consists of:
    master | headphone | headphone detection | line
       cd | mic | pc speaker | audiomute | beep
 
 if i do pipe of arecord to hex, no data is listed apart from 
 the first 30-40 lines of header,  which i assume means that this
 is a hardware issue and not simply a quiet mixer.
 
 and yes, i have two ppc specific kernels installed, both 2.4.21ppc
 and 2.4.24-benh.. neither have an effect on this problem.
 
 ciao,
dmotd
