I asked this question on the ALSA user's list with no response (yet!) Thought maybe someone on this group may have come across this. Can't get midisport8x8 to work. I think that the firmware is not loading. Some notes: --- I have usbfs running (the dir is there), installed the hotplug and fxload packages from linux-hotplug and "make install" the midisport_firmware-0.5. --- modprobe: ================================ # --- ALSA configuration alias char-major-116 snd alias char-major-14 soundcore alias snd-card-0 snd-ice1712 alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio # OSS/Free portion alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 # card #1 (Delta 66) 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 # card #2 (midipsort 8x8) alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1 ================================ --- cat /proc/asound/cards shows just my Delta66 card. --- cat /proc/bus/usb/devices shows just info on the two USB controllers (as does lsusb) --- lsmod (relevant)" ===================================== Module Size Used by snd_pcm_oss 54312 0 snd_mixer_oss 18432 2 snd_pcm_oss realcap 4240 0 commoncap 4736 1 realcap snd_seq 50576 8 snd_usb_audio 67680 0 snd_ice1712 63688 5 snd_ice17xx_ak4xxx 4224 1 snd_ice1712 snd_pcm 85128 5 snd_pcm_oss,snd_usb_audio,snd_ice1712 snd_page_alloc 11016 1 snd_pcm snd_timer 23684 2 snd_seq,snd_pcm snd_ak4xxx_adda 5760 2 snd_ice1712,snd_ice17xx_ak4xxx snd_cs8427 10880 1 snd_ice1712 snd_ac97_codec 63748 1 snd_ice1712 snd_i2c 5248 2 snd_ice1712,snd_cs8427 snd_mpu401_uart 7680 1 snd_ice1712 snd_rawmidi 23076 2 snd_usb_audio,snd_mpu401_uart snd_seq_device 8200 2 snd_seq,snd_rawmidi snd 54532 23 snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_seq,snd_usb_audio,snd_ice1712,snd_ice17xx_ak4xxx,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_ak4xxx_adda,snd_cs8427,snd_ac97_codec,snd_i2c,snd_mpu401_uart,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device soundcore 6496 2 snd ===================================== Midisport does not show up anywhere. So, I fear that fxload and/or hotplug scripts are not working. How can I check this? And, how can I enable these to work (if this is the problem)? thanks much! brad -- ________________________________ Hear us online: www.Sonaural.com Brad Fuller (408) 799-6124 ** Sonaural Audio Studios ** (408) 799-6123 West San Jose (408) 799-6124 Cambrian
