Here is some follow-up.... First of all, when I unload and then reload snd-hdsp the card is no longer found, even though it remains listed on lspci. Fedora 8 initializes the hdsp upon bootup. The card works properly. However, hdsploader returns "device busy" error. I can boot fedora 8 and load the firmware, then reboot into fedora 12 and the multiface appears to remain initialized. hdspmixer crashes however. BUT, if I run the version of hdspmixer found in my fedora 8 install, it runs and all seems to be working. The hdspconfig works properly by the way. the hdspmixer is version 1.6 in both fedora 8 and 12 installations. Of course the alsa versions are different. My fedora 8 install uses 1.0.16-1 and fedora 12 is using 1.0.22-1. I must conclude that there is a problem with alsa 1.0.22-1 as packaged in fedora 12 in my situation (64-bit quad core intel system) That's my report.....any help from the community is GREATLY appreciated! -Joe Dell'Orfano On 01/21/2010 04:01 PM, Fernando Lopez-Lezcano wrote: > On Wed, 2010-01-20 at 07:34 -0500, Joe Dell'Orfano wrote: > >> Hi all, >> >> I am testing fedora 12 on my 64-bit system using Planet CCRMA >> repositories.
