That link ends up pointing to the same link I just replied to you earlier. I've been running that version since it first came out.(0.20a) And that's still not quite right with the Audigy 1. (Rear speakers are Mirrored). We'll just have to wait for an update I guess.

Yes, when installing different hardware which you have an onboard equivalent. You MUST disable that device else it will cause problems. As to "What should you do next??" Well, have you checked the site below to see if the Audigy 2 support has been added?? http://sourceforge.net/projects/emu10k1 As I believe that this card is a little different to the Audigy 1. Which is one reason I haven't gone out and bought an Audigy 2 yet. (Chipset is a little different, but I haven't been able to get all the details yet.)

But the issue is that now the audigy 2 is recognised, it does not work properly via the analog port. i.e. i hear distorted sound from the digital port, but nothing from the 3rd analog port emu-config -a does nothing to help. what should i do next? -----Original Message----- From: Wolfgang Gill [mailto:wolfgang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, 13 March 2003 10:43 AM To: 'psyche-list@xxxxxxxxxx' Subject: RE: Audigy 2: almost working... some further questions. For starters I would disable ALL references of the onboard Sound card in the BIOS. EG: sound, midi and Game ports. I have to do the same with my Audigy 1. (Plus of course the onboard sound card will also takeup system resources which will be best used by the Audigy 2 card.)

I have a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 and have been trying to use the latest cvs of emu10k1 to get it to work. I am almost there, but have one question. I can hear sound from the digital port through the analog speakers, but cannot hear anything out of the analog port (3rd from the firewire port). emu-config -a makes no difference. Here i have posted my modules.conf file from /etc and also the files in /usr/local/etc that relate to the audigy and the emu10k1... these are scripts and the emu10k1 conf file Note that I have onboard motherboard Intel AC'97 sound that seems to be getting in the way as well, and the below shows how i tried to solve this by disabling it on the BIOS. Is there an issue with the drivers trying to access a port on the front case that is normally found on the Audigy 2 Platenum ??... my audigy 2 does not have this. My history to get it to work thus far... Have installed the kernel I wish to use along with the right kernel source. In this case 2.4.18-24.8.0. so /usr/src has a symlink called linux-2.4 which points to /usr/src/linux-2.4.18-24.8.0/. I also copied this to a symlink called linux in the same dir as people mentioned this might be useful. so ls on /usr/src is linux (a symlink to linux-2.4.18-24.8.0/) linux-2.4 (a symlink to linux-2.4.18-24.8.0/) linux-2.4.18-24.8.0/ Have configured the modules as follows. in /lib/modules i located config file in /lib/modules/2.4.18-24.8.0/configs. It was called kernel-2.4.18-i686.config. I copied this file to /lib/modules/2.4.18-24.8.0/ and called it .config as suggested by posts to this list. (Although someone told me you should not have to do this). Now I got the emu10k1 stuff from cvs and installed it using make all seemed ok so i did make again, all seemed fine, so then make install make tools make install-tools This all seemed fine On rebooting my system, I found that there was no sound. The system was trying to use the onboard sound which is an intel based AC'97 sound card. I then set this to be disabled on the BIOS and rebooted getting a message about missing hardware at startup.. on removing the configuration for this device ... the boot process goes ok and that is where i start getting sound out of the digital port. I would like to know how to get sound from the normal port. I would also like to know if it is a problem having the onboard sound device enabled with the BIOS. I.e. i want to have it enabled but not to use it in linux because I use it in another OS. what should i do for this? <<emu-script>> <<modules.conf>> <<audigy-script>> <<emu10k1.conf>> ###################################################################### Attention: This e-mail message is privileged and confidential.
