(Jack still has NUMEROUS xruns under virtually no load whatsoever using the intel8x0 driver... while alsaplayer and xmms-alsa hardly skip a beat while pounding the CPU with kernel compiles, but since this isn't the jack mailing list...) I tried compiling the hdsp driver and it tells me: (root@scorpius root)# modprobe snd-hdsp /lib/modules/2.4.21-rc2/kernel/sound/pci/rme9652/snd-hdsp.o: unresolved symbol snd_hwdep_new /lib/modules/2.4.21-rc2/kernel/sound/pci/rme9652/snd-hdsp.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.21-rc2/kernel/sound/pci/rme9652/snd-hdsp.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.21-rc2/kernel/sound/pci/rme9652/snd-hdsp.o: insmod snd-hdsp failed it seems simple to fix, but my knowledge of alsa isn't intimate... yet. It was compiled via: ./configure --with-pcmcia=kernel --with-cards=intel8x0,hdsp I've kind-of gotten it to work in the past, but I had to rev down the firmware, which I'm really hoping I won't have to do soon. (Since the latest windoze drivers required upgraded firmware and that's been the only way I can do any kind of multi-track recording... due to jack's issues, ardour is fairly useless to me for anything other than mixdowns.) If this issue has already been hashed out, I apologize. The web archives of this list start about five days ago. Also, I've read in numerous places that it's a really BAD idea to "bond" multiple sound cards together using one's .asoundrc file since they're not synchronized. Is that still the case if, say, I synced the word clock among multiple multifaces? Would anything change in the .asoundrc file? d! ------------------------------------------------------- Enterprise Linux Forum Conference & Expo, June 4-6, 2003, Santa Clara The only event dedicated to issues related to Linux enterprise solutions www.enterpriselinuxforum.com
