Reenable support for Auzentech X-Fi Prelude in snd-ctxfi module

Reenable support for Auzentech X-Fi Prelude in snd-ctxfi module

[Kamil Kaminski]

Hi guys,
I noticed that latest alsa-driver-unstable does not detect my card as if PCI
IDs were discarded or purposely disabled to only work on Creative cards, the
earlier snapshots used to work fine. This is what I get:

ctatc: Card not recognised
ctxfi: Something wrong!!!
SB-XFi: probe of 0000:06:01.0 failed with error -2

This is the card:

I'm currently using v1.0 ctxfi alsa driver from Creative, It would be nice
to have Auzentech X-Fi Prelude working in 2.6.31 kernel ;)

Thanks.

This card works in the latest but of course the pci id needs changed. I
also have the same issue with the Auzentech X-Fi Forte, but changing
the pci id makes this card work fine. Just make sure to change the
appropriate id for 20k1 cards (pci models (Prelude)) vs 20k2 (pcie
models (Forte))

Info on card:


03:00.0 0403: 1102:000b (rev 03)

        Memory at fbaf0000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
        Memory at fb800000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2M]

        Kernel driver in use: SB-XFi

Support for these pci id's need added to the driver.

Try the very latest alsa-driver.  Now all devices should work (more or
less) no matter whether it's officially supported or not :)
