[Fwd: Re: hdsploader on ppc]

Hi Takashi, Chis, dear list!

Thanks for the information, i did an upgrade to a 2.6.11-5 kernel, and
got alsa-drivers and -tools from the alsa-snapshots page, version
1.0.9rc1. I of course enabled the hotplug-fw-loader in the kernel.

after one reboot, the card worked, even when going to computer suspend
mode(!) and at re-inserting the card.
But after i had one computer crash (i was unplugging the powersupply off
the mutiface, the hotplug_fw loader is unable to load the card at
boot-time, giving:

-------------------------------------------------------------------

lspci sees the card, manually running hdsploader gives:

user@gonzo:/usr/local/src$ hdsploader
hdsploader - firmware loader for RME Hammerfall DSP cards
Looking for HDSP + Multiface or Digiface cards :
Card 0 : PowerMac Screamer Rev 0

(not seeing the card)

i am fairly stuck here, any help would be appreciated!

thanks!

Peter
