The EMU 0404 soundcard and the Audigy driver...

[Tyler Knott]

I'm not quiet sure whether to post this here or on the alsa-user
mailing list, but seeing as this information is more usefule to the
development of than use of ALSA I decided to put it here.

I have an EMU 0404 soundcard and I just tried the patch below (adapted
from the one suggested at
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.alsa.devel/22204) to try and get
the EMU10k1/Audigy driver to work with this card.  It does recognize
it, but I don't get any sound (not that I expected to anyways).  Mixer
settings do not seem to have any affect (and curiously none of the
channels, except for the Tone channel, are muteable).

----PATCH---- (not a real diff-generated patch)
alsa/alsa-kernel/pci/emu10k1/emu10k1_main.c (@ about line 750)
  	 .emu10k2_chip = 1,
  	 .ca0102_chip = 1,
  	 .ac97_chip = 1} ,

 + 	 .driver = "Audigy", .name = "E-MU 0404 [4002]",

  	{.vendor = 0x1102, .device = 0x0004,
  	 .driver = "Audigy", .name = "Audigy 1 [Unknown]",
  	 .id = "Audigy",

The EMU0404 is not currently supported in Linux yet. The reason you get 
no sound is because the EMU0404 has a FPGA on it, that we don't yet know 
how to program.
I have an EMU1212m that I am working on reverse engineering, so bear 
with us.
