Hi Takashi,
first of all, thank you for developing this driver.
I tested it today. It works, so far.
But two annoying things. As you mentioned, I got problems, if the
onboard sound modules are loaded. Then i get no sound out auf my xfi.
If I disable the loading of snd-hda-intel modules while booting, then it
works.
The second problem is, that SIDE and SURROUND connectors are
interchanged. I'm absolutly sure, it works fine under windows and the
connector colors are also correct.
If I run speaker-test -c8 the SIDE Speakers sounds come out of my REAR
(SURROUND) Speakers, while nothing is coming out of my rear speakers, if
i'm using speaker-test -c6

Is there a new driver that was supposed to be referenced in this or
something?
My sb0670 still has the clicks and is unusable with this driver.
Thanks!

It's likely the collision of PCI device ID.
Some X-Fi models support both HD-audio and emu20kx-native modes. The
modes are switched by some magical sequence.
Anyway, please run alsa-info.sh with --no-upload option, and attach
the generated file.

So, the side channels (channel 7 & 8) and the rear channels (3 & 4)
are swapped when running with 8 channel mode?

I let the kernel auto probe all sound modules and generated then the
alsa-info.txt
It's attached.

The REAR and SURROUND channels are swapped in 4, 6 and 8channel mode ...
so they always swapped. (speaker-test)
AND because there are swapped in 6channel mode too .... there is nothing
coming out of the rear channels, if I connect everything right. I double
checked it with windows and with cable colors.
Sincerely,
Frashman

Debug the problem, write code that fixes it and then send in a patch.
That's why this is the alsa *developers* mailing list.

Maybe you haven't been following the thread. I've been trying to debug
the problem. As I mentioned to Takashi, there's not a point where it
broke, it never worked with this driver.
There have always been clicks.
However, it does not have clicks with the following driver:
XFiDrv_Linux_Public_US_1.00.tar.gz
Sending out condescending messages like this after I was responding to
the "testers wanted" mailer which said all cards should be supported now
is completely unproductive.

Well, the current situation is that I've got no other report but you
regarding the specific problem. There is a known issue with openal,
accordingly, but not all apps. So, this is very likely a different
issue.
Actually, it's still the phase to gather all information to know which
part exactly is problematic. If you find any other guys that have the
exact same problem, let me know. It would make easier to find out a
problem pattern, either for finding out the culprit or reproducing the
problem.
Or, you can do trial-and-error by comparing the driver above and the
current one (maybe the first committed version is easier to compare).
This can't be done without the real hardware, so it's actually up to
you how to fix the issue...

Thanks.
Basically the driver from creative, the old one, works without clicks:
XFiDrv_Linux_US-1.18.tar.gz
>From April, 2008
and this one works without clicks.
XFiDrv_Linux_Public_US_1.00.tar.gz
lspci lists it as:
03:03.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB X-Fi
and in xp, it uses the same x-fi drivers as the others.
I have never been able to get any driver you released to work with it.
Can you tell me the first driver you had that you recommend I test it
with?

So, do both versions work on yours?
What are the differences between them?

GIT is the easiest way. For example, look at the page below:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound-2.6.git;a=history;f=sound/pci/ctxfi;h=91c958a7e171313fe68d728a3b4860287ad40aa7;hb=HEAD

Please post your patch to ML (and Cc to me).
Give a proper changelog and your sign-off together.

My patch description:
On Soundblaster X-FI Titanium with emu20k2 the SIDE and SURROUND channels were swapped and wrong.
I double checked it with connector colors and creative soundblaster windows drivers.
So I swapped them to the true order.
Now "speaker-test -c6" and "speaker-test -c8" are working fine.
It's my first patch submit ever, so if I've done anything wrong, please correct me ;-)

Thanks, applied now.
(Though, the patch embedded in your mail couldn't be applied, likely
due to your MUA. Anyway, I edited it manually...)

I think the difference is the 1.00 is newer, but just listed at a

Sorry,
Meant to mention the OSS Drivers from 4front from a while back also
worked without clicking.

Hm, did it really work even though your device is emu20k2?
I thought their driver supported only emu20k1. Maybe added later.
Anyway, you can try the latest snapshot, which now includes the native
timer support on emu20k2. It was only for emu20k1 until today.

The PCI ID looks different from what snd-hda-intel driver supports.
When compiled together with snd-ctxfi, snd-hda-intel only probes
PCI ID 1002:0009.
Are you sure that it's hda-intel that interferes the xfi?
Any relevant kernel messages or asound entry when this happens?

Hi
Got it, there was a wrong default entry in
/etc/modprobe.d/50-sound.conf
..made by alsaconf
alias snd-card-0 snd-ctxfi
alias sound-slot-0 snd-ctxfi
moved it now to
/etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf
and chanced to:
alias snd-card-0 snd_ctxfi
alias sound-slot-0 snd_ctxfi
now it's fine ... so ... no conflict ... sorry.
but maybe someone could look, why alsaconf had done this.

Found another problem ... maybe it isn't a bug ...
If I raise all volumes in alsamixer to 100% it starts to crackle while playing music ...
If I lower one of the mixer volumes down to 90% it's fine.
Maybe it's just overdriven ... but I'm relative sure, in windows I can gain everything to 100% without to be overdriven.
For now, I've set the PCM volume control to 90%, then I can do whatever I want with the master volume ;-)
Greetings
Frank

The former file name is the requirement by the recent
module-init-tools. The question is rather why it doesn't work on your
system. Maybe modprobe.d/* itself doesn't work?
Anyway, alsaconf is nowadays no longer recommended. It's good for
detecting some very old ISA devices without PnP, but not for other
normal devices.

I play around with my X-Fi now,
I'm wondering if there is a way to support this Headphones/4/5.1/7.1 up-/downmix modes from Windows.
Stereo/Surround ...
And in what I'm much more interested is,
Bass-Redirection ... because I use a Teufel - Concept E Magnum 5.1 speaker system.
It's connected via analogue 5.1 cables. And by default, nothing is coming out of LFE if play usual stereo music.
There is also an option in the windows drivers.
I found out, i could configure .asoundrc to do this, but is this the usual way?
Thanks for help.

Unless any information about the DSP programming on emu20kx is opened,
there is no way to implement in the driver side.

Ok thanks.
So you still didn't have specifications from Creative?
Because I red some time ago, creative gave the specs to the opensource community?
How is it possible to write this drivers then? Only reengineering from their opensource drivers?
Impressive!!
So I understand it right, everything is more or less software based right now?
We must change this ... (I would help you out, so far I can)
But thanks again for your work,
I have clear sound to here some music on linux, a first step.

That is correct. I have the datasheets from Creative and they are not
complete data sheets. They do not include the DSP workings of the
card. They simply explain how to configure the card to bypass the DSP
unit.
The datasheet does contain some info regarding how one might use
hardware mixing as this uses a separate "mixing unit" within the chip.
I do not think that this "mixing unit" has been implemented in the
open source driver.
The DSP itself is very complex and as a result, reverse engineering it
will be difficult. It would be possible if one had the time but I
don't have the time.
I consider it a similar task to if one was needing to reverse engineer
the x86 chip without having any of the instruction set.
Kind Regards
James

Takashi,
Fwiw, I reinstalled my kernel to get the old alsa modules back
Linux home 2.6.29.5-191.fc11.i586 #1 SMP Tue Jun 16 23:11:39 EDT 2009
i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
and reinstalled this driver:
XFiDrv_Linux_Public_US_1.00
and I am able to use my xfi again without clicks. Unfortunately, this
driver seems to be no longer developed and has some other issues such as
with skype and pulseaudio. I'd REALLY prefer to use your driver but I'm
not quite sure what to do.

Then you should contact with Creative guys.
They provided the driver after all.
The addresses can be obtained in GIT changelog.

This isn't *my* driver at all.
The driver code is originally given by Creative guys.

This must be a bug I recently introduced.
Now it's fixed in the latest snapshot. Give it a try again.

Ah ok, sorry.
I just know that, from what I can see, there are no plans for them to
develop the driver anymore and was looking for something for the future,
that's why I'm hoping to get my card working with your driver. Also, I
get no sound at all with your driver when I tell it to do surround.

For testing this kind of problem, use aplay and try different
--period-size and --buffer-size options. mplayer isn't suitable for
primary testing.
If the click period doesn't change regardless of the period size
option value, it implies that the noise doesn't come from the buffer
set up but rather from other routes. If the noise period changes with
different period size options, the click noise is a buffer setup
issue.
In addition, it'd be better to use aplay with -Dplughw to avoid the
automatic routing to PA.
Also, your description was unclear. It it only click without other
tone, or repeated sound, or the click noise appear on the normal
playback, or what? The repeated sound bug with emu20k2 (it didn't
appear with emu20k1) was fixed as I mentioned. But, if it's click
noise on the normal playback, then I don't know. Better to ask
Creative guys...
thanks,
Takashi

I just CANNOT understand this. I disabled usb and hda-intel, updated to
latest snapshot.
with aplay, i get snaps every 1/2 second. This blows my mind.

Takashi,
The latest snapshot has the same clicking/snapping. Can you give me
your POC for creative? I just cannot figure out why their driver works
fine and the alsa ones do not.
