Creative X-Fi Xtreme Audio (CA0110 chip)

Creative X-Fi Xtreme Audio (CA0110 chip)

[Manuel C.]

Hi,
I want to bring to your attention the Creative X-Fi Xtreme Audio card
with CA0110 chip, it is also bundled with some MSI motherboards.

CA0110 web page: http://www.creative.com/oem/products/chips/CA0110.asp

>From that web page:
"CA0110 is a PCI Express audio chip using the CA0111 audio mode or High
Definition Audio mode.

[...]

CA0106 mode
- Same as original CA0111."

So it should be a PCI Express version of the CA0111 chip (and CA0111
could be similar to the CA0106 chip).

The CA0110 chip isn't even listed in the Creative products matrix on the
wiki. Is a CA0110 driver under development? Thank you.

CA0110 HDA mode is supported in this tree:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound-unstable-2.6.git;a=summary
CA0111 (PCI version) is supported by snd-ca0106, not sure if CA0106
mode can be supported that way too.

Well, don't know what's going on, but anway, snapshots of
sound-unstable-2.6 are located here:
http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/alsa/alsa-driver/alsa-driver-unstable-snapshot.tar.bz2
Lastest one doesn't compile for me on Debian 2.6.26 (pcsp problems or
something), but you can always isolate the exact drivers you need and
it's likely that those will compile without problems.

Now I noticed that for some reason link got broken.

Anyway, the correct link is:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound-unstable-2.6.git;a=summary

FYI, I re-enabled CA0110 support again in unstable tree while it was
disabled due to the conflict with sbxfi driver.

It'd be appreciated if anyone with CA0110 can test the driver.
The snapshot tarball is available at:
    ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/snapshot/alsa-driver-unstable-snapshot.tar.gz

Note that *.gz is the original one and *.bz2 is automatically created
by kernel.org server.  If you don't find *.bz2, just wait for a
minute.


thanks,

Takashi
