[parisc-linux] Sound on C3000

[parisc-linux] Sound on C3000

[FUHRMAN,SCOTT (HP-Boise,ex1)]

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone else has gotten sound to work on this box, and
if so, how.

I ham enjoying a C3000 (400MHz) machine running hppa Debian, with kernel
2.4.20-32.
Everything is working except the sound.  Sound server can start up, but
does not have a device to output to.  

I checked dmesg and /var/log/messages and did not see anything where the
sound device is being configured, but it looks as though it may be
suported from the info on parisc-linux.org.  The device is a 

AD1889 sound chip (Analog Devices) according to this page:

 http://hwdb.parisc-linux.org/view.php3?type=machine&name=C3000

Anyway, if anyone has had any success in this matter please do tell!


Thanks,

did you load the ad1889 module (or build it into your kernel?) I'm not
sure it's enabled by default... it also doesn't work 100% of the time...
but if the module loads, you should see a message in your bootup log
that identifies the device.

the ad1889 driver is on my todo list of things to fix.... too much to
do, too little time to hack :)

As randolph pointed out, you need to "modprobe ad1889".
If that doesn't work, apt-get the kernel source and rebuild
with ad1889 if you are determined to have a go at it.

ad1889 driver "works" if you use a very low standard to define "working".
ad1889 only takes .wav format input at 48Khz. I forget the command
line for mpg321 to directed mpg321 to spew .wav format directly
at the /dev/audio device. And when playing mp3s, I wouldn't stress
the machine with other workloads while it's running.

[parisc-linux] RAID issues on my C3000

Hey all,
I was just following the RAID HOWTO posted awile back and I ran into a few problems.  I've gotten all the way through creating my RAID partitions and copying the data over via tar, making it bootable (after upgrading my PALO from source - it is now 1.2), editing all the files on the new md devices, and then rebooting.  When I try to boot from the new degraded RAID disk I get that the device is hard booted (with PALO 1.0 not 1.2), displays my patition info (but displays the partitions as "unknown" and not RAID probably due to the Palo 1.0 version), and spits out "Selected kernal: /vmlinux from partition 2" then "Error: Partition 2 must be ext2".  I've created 4 primary partitions on the drive in the following order PALO, boot, swap, and root.  Both Palo and boot are with the first 2GB.  I have tried to stop the arrays and reconfigure them as ext2 with no luck.  Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
derek

I do also for at least 3 of my b180 and it works fine :)

This is typicaly the message from palo < 1.2 (I also encounter this same
message before figuring out that I forget to update palo on my actual root
disk).
So on your non-raid disk install the last palo dpkg (1.2) (I do it without
pb on a woody pre-libc 2.3.0).
[check the version with palo -? | grep version (must be now 1.2)]
relaunch:
# palo -f YourPathToNew/palo.conf -I YourRaidDIsk

It works for me and hope for you too.

I just ran the version of PALO on my root disk and it does say 1.2.  That was my original problem....
