From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0; .NET CLR 1.0.3705) Description of problem: redhat-config-soundcard detects SB Audigy but does not know which kernel module to use Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Limbo on a PC with a SB Audigy soundcard 2. Try to configure sound under the first-time setup wizard 3. Try running redhat-config-soundcard from GNOME's System menu Actual Results: Trying to configure from the first-time setup wizard does not work; nothing happens when I click on the configure button. Running redhat- config-soundcard manually, it identified the soundcard but could not suggest any kernel modules. This is my friend's computer; he had the same soundcard configured properly under Mandrake previously - probably the emu10k1 module. Expected Results: Sound card configured properly, emu10k1 module loaded on start-up by /etc/init.d/sound Additional info:
lspci output?
This is the output of lspci -v for the main device entry; there are two other entries, one for a FireWire OHCI port and one for the Gameport/MIDI. lspci -v 00:08.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy (rev 03) . Subsystem: Creative Labs: Unknown device 0053 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 10 I/O ports at d000 [size=32] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2
I've also noticed this in RH7.3 kernel's 2.4.18-3 2.4.18-4 and now 2.4.18-5. The work around is to compile a kernel from source without the emu10k1 module. Afterwards use the audigy driver found at sourceforge. I'm currently using 2.4.18-4-athlon successfully with the audigy following this method.
Audigy driver added as extra driver for the next build
audigy drivers are now present with kernel-2.4.18-12.3.
