Trouble configuring ISA sound card
  • Maximus559Maximus559 December 2010
    I'm trying to get my sound card to work - so far with no success. The chipset name is CS4232, and it uses the ISA interface. When I was running Damn Small Linux, I could use the following commands to get the sound card working. However, they don't work on SliTaz.

    modprobe sound
    modprobe ad1848
    insmod uart401
    insmod cs4232 io=0x530 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0 mpuio=0x330 mpuirq=5

    Are these commands OSS-specific and thus incompatible with ALSA? If so, how can I translate them into something ALSA can deal with?

    I've tried running soundconf, also with no success.

    Have you tried alsamixer and checked if the sound was set as mute or all the way down? If the volume is muted the 'button' says MM, if it's enabled, it's green and says 00.

    You don't have all modules for your card. Only ad1848 is compiled as module on my slitaz 3.0 kernel 2.6.30.6
    $ zcat /proc/config.gz | grep -i ad1848
    CONFIG_SND_AD1848=m
    There is no sign of uart401 and cs4232.

    Never mind... while the forums were down, I figured it out. Turns out the sound card on the Inspiron 3000 is actually a CS4237B. The following command (issued as root) is necessary to make it work:

    modprobe snd-cs4236 port=0x530 cport=0xF00 isapnp=0 dma1=1 dma2=0 irq=5
