No I was not successful. The installer gives an error message like this
config.status: creating Makefile.conf
make: *** [all] Fehler 2
make: *** [install] Fehler 2
Installation Unsuccessful
And I don't know what this means, unfortunately 
Regards

I had the same error as well, It says this in the readme
1) You must have the fully configured source for the Linux kernel and
ALSA which you
want to use for this device driver. Partial installed
kernels (e.g. From distribution makers) may be unusable for this
action. |

| You won't be able to get a normal driver. Since Creative neved did a real one, only few one betas what are the straigh port of the WIN version... This applies to their Vista drivers too. There was a guy who made good drivers, bud Creative attacked him for this... I hate Creative for this.. |

The beta driver install isn't working because of some old vars that cannot be set with gcc 4.3.1 and some minor problems. but you can make a build with ALSA into the kernel with this hack:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Creative_Labs_X-Fi
I got the already modified source files here:
http://cincev.com/mnt/store/users/admin ... 1.18.2.tgz
Following steps are necessary for sidux:
- make sure you have all files that are needed for alsa build, specified in requirements section in the gentoo wiki, then:
1. download and unpack xfidrv-1.18.2.tgz
2. execute: #./configure && make clean && make KBUILD_NOPEDANTIC=1 && make install
3. backup your /etc/init.d/ctsound, or comment out line:
drivers="ctossrv ctsfman emupia ct20xut ctexfifx cthwiut haxfi ctalsa"
4. insert line: drivers="ctossrv emupia ctsfman haxfi ctalsa ct20xut ctexfifx cthwiut"
That worked fine for me (X-Fi Gamer) and took 5 minutes.
You can test ctsound with /etc/init.d/ctsound start,
you should read something like this: Starting ctsound: Loading X-Fi Drv - Please Wait...
So all went fine!

My question is a little bit late, as I see the date of the thread. But I give your *howto* al try.
Compiling and make install works without problems. But /etc/init.d/ctsound start produces lots off errors

Any idea what that means?
Thanks

Hi,
I'm getting the same messages as thorsden. I got the requirements as listed on the Gentoo howto, removed all past attempts to install the Creative one, got the pre-modified drivers, installed/compiled ok (kernel = 2.6.26)... and I get the messages he gets.
Any tips on how to get past this? |

i have the same Problems as the posters above, but i googled again and found this:
http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=n ... ;px=Njc3NQ
I compiled, but did not installed because it seems to be a bad quality of driver. Until i get better driver i will ontinue to use the onboard sound, thats poor but it works!
X-FI sounds so nice on my Win-XP, but i don't like all the rest of XP any more ... [/i] |
