I tried kernel 2.6.26-1.slh.3-sidux-amd64,
My saa7134-card is now recognised correctly again.
Only the TV-Sound is somehow weired now. I have to switch the Sound-card (NVidia CK804, onboard) into 2-channel mode (in kmix) if I want to hear/record tv- or radio-sound. All other sound-sources (PCM, CD) seem to work with 4-channel-mode as before. Also the balance seem not to work always correct but I have to look still more deeply into that.

regards

Reiner Schmidt

dacorsa,

what information you have provided is inaccurate and insufficient. First of all, modprobe commands only occur _after_ compiling a kernel module; you did not include the output of compiling as stated. Secondly, the message tells you to investigate output of "dmesg", which would reveal the details of the symbol disagreement.

Please take more care when reporting problems, or else you waste alot of time and do not get expedient results.

Thanks, Kel.

Post subject: USB soundcard fails  PostPosted: Aug 07, 2008 - 10:12 PM

I have a problem with my usb soundcard now which I use as a second soundcard for redirecting sound to my tv. This worked fine with kernel 2.6.25 and earlier but fails with kernel 2.6.26 (have tried 2.6.26-1.slh.4-sidux-686 and 2.6.26-1.slh.3-sidux-686). It seems to fail completely and its place is taken by the internal pc speaker (the thing on the motherboard that beeps).

The soundcard is recognized as (from lsusb)
Code:
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0ccd:0028 TerraTec Electronic GmbH Aureon 5.1 MkII


I see the following in /var/log/messages which I think points out where it fails
Code:
Aug  7 22:31:27 semmentjern kernel: snd-usb-audio: probe of 2-1:1.0 failed with error -5
Aug  7 22:31:27 semmentjern kernel: usbcore: registered new interface driver snd-usb-audio

I have googled this error without finding anything relevant.

/proc/asound/modules says:
Code:
 0 snd_cmipci
 1 snd_pcsp

With kernel 2.6.25 (and earlier) it said
Code:
 0 snd_cmipci
 1 snd_usb_audio

pcsp is as far as I know the internal pc speaker... No good for watching movies.

The following section from /etc/modprobe.d might also be relevant (last 10 lines or so):
Code:
# Prevent abnormal drivers from grabbing index 0
options bt87x index=-2
options cx88_alsa index=-2
options snd-atiixp-modem index=-2
options snd-intel8x0m index=-2
options snd-via82xx-modem index=-2
# Keep snd-pcsp from beeing loaded as first soundcard
options snd-pcsp index=-2

options snd-cmipci index=0
options snd-usb-audio index=1

The last two lines here were added by me to make sure that my pci card is the primary sound card and the usb card is the secondary sound card. This has not been changed recently.

Hi folks,
I confirm the 'pcspkr' error that lots people have.
What I find more picky is that while booting it thinks I am on battery power hence skipping system check on each boot.
Once logged in KDE and all , I get the plugged power icon and no problem whatsoever. Wonder what line I could use to perform manual system check while problem is there Rolling Eyes
Nice work.
Code:

Now I get another error but no real hickup donno if serious or not -

I have found another clue to what is wrong with my usb sound. When I am inserting my usb sound card I get the following from tailing /var/log/messages

Code:
Aug 16 14:58:10 semmentjern kernel: usb 2-1.2: new full speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 13
Aug 16 14:58:10 semmentjern kernel: usb 2-1.2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

Aug 16 14:58:10 semmentjern kernel: usb 2-1.2: Product: USB Audio


However, if I do the same thing in tty1, I get two extra lines on top that is not from /var/log/messages:
Code:

cannot find the slot for index 1 (range 0-1), error: -6
cannot create card instance 0

The same two lines are also displayed when booting if I have enabled the on-board sound chip (which is an internal usb device, CM6501 USB from C-Media "Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0d8c:0201 C-Media Electronics, Inc. CM6501"). So my problem is not specific to my particular usb sound card.

- 2.6.26 kernels still crash as guests in virtualbox, this issue is still under investigation.

Was wondering if there was a fix. Did a search but my german is a bit limited. Embarassed

Thanks.

With kernel 2.6.26-2.slh.6-sidux-686 this error/bug is still in place
Code:
ck804xrom ck804xrom_init_one(): Unable to register resource 0x00000000ff000000-0x00000000ffffffff - kernel bug?
CFI: Found no ck804xrom @ffc00000 device at location zero

cfi_cmdset_0002: Disabling erase-suspend-program due to code brokenness.

Any explanation? Still harmless?

I also have the pcspkr 2.6.26 kernel bug. The CPU goes to 100% load & this appears to be the artsd & I have no sound from my Creative Audigy 4 sound card. Every so often the PC speaker gives a croak though! This bug is the same with both the Debian & sidux 2.6.26 Kernels.
All was well with the 2.6.25 kernels.
My trouble is, my system is a fresh Debian Testing netinstall with sidux repositories & the smxi script & the current kernels are only 2.6.26
As I know the 2.6.25 kernels work fine on my AMD64 system I have installed the last of the 2.6.25 sidux kernels (2.6.25-14.slh.2-sidux-amd64) through the kernel options in smxi.
So now I have sound, but, smxi fails to install the nvidia driver for my nvidia GT6600 because the kernel headers & dependencies are no longer available for 2.6.25!
Can anyone tell me where I will be able to find the headers etc for 2.6.25-14.slh.2-sidux-amd64?

Thanks,

straykat

I am still using Kernel 2.6.26-1.slh.3-sidux-686 because it is the last Kernel that works with my Creative Labs SB Audigy. I have no sound at all when using later Kernels.

Found a Ubuntu bug report about the snd-pcsp module loading up the pc speaker instead of the sound card in the 2.6.26 kernel.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... bug/242966
I blacklisted snd-pcsp in etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.
I then was able to reboot into the 2.6.26 kernel with sound Smile
Hope this helps others with this problem.
