Crystal Semiconductors CS4232 sound card: is it possible to configure it?

(1/8) > >>

t18:
Hello, I've happily installed TC on my old Pentium 166 but can't find the entry relevant to the CS4232 sound card in the modules.dep file.

It's a PCI card, not a ISA one.

Any way to get it working?

Many thanks

The  modules.alias  file says you want cs4236:

--- Code: ---alias snd_cs4232 snd_cs4236
--- End code ---

Hi Rich,

I already tried the cs4236. Here's the output:

If you reboot without having any alsa extensions loaded, what does this give:
--- Code: ---tce-load -i alsa-config
tce-load -i alsa
sudo modprobe snd_cs4236
aplay -l
--- End code ---

Hi t18
Looking through the kernel sources showed support for cs4236
in the isa directory but not in the pci directory.

Maybe there's a driver specific to your board.
Install  pci-utils.tcz  and post the results of this command:

--- Code: ---lspci -nn
--- End code ---
