soundblaster audigy and the newbie
i've read through a few threads here, and i'm just not following clearly.
i need to get my soundblaster audigy working, and have no idea where to start. i have downloaded the emu10k1 driver, but have no idea what to do with it. any help with this advanced windows user turned pre-school linux user would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance |

Hopefully those instructions help! If not, post back. |
well, when i do those steps, and i type make, it tells me that i shoulc copy the correct .config file into my linux-2.4 directory. and it tells me where to find it. the problem is there are about 15 .config files in there. which one do i copy?

post the output of
uname -a |
In Redhat, they have a lot of .config files in /usr/src/linux/configs. You'll have to find the one that matches your processor and copy that to the /usr/src/linux. EX: "cp /usr/src/linux/configs/******.config /usr/src/linux/.config That worked for me in 7.3. After that, you should be able to compile no problem.

[root@bluedoom emu10k1]# uname -a
Linux bluedoom 2.4.18-3 #1 Thu Apr 18 07:32:41 EDT 2002 i686 unknown [root@bluedoom emu10k1]# i'll try that copy that you suggested, darkmage |
okay, copying and renaming the .config with my processor name in it and renaming it just .config, worked.
now, new problem, when i try make install, i get one error. i have no idea what the error is.......... |
this is what i get...........
** ** The driver was succefully compiled, now install it with: ** make install ** mkdir -p //lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/sound/emu10k1 install -c -m 664 emu10k1.o //lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/sound/emu10k1 install -c -m 664 ac97_codec.o //lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/sound /sbin/depmod -as 2.4.18-3 make: *** [install] Error 1 ??? |
That is weird. I'll try to look for an answer. Anyone setup an Audigy in Redhat before that's seen this error???
|
I don't know if it will make a difference or not but are you compiling as root? If not, you may want to try. You never know!
|
yes, i am.........; )
|
You may need to update your kernel to at least 2.4.18-6, someone please tell me if I'm wrong.
|
well, i updated to the latest on the redhat site, 2.4.18-5, and still no luck
|
okay, i solved that problem, i get no errors throughout the entire install process, until i check it. i get this:
[root@bluedoom sbin]# modprobe emu10k1 /lib/modules/2.4.18-5/kernel/drivers/sound/emu10k1/emu10k1.o: init_module: No such device Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters /lib/modules/2.4.18-5/kernel/drivers/sound/emu10k1/emu10k1.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.18-5/kernel/drivers/sound/emu10k1/emu10k1.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.18-5/kernel/drivers/sound/emu10k1/emu10k1.o: insmod emu10k1 failed [root@bluedoom sbin]# |
