Question Kudzu hardware detection & Device Class


Hi All,
I'm trying to get my device to get detected by the Kudzu. I know that the hardware definition is stored in pci.ids file. I look into the pci.ids file and found that the device is there. However, when I run kudzu -p, kudzu gives me the wrong device class. It should have been AUDIO instead of OTHER.
Can some point to me where can I add my device information such that kudzu can detect it properly?

Thanks

Are you trying to add an audio device? What is the output from /sbin/lspci -v, and lsmod?

Hi,
I'm not trying to add audio device. I got the my driver loaded and working. However when I use redhat-config-soundcard to detect it, it failed no sound card detected.

Here is my lsmod:
Code:
Module                  Size  Used by    Tainted: P  
nfs                    95440   1  (autoclean)
lockd                  58992   1  (autoclean) [nfs]
sunrpc                 88444   1  (autoclean) [nfs lockd]
nvidia               4765292   6  (autoclean)
snd-azalia             27076   0 
snd-pcm                89568   0  [snd-azalia]
snd-timer              21148   0  [snd-pcm]
snd                    48100   0  [snd-azalia snd-pcm snd-timer]
soundcore               7012   0  [snd]
snd-page-alloc          9684   0  [snd-pcm]
Also here output from lspci -v on the device I'm interested at:
Code:
00:1b.0 Multimedia Laikos HD Audio : Intel Corp. 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 03)
	Subsystem: Intel Corp.: Unknown device d401
	Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 16
	Memory at febf8000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
	Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2
	Capabilities: [60] Message Signalled Interrupts: 64bit+ Queue=0/0 Enable-
	Capabilities: [70] #10 [0091]
Lastly here is the kudzu -p log specifically on the device
Code:
class: OTHER
bus: PCI
detached: 0
driver: i810_audio
desc: "Intel Corp.|82801FB/FR (ICH6/ICH6R) Intel HD Audio Controller"
vendorId: 8086
deviceId: 2668
subVendorId: 8086
subDeviceId: d401
pciType: 1
pcibus:  0
pcidev: 1b
pcifn:  0

I have dig into kudzu code and I think kudzu can't detect the audio device because the class is OTHER instead of AUDIO

Thanks

After some googling, it looks as if you're going to have to install the latest alsa package, upgrade your kernel, or both.
good luck.
