Smile Anything new for us Audigy 2 users?


Just wondering. I'm nearly giving up with this.
I've done a lot irc chatting and googol searching, but I've had no luck getting any kind of drivers for my soundblaster.
Done a bit reading here too.

I really want my sound back, sound quality is better in linux.
(or so I and some others have decided)

Well I got my Audigy 2 working just about a week ago in mdk 9.0, the newest CVS of the emu10k1 project has added support for the Audigy 2 card. Download and install it should work, though Im having problems getting the tools to work correctly. Driver support is good and I get full full sound on my 4.1 speaker set.

emu10k1 driver. It comes with your kernel. modprobe it and you're done.

[root@FOSTIATOR fostiator]# modprobe emu10k1
/lib/modules/2.4.21-0.13mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/emu10k1/emu10k1.o.gz: init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
modprobe: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.21-0.13mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/emu10k1/emu10k1.o.gz failed
modprobe: insmod emu10k1 failed


I'm using Mandrake 9.1

Mandrake uses alsa, and the emu10k1 module is an oss module, you'll need to download it from http://sourceforge.net/projects/emu10k1

in this directory and set KERNEL_SOURCE to the correct location of your
kernel source.

You are currently running kernel version 2.4.21-0.13mdk, the source code should
be for this version.

make[1]: *** [get_version] Error 1

I am also using Mandrake 9.1 and audigy2 (and i'm not getting no sound :P )...this is prolly the error message he got...

What is the correct location so that i can edit the config file?

i got the following: "there's no rule to build the target 'menuconfig'.Halt
