Hello people !...have a problem with a Crystal soundcard
.Well, I've tried to configure it with pnptools, but it seems that the output from pnpdump (pnpdump /etc/isapnp.config) doesn't help me too much: isapnp /etc/isapnp.config (yes I tried to uncoment some lines from there, but every time seems to be conflicts ).Does anybody have an idea about the values I should try for my Crystal CS 4232 chipset sound card ?
I downloaded from the internet ALSA driver, and have the appropriate sound module.
Thanks in advance

Rep:
I have the same card and it was a pain setting it up. Get the newest kernel, compile cs4232 module, then add:
/sbin/modprobe ad1848
/sbin/modprobe uart401
/sbin/modprobe cs4232 io=0x534 irq=11 dma=1 dma2=3
To whatever file loads modules at boot in your system. After that crate /dev/dsp and /dev/audio if you dont have them already, put chmod 666 on them so everyone can use them, and fire up xmms and it should work, if it doesnt go to prefrences-->outputpligin-->click on "use alternatre driver" and enter /dev/dsp or /dev/audio and it should work. If it doesnt try cat /any/filename.au > /dev/dsp and u should hear a sound. If that doesnt work then the IRQ, DMA1, DMA2 or IO adress i gave you are wrong ad you have to find the right ones for your system....
Thanks, but I've rezoled that problem!
I sow the /proc/isapnp output and from there "guessed " the right values for my ISA sound card(it was so simple with 2.4.3 kernel I have).
