Ok, I just got Mandrake 9.0, but I also had this problem in 8.2. I have a Turtle Beach Montego sound card, and i've tried the Aureal drivers from sourceforge. I can't quite get it to install, i get a huge list of error messages when i run the makefile... I'm not sure how to paste in the console log so i'll just tell you..
It says mostly about how you can't include certain libraries and how i should make symbolic links and modify the makefile...
So I ask, has anybody gotten Mandrake9 and an Aureal sound card to work?
My system has a Turtle Beach Montego II soundcard that came with the system (Dell Dimension XPS T 450). I installed Red Hat 8 about a week ago on this system after my laptop, which was my primary linux box came back from a repair shop destroyed.
I have not been able to get any sound working under Red Hat 8. The Montego II uses the same chip (8830) as the Aureal Vortex 2. The Red Hat soundcard configuration tool reports the card is an Aureal Vortex 2. When this machine ran Windows 200 Professional (glad those days are over!), I had to use a Vortex 2 driver to make sound work. No luck with the drivers on sourceforge for Aureal cards. When I try to compile the driver, I get errors. I'll post the errors as a reply to this post, since it's too long otherwise.
The readme that comes with the Aureal drivers states that "if you get "unresolved symbol" errors during the install,
rebuild your kernel with sound support (soundcore) built in
(not a module)." I don't know whether or not the Red Hat 8 2.4.18-27.8.0 kernel includes the soundcore. I installed the kernel recompilation tools, but don't know how to use them. Would recompiling the kernel help? Has anyone made an OEM Turtle Beach Montego II work under Red Hat 8 or any other linux distribution?

make: *** [au_audio.o] Error 1
The way I finally made the drivers work was by getting the latest drivers off the web access to CVS for the sourceforge driver project at http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/v...ureal/aureal/. The non-CVS version doesn't seem to work on newer kernels. An arts driver is in process, buit is far from finished, so use the above URL to go to the old driver's CVS version. If you don't want errors about gcc2 precompiled sections when loading the module, use a hex editor to open the asp30.o file and searching for gcc2 in text mode and changing it to gcc3. If your sound card uses a different aureal chip, you may need to modify one of the other .o files instead. Then compile the files using make, make install, and then make install-all. To load the module, type /sbin/insmod au8830 to load the module. If you didn't hex edit before compiling, you can use the -f switch to force the module to load. It is also possible to hex edit the au8830 module, but remember that you will have to re-edit the new module if you switch kernels and need to recompile. Good luck!
This is what I had to do to get my Montego II working:
Make sure to have the Kernel development packages installed, then
1. Get drivers from aureal.sourceforge.net
2. Unpack
In au_audio.c there will be 2 lines that say something like (depending on where you got your drivers)
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(2, 5, 8)
change the (2, 5, 8) to refer to your kernel version Redhat 9 should be (2, 4, 20) I think)
Leave the lines that say
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(2, 4, 0)
alone.
3. Edit the Makefile, replacing -mpentium with -march=pentium and -mpentiumpro with -march=pentiumpro
4. As per bolt in blue's instructions, edit the asp30.o file to read gcc3 instead of gcc2.
5. at a prompt type :
make clean
su
make
make install
make install-all
6. load the module using /sbin/insmod au8830 to load the module.
Alternatively, to load the module automatically at boot up, paste
alias sound-slot-0 aureal
alias sound aureal
alias midi aureal
probeall aureal soundcore au8830
install au8830 insmod -f au8830
into /etc/modules.conf
7. The first thing you'll probably want to try is listening to an mp3 with xmms, but you'll have to get a plugin for it from http://www.xmms.org because Redhat 9 disables mp3 playing for reasons unknown to me.
