awe-drv istallation problems
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
I have just finished recompiling the kernel (2.0.29, Debian 1.3) to
include the awe-drv. This worked quite well and the kernel booted
properly. My AWE32 sound card works as it did before (ie. cat foo.au
>/dev/audio plays foo.au). However, the AWE synth device seems to be
missing. Documentation suggests one of three ways to configure the PnP
card:
- Initialize the card via ISA PnP tools, and load the sound module.
- Initialize the card on DOS, and load linux by loadlin.exe
- Use PnP driver (for Linux-2.0.x)
Do I need to install the PnP driver and recompile the kernel again? It
seems to me that I should see some boot-time error messages if the awedrv
can't detect my AWE32 card (I don't see any error messages so I am
assuming, perhaps incorrectly, that the PnP driver is included in the
kernel source). The reason I assume that the AWE synth device is missing
is from the following output
terrapin:~$ sfxload -i synthgm.sbk
No AWE synth device is found
terrapin:~$
terrapin:~$ sfxtest -I
No AWE synth device is found
terrapin:~$
Any ideas what I have done wrong? Any help is gratefully appreciated.

Cheers, Colin.
