Creative CT4620 Soundcard in Qube2 with debian
Hi,
on the 30.12.2004 I had installed in my old Qube2 (which was sold)
a Creative CT4830 OEM with EMU10K1 Chipset - ( http://
lbs.elektroda.net/grafa/Live/ct4830%20d.jpg )
which often hard locks when playing mp3's with mpg321
(that could be read in the debian-mailinglist archive in the thread
"Please test CoLo 1.15-1")
The old lspci for this CT4830 card was:
% lspci
0000:00:0a.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Live!
EMU10k1 (rev 07)
0000:00:0a.1 Input device controller: Creative Labs SB Live! MIDI/
Game Port (rev 07)
Now for my "new" Qube2 I did get yesterday on the fleamarket one of
the first SB Live! which has been produced.
A Creative CT4620 - ( http://www.dearhoney.idv.tw/SoundCard/SBLive/
PC2000-200002/ct4620.jpg )
which is the full version and the CT4670 was the Value Version -
( http://www.dearhoney.idv.tw/SoundCard/SBLive/PC2000-200002/
ct4670.jpg )
The CT4620 has golden full-metal jacks instead of the colored plastic
jacks from the Value Version.
Additional the CT4620 has a larger expansion-connector ( like the
CT4830 ) for a Live! Drive.
The CT4620 doesnt seem to lockup my Qube2 with the same mpg321
( Version 0.59q (2002/03/23) )
which I also used in December 2004.
The lspci for my "new" CT4620 Soundcard is:
0000:00:0a.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Live!
EMU10k1 (rev 04)
0000:00:0a.1 Input device controller: Creative Labs SB Live! MIDI/
Game Port (rev 01)
But I could be that kernel-updates or driver also has been updated
since 30.12.2004
that could resolve on my new Qube2 the hard-lockups that my old Qube2
had.
PS: Is there any Internet-Radio-Streaming-Client available? Couldnt find
a special tool with apt-cache search.
I want a applicaion for console (like mpg321 which kann only plays
mp3 out of the internet but
couldnt play a stream)
Or is there a console-"gui" for vlc ?
Bye
Guido.
