how to get audio working on ultra 80 w/ debian testing
I can get sound by plugging headphones or speakers into the cdrom
drive and some applications send sound out the (admittadly not bad
sounding) tower speaker. None of the outputs on the sound card itself
seem to work though. How can I get that to work?
I'm not sure on sparc, but on x86 I'd be asking these questions:
What version of kernel do you have (uname -a)?
abe@ai:/etc$ uname -a
Linux ai 2.4.18 #2 Thu Apr 11 14:37:17 EDT 2002 sparc64 GNU/Linux
Which version of Debian did you install (stable, testing, unstable)?
testing
What's the output of "lspci"?
ai:/etc# lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Sun Microsystems Computer Corp. Psycho PCI Bus Module
00:01.0 Bridge: Sun Microsystems Computer Corp. EBUS (rev 01)
00:01.1 Ethernet controller: Sun Microsystems Computer Corp. Happy Meal

01:01.2 USB Controller: NEC Corporation USB 2.0 (rev 04)
ai:/etc#
What's the output of "lsmod"?
ai:/etc# lsmod
Module Size Used by Not tainted
rtc 1928 0
openpromfs 12536 0 (unused)
hid 15568 0 (unused)
openprom 4900 0
cs4231 21392 1
audio 22912 2 [cs4231]
parport 31264 0 (unused)
ai:/etc#
I don't see anything like a sound card in the lspci output. In lsmod,
cs4231 is the module for the onboard sound on the ultra 80.
I can only listen to cd's by plugging headphones or speakers into the
jack on the front of the cdrom. gxine and xine output audio through the
tower speaker.
Thanks!
Abe
