Re: how to get audio working on ultra 80 w/ debian testing

["Arvind R." <arvind@acarlab.com>]

Hi,

I'm not too sure about ultra-80 or debian testing, but
on ultra-5 ( with CS4231 ) and woody, sparc-utils has to be installed
and /etc/default/audioctl has to correctly set. The CS4231
chip-set is not exactly compatible with the Desktop
mixers!

I've been using for a few months, a small GUI app I wrote
and I've just uploaded it to
http://www.acarlab.com/aCL-pub/linux/linux_support.html#SparcAudioCtl

Hope it's useful to some and I'd like to know what
other Sun-sparcs it works on.

Please, also can somwbody tell me what exactly is the
purpose of the 'monitor' channel on the CS4231 chip-set.
All the gain controls just appear to be in series!
