kernel compile problems
I'm running progeny rc1 and, since it didn't configure my sound card
during install, I recompiled my kernel (2.2.18) and included support for
my soundcard (Yamaha OPL3-SA2) through OSS.
After several tries, I finally seem to have gotten all the io settings
right (dma, ioports and interrupts in /proc look like they're all in
order, as does /proc/sound and dmesg shows everything being
recognized/loaded fine) but I still can't get sound working and it also
breaks my network card (3com Etherlink XL Combo 3C900). My first though
was that there was some kind of conflict but I can't find any. Here're
the settings for both cards:
Sound (from /usr/src/linux/.config):
CONFIG_SOUND_OPL3SA2=y
CONFIG_OPL3SA2_CHIPSET=-1
CONFIG_OPL3SA2_BASE=530
CONFIG_OPL3SA2_IRQ=5
CONFIG_OPL3SA2_DMA=0
CONFIG_OPL3SA2_DMA2=1
CONFIG_OPL3SA2_CTRL_BASE=370
CONFIG_OPL3SA2_MPU_BASE=330
CONFIG_OPL3SA2_MPU_IRQ=5
I'd include the settings from /proc but that would require me to install
the new kernel again and break networking :) They looked right, anyway.
Ethernet:
ioports: fcc0-fcff : eth0
interrupts: 9: 28040 XT-PIC eth0
With regard to sound, I've tried running both aumix and gmix, both of
which complain about not being able to access /dev/dsp (how can I make
sure I included /dev/dsp support in the kernel... I couldn't find an
option for it in menuconfig).
As for the network card, ifconfig finds it and running 'dhclient eth0'
returns no errors but still doesn't seem to work. I also tried including
it as a module with no success... I'm trying to connect through a cable
modem, btw.
Any ideas on how I can debug this?
