Getting sound to work on Dell Dimension XPS R400
I'm very favorably impressed with Debian 2.2r3.
However, I havn't been able to get the built-in sound working on my
Dell Dimension XPS R400. This is supposed to be a Crystal
Semiconductor CS4236. The cs4232 module comments indicate that they
support this chip, but seem to expect it on an ISA pnp board rather
than the PCI bus.
The error I get from modprobe is:
obfuscate:/home/blarson# modprobe cs4232
/lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/misc/cs4232.o: init_module: Device or resource busy
Hint: this error can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/misc/cs4232.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/misc/cs4232.o failed
/lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/misc/cs4232.o: insmod cs4232 failed
The /proc/pci listing for the sound:
Bus 0, device 11, function 0:
Multimedia audio controller: Cirrus Logic Unknown device (rev 1).
Vendor id=1013. Device id=6001.
Medium devsel. IRQ 9. Master Capable. Latency=64. Min Gnt=4.Max Lat=24
.
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xf4100000 [0xf4100000].
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xf4000000 [0xf4000000].
IRQ 9 is a shared interupt, with the USB controller and both ethernet
boards on it as well. (Is there any way to control PCI interrupt
assignment -- this seems sub-optimal. My ethernet gets a lot more
traffic than my SCSI tape drive.)
