For years, I have been trying to get sound working on Compaq Armadas: 73xx, 78xx, 7400, & 7800. Thanks to some help I got here months ago, I got it going without ALSA; I guess that's OSS. I've tried to start using ALSA and now I've gotten sound broken again. This is on a 7400 running Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.8. I think it is a problem of just not knowing how to configure ALSA. Before ALSA, "sb irq=5 io=0x220 dma=1" in /etc/modules gave me working sound. With ALSA, snd-es18xx irq=5 io=0x220 dma=1 and snd-sb16 irq=5 io=0x220 dma=1 result in "failure to detect" at boot.
If someone has ALSA working on a similair Armada, please tell me how you have it configured. -- Willie, ONWARD! Through the fog!
