Hello *,
recently I upgraded my kernel from 2.6.12 to 2.6.15 and encountered some
problems:
- ACPI gets activated though my machine (a Dell Latitude CS 400 XT with
a Pentium II processor) has only APM. It was easy to work around this
problem by adding the kernel parameter "acpi=off". Nevertheless this
seems to be kernel bug introduced somewhere between 2.6.12 and 2.6.15.
- When upgrading the kernel, I was forced to replace hotplug by udev and
now /dev/dsp is gone. First I found that the sound driver nm256_audio
has disappeared and so I replaced the corresponding entry in
/etc/modules by snd_nm256 which seems to replace nm256_audio and causes
udev to create the files
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 0 Mar 5 07:52 controlC0
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 24 Mar 5 07:52 pcmC0D0c
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 16 Mar 5 07:52 pcmC0D0p
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 33 Mar 5 07:51 timer
in /dev/snd and the files
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 Mar 5 08:54 NM256ZX -> card0
dr-xr-xr-x 5 root root 0 Mar 5 08:54 card0
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 5 08:54 pcm
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 5 08:54 timers
in /proc/asound. But still no /dev/dsp! What is going wrong here? Am I
using the wrong driver? Here is what lspci tells me:
000:01:00.1 Multimedia audio controller: Neomagic Corporation NM2360
[MagicMedia 256ZX Audio]
Thank you for hints,
Michael
