Hi Mark
That's a good point, I'll try that then: checking first the status of the existing PC CS4231 then I'll check the existing driver code and see how things look. I'm trying to get my hands on a real SS-5 to dispell some doubts as well.
Thank you for your time once again.
Best regards,
Seb.

Hi Seb,
I'm not really sure of the status of the PC CS4231 driver in Linux and/or QEMU, so a
good place to start would be to test it with the latest QEMU. If that works (and it
is shown that the SS-5 and PC drivers in the kernel can be combined), then yes, in
theory it should be possible to make use of some of the existing code.
ATB,
