Multimedia :: Got sound working on Toshiba laptop

Yes 10st, you just need to place this line in your /opt/bootlocal.sh.
modprobe opl3sa2 io=0x370 mss_io=0x530 mpu_io=0x330 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0, then save it. If you are using the bootable cd, make sure to backup your settings to a thumb drive or some other disk partition. If its a hard drive install it should work on reboot. You don't know how hard I looked for this very information about a year ago, and I found here in these forums.

Thanks, that worked for my laptop too :-)

Thanks MultiChill and caulktel

I have a toshiba portege 7000ct and uses an opl3sa3 but opl3sa2 module works fine. ive been using wss_io i didnt know mss_io is the correct one. darn! i was using dsl since day 1.. and i've only made this soundcard work today..

i just recently got DSL working on my toshiba laptop and i must thank you guys for being really helpfull it seems on this forum.

i did that whole command "modprobe opl3sa2 yada yada yada" and it worked wonderfully. then i went and edited my bootlocal.sh with said command and on boot up i get an error that says

/lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/sound/sound.o: create_module: Operation not Permitted
/lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/sound/sound.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/sound/sound.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/sound/sound.o: insmod opl3sa2 failed

did i do something wrong when editing the bootlocal.sh

also i am running DSL on a toshiba satellite 220cds with 133mhz with 48 megs of ram and a 3 gig HDD

any help will be great!

Thanks

Thanks Multichill, got sound going on my Toshiba Sat Pro 480CDT.

And to play MP3 through X, enable the MP3 plug-in in Xmms

Thanks guys!
