Quote (doobit @ Sep. 29 2005,07:50) | Quote (dare2dreamer @ Sep. 26 2005,15:04) | I got a toshiba 440 CDT here. Added 64 megs of ram, and am planning on converting it over to compact flash sometime soon.
For all the tech toys I play with, I keep coming back to it as the most reliable machine I've ever used. Only thing I had to do was add some modprobe info to bootlocal.sh to get the sound going. |
What driver did you need to modprobe for the sound to work? Thanks! |
To get sound working on the Toshiba 440 CDT, you actually have to remove and reload the driver with options for the appropriate DMA, IRQ, etc. I messed around with the settings in bios and managed to get it working with these lines in my bootlocal.sh:
Code Sample | sudo rmmod ad1848 sudo rmmod opl3 sudo modprobe ad1848 io=0x530 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0 sudo modprobe opl3 io=0x388
|
It throws me one error on startup, which I believe comes from the old driver not working prior to bootlocal running, but it works like a champ.
For the record, I figured all of this out from a former HD install of DSL, where I apt-get updated the sndconfig tool and the newer version was able to spot the card. Once I had it working there, it was simply a matter of sussing out which files sndconfig tweaked in order to get everything working. After that, I tossed them in bootlocal and kissed my HD install goodbye forever.
Email if you need any other help tweaking this little beast. Definitely worth the trouble.
