Escrito originalmente por neogaka SI, fui al centro de control, pero no esta detectada La tarjeta es Sound Blaster Awe 64 Value, es una veterana
Soporte para esa targeta si hay en el kernel, pero el módulo no se como se llama, igualmente mirate haber si esto que sale en la documentación del kernel te sirve....
Installing and using Creative AWE midi sound under Linux.
This documentation is devoted to the Creative Sound Blaster AWE32, AWE64 and
SB32.
1) Make sure you have an ORIGINAL Creative SB32, AWE32 or AWE64 card. This
is important, because the driver works only with real Creative cards.
2) The first thing you need to do is re-compile your kernel with support for
your sound card. Run your favourite tool to configure the kernel and when
you get to the "Sound" menu you should enable support for the following:
Sound card support,
OSS sound modules,
100% Sound Blaster compatibles (SB16/32/64, ESS, Jazz16) support,
AWE32 synth
If your card is "Plug and Play" you will also need to enable these two
options, found under the "Plug and Play configuration" menu:
Plug and Play support
ISA Plug and Play support
Now compile and install the kernel in normal fashion. If you don't know
how to do this you can find instructions for this in the README file
located in the root directory of the kernel source.
3) Before you can start playing midi files you will have to load a sound
bank file. The utility needed for doing this is called "sfxload", and it
is one of the utilities found in a package called "awesfx". If this
package is not available in your distribution you can download the AWE
snapshot from Creative Labs Open Source website:
http://www.opensource.creative.com/snapshot.html
Once you have unpacked the AWE snapshot you will see a "awesfx"
directory. Follow the instructions in awesfx/docs/INSTALL to install the
utilities in this package. After doing this, sfxload should be installed
as:
/usr/local/bin/sfxload
To enable AWE general midi synthesis you should also get the sound bank
file for general midi from:
http://members.xoom.com/yar/synthgm.sbk.gz
Copy it to a directory of your choice, and unpack it there.
4) Edit /etc/modules.conf, and insert the following lines at the end of the
file:
alias sound-slot-0 sb
alias sound-service-0-1 awe_wave
post-install awe_wave /usr/local/bin/sfxload PATH_TO_SOUND_BANK_FILE
You will of course have to change "PATH_TO_SOUND_BANK_FILE" to the full
path of of the sound bank file. That will enable the Sound Blaster and AWE
wave synthesis. To play midi files you should get one of these programs if
you don't already have them:
Playmidi:
http://playmidi.openprojects.net
AWEMidi Player (drvmidi) Included in the previously mentioned AWE
snapshot.
You will probably have to pass the "-e" switch to playmidi to have it use
your midi device. drvmidi should work without switches.
If something goes wrong please e-mail me. All comments and suggestions are
welcome.
