According to
http://www.rme-audio.com/english/linux/alsa.htm
Hammerfall is supported in Alsa. Odd.
I'd not be surprised if sndconfig (which is for pretty much obsolescent soundcards) couldn't handle it.
If we're talking (as I'm begining to suspect) about a Hard Drive install, you should run
alsa_init
But, in the meantime, please do post your lspci -v output.
I did:
lspci -v > pcifile
at root
and then
cat pcifile
it did show info, but I thought it would create a txt-file. where can I find it?
it shows this text about the RME:
(03:00.0 Multimedia audio controller: Xilinx Corporation RME Hammerfall DSP (rev0b)
Flags: stepping, medium devsel, IRQ3
Memory at 20800000 (32 bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64k]
Is that useful?
THanks a lot for your help so far! I am sure I will start making some music on Linux one day :lol:
Oh... I am running from CD-rom and didn't do an installation (need to clean up the junk on my harddrives etc..)
To find the whole file (what you've posted doesn't mean a lot to me, but, then, I'm sure the whole lot will to someone) do this:
su
updatedb
locate pcifile
You can then pop up pdifile in (say) gvim:
gvim pdifile
left mouse click and drag to highlight the lot, move the cursor to one of these boxes and (depending on 3 button or 2 button mouse) either middle button click or both-buttons-at-once click.
pcifile IS the .txt file :-) in Linux (and Unix in general) the file names don't have to end in a certain way to be a certain type of file (even tough they often do)Quote:

Well, at least the card is detected.
Have you tried sound with headphones, I remember reading about some trouble with digital speakers if you'd happen to have such.
According to:
http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc...dor-RME#matrix
all but "Hammerfall DSP MADI" are supported by alsa.
PS: the pcifile was created in the directory where you ran the command.
Might be some other hardware that gets detected as the audio device.
The full output of "lspci -v" (pcifile) will show us if that is the case.
both partitions on my Sony laptop are of NTFS. I couldn't copy the pcifile to the second partition... I tried my desktop, couldn't copy the file either even on my fat32 partition. I don't know why. Anyway, my desktop has a floppy-disk so I copied it on that one (my laptop doesn't have a floppy disk by the way, so I am out of luck on that box...). so here's the pcifile:

Hmm, looks like there is another audio device present:
What modules are loaded ?Quote:

(do "lsmod > modules.txt" for instance)
it's a non-supported Yamaha SW1000xg
I'm not sure but I suppose it could still make the auto-detect fail.Quote:
