- Support for the OPTi 82C931 chip
- --------------------------------
- Note: parts of this README file apply also to other
- cards that use the mad16 driver.
- Some items in this README file are based on features
- added to the sound driver after Linux-2.1.91 was out.
- By the time of writing this I do not know which official
- kernel release will include these features.
- Please do not report inconsistencies on older Linux
- kernels.
- The OPTi 82C931 is supported in its non-PnP mode.
- Usually you do not need to set jumpers, etc. The sound driver
- will check the card status and if it is required it will
- force the card into a mode in which it can be programmed.
- If you have another OS installed on your computer it is recommended
- that Linux and the other OS use the same resources.
- Also, it is recommended that resources specified in /etc/modules.conf
- and resources specified in /etc/isapnp.conf agree.
- Compiling the sound driver
- --------------------------
- I highly recommend that you build a modularized sound driver.
- This document does not cover a sound-driver which is built in
- the kernel.
- Sound card support should be enabled as a module (chose m).
- Answer 'm' for these items:
- Generic OPL2/OPL3 FM synthesizer support (CONFIG_SOUND_ADLIB)
- Microsoft Sound System support (CONFIG_SOUND_MSS)
- Support for OPTi MAD16 and/or Mozart based cards (CONFIG_SOUND_MAD16)
- FM synthesizer (YM3812/OPL-3) support (CONFIG_SOUND_YM3812)
- The configuration menu may ask for addresses, IRQ lines or DMA
- channels. If the card is used as a module the module loading
- options will override these values.
- For the OPTi 931 you can answer 'n' to:
- Support MIDI in older MAD16 based cards (requires SB) (CONFIG_SOUND_MAD16_OLDCARD)
- If you do need MIDI support in a Mozart or C928 based card you
- need to answer 'm' to the above question. In that case you will
- also need to answer 'm' to:
- '100% Sound Blaster compatibles (SB16/32/64, ESS, Jazz16) support' (CONFIG_SOUND_SB)
- Go on and compile your kernel and modules. Install the modules. Run depmod -a.
- Using isapnptools
- -----------------
- In most systems with a PnP BIOS you do not need to use isapnp. The
- initialization provided by the BIOS is sufficient for the driver
- to pick up the card and continue initialization.
- If that fails, or if you have other PnP cards, you need to use isapnp
- to initialize the card.
- This was tested with isapnptools-1.11 but I recommend that you use
- isapnptools-1.13 (or newer). Run pnpdump to dump the information
- about your PnP cards. Then edit the resulting file and select
- the options of your choice. This file is normally installed as
- /etc/isapnp.conf.
- The driver has one limitation with respect to I/O port resources:
- IO3 base must be 0x0E0C. Although isapnp allows other ports, this
- address is hard-coded into the driver.
- Using kmod and autoloading the sound driver
- -------------------------------------------
- Comment: as of linux-2.1.90 kmod is replacing kerneld.
- The config file '/etc/modules.conf' is used as before.
- This is the sound part of my /etc/modules.conf file.
- Following that I will explain each line.
- alias mixer0 mad16
- alias audio0 mad16
- alias midi0 mad16
- alias synth0 opl3
- options sb mad16=1
- options mad16 irq=10 dma=0 dma16=1 io=0x530 joystick=1 cdtype=0
- options opl3 io=0x388
- post-install mad16 /sbin/ad1848_mixer_reroute 14 8 15 3 16 6
- If you have an MPU daughtercard or onboard MPU you will want to add to the
- "options mad16" line - eg
- options mad16 irq=5 dma=0 dma16=3 io=0x530 mpu_io=0x330 mpu_irq=9
- To set the I/O and IRQ of the MPU.
- Explain:
- alias mixer0 mad16
- alias audio0 mad16
- alias midi0 mad16
- alias synth0 opl3
- When any sound device is opened the kernel requests auto-loading
- of char-major-14. There is a built-in alias that translates this
- request to loading the main sound module.
- The sound module in its turn will request loading of a sub-driver
- for mixer, audio, midi or synthesizer device. The first 3 are
- supported by the mad16 driver. The synth device is supported
- by the opl3 driver.
- There is currently no way to autoload the sound device driver
- if more than one card is installed.
- options sb mad16=1
- This is left for historical reasons. If you enable the
- config option 'Support MIDI in older MAD16 based cards (requires SB)'
- or if you use an older mad16 driver it will force loading of the
- SoundBlaster driver. This option tells the SB driver not to look
- for a SB card but to wait for the mad16 driver.
- options mad16 irq=10 dma=0 dma16=1 io=0x530 joystick=1 cdtype=0
- options opl3 io=0x388
- post-install mad16 /sbin/ad1848_mixer_reroute 14 8 15 3 16 6
- This sets resources and options for the mad16 and opl3 drivers.
- I use two DMA channels (only one is required) to enable full duplex.
- joystick=1 enables the joystick port. cdtype=0 disables the cd port.
- You can also set mpu_io and mpu_irq in the mad16 options for the
- uart401 driver.
- This tells modprobe to run /sbin/ad1848_mixer_reroute after
- mad16 is successfully loaded and initialized. The source
- for ad1848_mixer_reroute is appended to the end of this readme
- file. It is impossible for the sound driver to know the actual
- connections to the mixer. The 3 inputs intended for cd, synth
- and line-in are mapped to the generic inputs line1, line2 and
- line3. This program reroutes these mixer channels to their
- right names (note the right mapping depends on the actual sound
- card that you use).
- The numeric parameters mean:
- 14=line1 8=cd - reroute line1 to the CD input.
- 15=line2 3=synth - reroute line2 to the synthesizer input.
- 16=line3 6=line - reroute line3 to the line input.
- For reference on other input names look at the file
- /usr/include/linux/soundcard.h.
- Using a joystick
- -----------------
- You must enable a joystick in the mad16 options. (also
- in /etc/isapnp.conf if you use it).
- Tested with regular analog joysticks.
- A CDROM drive connected to the sound card
- -----------------------------------------
- The 82C931 chip has support only for secondary ATAPI cdrom.
- (cdtype=8). Loading the mad16 driver resets the C931 chip
- and if a cdrom was already mounted it may cause a complete
- system hang. Do not use the sound card if you have an alternative.
- If you do use the sound card it is important that you load
- the mad16 driver (use "modprobe mad16" to prevent auto-unloading)
- before the cdrom is accessed the first time.
- Using the sound driver built-in to the kernel may help here, but...
- Most new systems have a PnP BIOS and also two IDE controllers.
- The IDE controller on the sound card may be needed only on older
- systems (which have only one IDE controller) but these systems
- also do not have a PnP BIOS - requiring isapnptools and a modularized
- driver.
- Known problems
- --------------
- 1. See the section on "A CDROM drive connected to the sound card".
- 2. On my system the codec cannot capture companded sound samples.
- (eg., recording from /dev/audio). When any companded capture is
- requested I get stereo-16 bit samples instead. Playback of
- companded samples works well. Apparently this problem is not common
- to all C931 based cards. I do not know how to identify cards that
- have this problem.
