| |
I have a brand new computer with Intel Advanced/AS (Atlantis) mainboard, and so far I noticed two very annoying problems:
1. The board has built-in CS4232 audio codec. It is initialized by voxware and even plays 16bit sound, but if I abort anything writing to /dev/dsp (for example timidity), I can't play any sound any more, and the following is recorded in syslog: Mar 9 12:40:15 penthouse kernel: Sound: DMA (output) timed out - IRQ/DRQ config error? Mar 9 12:40:52 penthouse last message repeated 8 times Mar 9 12:41:07 penthouse last message repeated 5 times etc.
It doesn't matter what values I specify for IRQ/DMA.
2. The board is Triton chipset based, and I use EIDE bus mastering to improve performance. Under heavy disk load sometimes the disk freezes for a few seconds with a message: Mar 8 17:15:41 penthouse kernel: hda: irq timeout: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest } Mar 8 17:15:41 penthouse kernel: ide0: reset: success
My system info: P133 16M, Intel Advanced/AS motherboard, Quantum Fireball 1280A EIDE drive. Kernels 1.3.68-1.3.72.
I'm using MR-BIOS now, can it cause any troubles (I don't wish to upload another BIOS just to check it. Messing with BIOS on this recovery lacking motherboard can be extremely dangerous)?
Has anyone experienced similar problems and/or know how to solve them?
