I have seen this question being asked many times on deja.com etc, but with no response.
I have a Sony Vaio PCG-C1XE PictureBook with a Yamaha YMF-744B PCI sound card which I am trying to get working with Linux. I understand that the YMB-744B is currently only supported with Legacy SB Support as Yamaha will not release docs.
When I manually insert the modules it works fine, but when I do a "modprobe -k sound" I get an error "invalid parameter parm_io".
I am using modutils-2.3.6 on kernel 2.3.28 and this is my conf.modules file
alias char-major-14 sound alias sound sb options sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1
when I remove "alias sound sb" and run "modprobe -k sb" it works ok, but this means auto loading as required by the kernel does not work.
What can I do to get this working?
P.S. is this 8 bit Soundblaster PRO sound the best I can expect for the near future? (That is without shelling out $30 for OSS/Linux)
