| |
I saw AC's port about the NM256av being supported in the new 2.2.13pre11 kernel. So i downloaded it and tried it out. Upon reboot it completely lockedup solid. not even the Magic-Key worked! I'm currently inserting connects into the driver to try and find to location at which it locks up at. The biggest problem is the fact that whomever wrote it wants to stay anonymous( great, NOW who do i harass?!) 8-P. I have -0- experience in fixing broken drivers so if anyone can give me pointers or help i'd appreciate it. Just let me know exactly what ou need from my machine and ill email it.
I have been using the ad1848 driver on the chip for a long time. I have allways gotten an irq conflict no matter how i setup the card. It also fails completely on records and on APM resume it looses the dma controll. I'm willing to try patches to the sound code if anyone has any they want tried on the dell inspiron laptops.
Oh yeah, one more thing. i've cloned the irq/port/dma settings from the 98 install on another partition. 98 works perfectly with it so i know i don't have busted hardware or irq/port/dma conflicts. 8-P
