High Definition Audio AC 97

Bei Problemen mit Intels High Definition Audio kann folgendes helfen (SuSE10.2):

Ob ein HDA-Chip am Werk sei kann in der Textkonsole mit:

lspci 

überprüft werden:

00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)

Was kann ich unternehmen?:

1. Neuere Alsa-Pakete installieren: Neuere Alsa-Pakete installieren:

Paket "Driver" runterladen von: http://www.alsa-project.org/

entpacken (kann direkt z.B. im Konqueror/KDE-Desktop erfolgen), Textkonsole / Shell öffnen, dann folgende Befehle ausführen:

./configure
make
(als root) checkinstall
rpm -Uhv /usr/src/packages/RPMS/i386/alsa-driver-1.0.14rc3-1.i386.rpm
ldconfig
depmod -a

SYSTEM Neustart

Optional können die übersetzten Pakete auch einfach mit YaST installiert werden.

Bemerkung: Für die Erstellung von dem RPM-Paket wird Paket "checkinstall" benötigt, evtl. mit YaST nachinstallieren.

2. Soundkarte statt mit YaST , mit "alsaconfig" in der Textkonsole konfigurieren.

3. Die Model-Einstellungen in:

/etc/modprobe.d/sound

die normalerweise so aussehen:

alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel model=?????

durch andere ersetzen. Weitere Model-Optionen können aus dem:

/usr/src/linux-2.6.18.2-34/Documentation/sound/alsa/ALSA-Configuration.txt

entnommen werden.

Zitat daraus:

"Abschnitt HDA (INTEL ICH 6/7/8)
Module snd-hda-intel
Module for Intel HD Audio (ICH6, ICH6M, ESB2, ICH7, ICH8),

model	- force the model name
position_fix - Fix DMA pointer (0 = auto, 1 = none, 2 = POSBUF, 3 = FIFO size)
single_cmd  - Use single immediate commands to communicate with
codecs (for debugging only)
This module supports one card and autoprobe.
Each codec may have a model table for different configurations.
If your machine isn't listed there, the default (usually minimal)
configuration is set up.  You can pass "model=<name>" option to
specify a certain model in such a case.  There are different
models depending on the codec chip.

If the default configuration doesn't work and one of the above matches with your device, report 
it together with the PCI subsystem ID (output of "lspci    -nv") to ALSA BTS or alsa-devel ML (see the section "Links and Addresses").
Note 2: If you get click noises on output, try the module option
position_fix=1 or 2.  position_fix=1 will use the SD_LPIB
register value without FIFO size correction as the current
DMA pointer.  position_fix=2 will make the driver to use
the position buffer instead of reading SD_LPIB register.
(Usually SD_LPLIB register is more accurate than the
position buffer.)
NB: If you get many "azx_get_response timeout" messages at
loading, it's likely a problem of interrupts (e.g. ACPI irq
routing).  Try to boot with options like "pci=noacpi".  Also, you
can try "single_cmd=1" module option.  This will switch the
communication method between HDA controller and codecs to the
single immediate commands instead of CORB/RIRB.  Basically, the
single command mode is provided only for BIOS, and you won't get
unsolicited events, too.  But, at least, this works independently
from the irq.  Remember this is a last resort, and should be
avoided as much as possible...
The power-management is supported."

Daraus entnommen kann es z.B. so aussehen:

/etc/modprobe.d/sound

alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel model=3stack

Bei weiteren Problemen kann noch die Option:

position_fix=1

hinzugefügt werden, dabei kann der Wert 0, 1, 2 oder 3 betragen.

Die Optionszeile könnte dann so aussehen:

options snd-hda-intel model=3stack position_fix=1

Nach der änderung ALSA zuerst stoppen, dann neu starten:

rcalsasound stop
rcalsasound start

Bei KDE evtl. Den Sound-Mixer neu starten:

-> Alt+F2
-> kmix

Die Optionen für i810 (Modul "i810_audio und snd-intel8x0")sind:

motherboard has these devices, use the ns558 or snd-mpu401
modules, respectively.

Viel Spass beim ausprobieren!

Wichtiger Hinweis zur Nutzung des Digitalausgangs/Digitaleingangs bei NVIDIA CK804 / NForce4 Soundchipanteil / Realtek ALC850 Chipsätzen

Aufgrund eines etwas seltsamen Hardwaredesigns lassen sich die digitalen Ein/Ausgabeports dieser Chipsätze nicht so aktivieren wie es zu erwarten wäre. Zum aktivieren muss entgegen jeglicher Logik der entsprechende IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA Ausgangsregler in kmix/gamix/alsamixer auf 0 runtergeregelt werden damit diese Ports als Ausgänge aktiviert sind.Laut dem Wiki des Alsa-Projects liegt dies daran, daß dieser Soundchip einfach keine Regelung durch ALSA zulässt und die Lautstärke somit über den angeschlossenen Verstärker bzw. das angeschlossene Aufnahmegerät geregelt werden muss.
