pb with sound

[Willy <wca...@no...>]

Hi,

I have a pb with the 2.4.22 kernel. Each time i active the sound server =
of kde with modules dmasound-core and dmasound-paula loaded, my amiga =
4000 freeze.Is there a way to solve this and have the amiga sound system =
working properly ?

Willy.

DMA Sound driver in APUS kernels >2.4.18 is broken. I tried to find the
bug, but I gave up after a few days last holidays...

what is the kernel debug output pointing too? Is this one of the IRQ changes made by the x86 native
kernel that comes back to bite us? Does sound work in the 2.6.x ?

I don't know. I knew only that on self conpiled kernels above 2.4.18 to
2.4.23 dmasound crashed kernel on my APUS box. I haven't tried the 2.6.x
kernel yet, but I don't use APUS box anymore (I've bought PegasosII). If I
have some free time I will try to do some checks on different kernel
configuration.

I try to compile the 2.6.4 kernel but i meet this pb:

make[1]: `arch/ppc/kernel/asm-offsets.s' est =E0 jour.
*** 2.6 kernels no longer buildcorrectly with old versions of binutils.
*** Please upgrade your binutils to 2.12.1 or newer

I use the debian woody 3.0r2 with binutils v2.12.90.0.1-4 so it should wo=
rk=20
(it works on a i386 machine).

What can i do ?

This is a ppc specific requirement.

You might want to ask on the debian-powerpc mailing list, if someone has 
an updated package.

Sorry I'm not much help.

I think i will stay in 2.4.22 because it appears that kernel 2.6 doesn't 
support the CyberstornPPC SCSI controler and i need it.

Thanks,
