1 | ================================================================ |
2 | INSTALLATION OF AWE32 SOUND DRIVER FOR LINUX | |
3 | Takashi Iwai <iwai@ww.uni-erlangen.de> | |
4 | ================================================================ | |

6 | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | |
7 | * Attention to SB-PnP Card Users | |
8 | ||
9 | If you're using PnP cards, the initialization of PnP is required | |
10 | before loading this driver. You have now three options: | |
11 | 1. Use isapnptools. | |
12 | 2. Use in-kernel isapnp support. | |
13 | 3. Initialize PnP on DOS/Windows, then boot linux by loadlin. | |
14 | In this document, only the case 1 case is treated. | |
15 | ||
16 | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | |
17 | * Installation on Red Hat 5.0 Sound Driver | |
18 | ||
19 | Please use install-rh.sh under RedHat5.0 directory. | |
20 | DO NOT USE install.sh below. | |
21 | See INSTALL.RH for more details. | |
22 | ||
23 | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | |
24 | * Installation/Update by Shell Script | |
25 | ||
26 | 1. Become root | |
27 | ||
28 | % su | |
29 | ||
30 | 2. If you have never configured the kernel tree yet, run make config | |
31 | once (to make dependencies and symlinks). | |
32 | ||
33 | # cd /usr/src/linux | |
34 | # make xconfig | |
35 | ||
36 | 3. Run install.sh script | |
37 | ||
38 | # sh ./install.sh | |
39 | ||
40 | 4. Configure your kernel | |
41 | ||
42 | (for Linux 2.[01].x user) | |
43 | # cd /usr/src/linux | |
44 | # make xconfig (or make menuconfig) | |
45 | ||
46 | (for Linux 1.2.x user) | |
47 | # cd /usr/src/linux | |
48 | # make config | |
49 | ||
50 | Answer YES to both "lowlevel drivers" and "AWE32 wave synth" items | |
51 | in Sound menu. ("lowlevel drivers" will appear only in 2.x | |
52 | kernel.) | |
53 | ||
54 | 5. Make your kernel (and modules), and install them as usual. | |
55 | ||
56 | 5a. make kernel image | |
57 | # make zImage | |
58 | ||
59 | 5b. make modules and install them | |
60 | # make modules && make modules_install | |
61 | ||
62 | 5c. If you're using lilo, copy the kernel image and run lilo. | |
63 | Otherwise, copy the kernel image to suitable directory or | |
64 | media for your system. | |
65 | ||
66 | 6. Reboot the kernel if necessary. | |
67 | - If you updated only the modules, you don't have to reboot | |
68 | the system. Just remove the old sound modules here. | |
69 | in | |
70 | # rmmod sound.o (linux-2.0 or OSS/Free) | |
71 | # rmmod awe_wave.o (linux-2.1) | |
72 | ||
73 | 7. If your AWE card is a PnP and not initialized yet, you'll have to | |
74 | do it by isapnp tools. Otherwise, skip to 8. | |
75 | ||
76 | This section described only a brief explanation. For more | |
77 | details, please see the AWE64-Mini-HOWTO or isapnp tools FAQ. | |
78 | ||
79 | 7a. If you have no isapnp.conf file, generate it by pnpdump. | |
80 | Otherwise, skip to 7d. | |
81 | # pnpdump > /etc/isapnp.conf | |
82 | ||
83 | 7b. Edit isapnp.conf file. Comment out the appropriate | |
84 | lines containing desirable I/O ports, DMA and IRQs. | |
85 | Don't forget to enable (ACT Y) line. | |
86 | ||
87 | 7c. Add two i/o ports (0xA20 and 0xE20) in WaveTable part. | |
88 | ex) | |
89 | (CONFIGURE CTL0048/58128 (LD 2 | |
90 | # ANSI string -->WaveTable<-- | |
91 | (IO 0 (BASE 0x0620)) | |
92 | (IO 1 (BASE 0x0A20)) | |
93 | (IO 2 (BASE 0x0E20)) | |
94 | (ACT Y) | |
95 | )) | |
96 | ||
97 | 7d. Load the config file. | |
98 | CAUTION: This will reset all PnP cards! | |
99 | ||
100 | # isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf | |
101 | ||
102 | 8. Load the sound module (if you configured it as a module): | |
103 | ||
104 | for 2.0 kernel or OSS/Free monolithic module: | |
105 | ||
106 | # modprobe sound.o | |
107 | ||
108 | for 2.1 kernel: | |
109 | ||
110 | # modprobe sound | |
111 | # insmod uart401 | |
112 | # insmod sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330 | |
113 | (These values depend on your settings.) | |
114 | # insmod awe_wave | |
115 | (Be sure to load awe_wave after sb!) | |
116 | ||
117 | See Documentation/sound/oss/AWE32 for | |
118 | more details. | |
119 | ||
120 | 9. (only for obsolete systems) If you don't have /dev/sequencer | |
121 | device file, make it according to Readme.linux file on | |
122 | /usr/src/linux/drivers/sound. (Run a shell script included in | |
123 | that file). <-- This file no longer exists in the recent kernels! | |
124 | ||
125 | 10. OK, load your own soundfont file, and enjoy MIDI! | |
126 | ||
127 | % sfxload synthgm.sbk | |
128 | % drvmidi foo.mid | |
129 | ||
130 | 11. For more advanced use (eg. dynamic loading, virtual bank and | |
131 | etc.), please read the awedrv FAQ or the instructions in awesfx | |
132 | and awemidi packages. | |
133 | ||
134 | Good luck! |
