Questions,sound, aureal, using MDK 9.0

[SuperRobotic]

I was hoping somebody here may be able to help.

I have Turtle Beach Montego 2 sound card, which runs on the aureal drivers. So i go and find the cvs at http://sourceforge.net/projects/aureal. So I dl it, untar it to its own directory in my home directory.
Then i try to make install it.

make install-all

this is the error I get

make: /sbin/lspci: Command not found
Ö@Ö@make: /sbin/lspci: Command not found
Ö@Ö@make: /sbin/lspci: Command not found
Ö@Ö@Makefile:122: No Aureal Vortex soundcard detected!
Makefile:123: *** See the "Troubleshooting" of the README file for help.  Stop.

ok. So in the readme file it says if this happens use the soundcard number in the make command. Turtle Beach Montego 2 is listed in the readme file as au8830. So i use that.

make au8830 install-all

then some errors pop up.

sorry about the long error code, i didnt know how much would be needed, i also didnt post the rest cause it goes on for much longer.

from looking at the errors I am guessing the problem is I need the kernel source installed ?? So where exactly do i get the kernel source from. Doing a uname -r, I get that I am using the 2.4.19-16mdk kernel.

So i was wondering if from the errors, is the kernel source the only problem or could I there be other problems ???



thanks for any help, if you need me to clarify anything let me know

[stryder144]

You should be able to find the source code for the linux kernel on the Mandy cd. Make sure you use Mandy's version (they may have added certain patches and what not) and not the vanilla version that you can find at kernel.org. This will save you some hair in the long run. I'm not totally certain, but, I believe that most of your problems will go away once you install the kernel source. Can anyone else (rick420?) provide the utility name that he should use to find the kernel source code (I've packed all my Linux stuff up so I don't have any access to any real oses until May) and install it. Does the Mandy Control Center do that (besides kpackage)?

Cheers

hello,
it looks like stryder hit the nail on the head - the kernel sources are missing, look over your CDs and install what has the name kernel-souce or perhaps kernel headers

[SuperRobotic]

thanks guys I thought thats what it might be, but wanted to make sure


anyways I cant seem to find the kernel source.

I go to mandrake control center and to install software, and I type in kernel source in the search field and nothing comes up.

I was just wondering, maybe its already installed on my comp and I just dont know where to find it???

I looked around the mandrake site and couldnt see anywhere to dl it from, i guess I can look around the cds, if i figure out how to do that ..

this may sound stupid but how exactly do i look around to see whats On the cd ??


thanks again for your help

[stryder144]

Try this download site for the kernel source that you need.

Cheers

[SuperRobotic]

thanks for your help

I downloaded it and insatlled it

then I tried to install the driver again

and this what i got, it looks like it installed ok, but i still have no sound

do i have to configure the sound or something somewhere ???


thanks again for your help

[pbharris]

hello,
make sure you run depmod -a and then modprobe sound - also make sure the volume is turned up

[SuperRobotic]

i just did both of those and still no sound

i been using xmms to test if the sound works, i have the volume on that and my speakers up


thanks for your help

[pbharris]

humms...

type /sbin/lsmod and see if the modules are loaded. next find a wav or au file and type cat /usr/share/sounds/pop.wav > /dev/dsp and see if you hear anything,, the file i posted is of course just an example.

also - lets check permisions
please do a ls -l /dev/dsp and see if you can use it...

[SuperRobotic]

hmm this is kind of frustrating since it doesnt seem to be working

ok with a /sbin/lsmod this is what i get

i hate when stuff doesnt want to work for me...

anyways thank you both for taking the time to help me, I would give you guys hugs if i could
