In this file I will try to build a database of cards supported by this
|
||||
driver. I also include the command to use for manual configuration of
|
||||
the card in case your BIOS is not PnP-aware. Of course it is your
|
||||
responsibility to pick up free prot ranges and irq and drq channels.

|

For PnP cards, I also include the vendor_id and serial numbers of
|

cards I have encountered. Underscores in the PnP id mean that there is
|

a large variety of values in those positions.
|
||||
cards I have encountered. Underscores in the PnP id mean that
|
||||
(I believe) there is a large variety of values in those positions,
|
||||
and the code in the audio driver generally masks those bits.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, where available, I have put the URL where you can find the
|
||||
data sheets of the chip.
|
||||
|
||||
To my knowledge, there are the following families of audio cards:
|
||||
|
||||
CS4236B: PnP id 0x35__630e
|
||||
CS4236: PnP id 0x36__630e
|
||||
CS4237: PnP id 0x37__630e
|
||||
* WSS (also called MSS) and clones:
|
||||
these are true full duplex cards, have a very nice architecture and
|
||||
are well documented. Chipsets implementing these functionalities
|
||||
are made from Crystal, Analog Devices, Yamaha, OPTI.
|
||||
|
||||
* SB16 and clones:
|
||||
these cards have a higly asymmetric architecture, and are not very
|
||||
well suited to full duplex operation. Made by Creative, Realtek.
|
||||
There is no documentation on the newer codecs (Vibra16X and ALS100+),
|
||||
so they are not fully working.
|
||||
|
||||
* ESS
|
||||
ESS builds cards that implement a superset of SB16. They are
|
||||
often capable of full duplex, but my driver does not support them
|
||||
other than in full duplex emulation. My fault, since documentation
|
||||
on these cards _is_ available.
|
||||
|
||||
* PCI cards.
|
||||
There are a quite few PCI audio cards around based on a number of
|
||||
different chipsets. Some of them are documented (e.g. S3 Sonic
|
||||
Vibes, Ensoniq ES1370), some are not (e.g. Yamaha YMF724),
|
||||
work is in progress to support such cards. See the notes below.
|
||||
Note that CreativeLabs has recently (fall'97) acquired Ensoniq
|
||||
and the audio division of OPTI, both of which had a PCI audio
|
||||
chipset. I don't know if there are other manufacturers of PCI
|
||||
audio cards.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, some people wrote patches for the following chips:
|
||||
|
||||
AD1816
|
||||
MAD16
|
||||

NOTE: cards based on the 4237, and possibly the 4236 as well,
|
||||
connect the CD to AUX2. When used in MODE1/2 (as this driver
|
||||
does) there is no route in the input mixer from AUX2 to the
|
||||
ADC. So, to record directly from the CD, the only way is
|
||||
to set the input to SOUND_MASK_IMIX.

CS4232: PnP id 0x3242630e
|

Some machines with the cs4235 in non-pnp mode map the codec at 0x530
|
||||
instead of 0x534. For those machines you need an unusual config line

This code _cannot_ work on these cards as it is now, since I

don't think they can use the ISA DMA controller. As there are

no data sheets available for these PCI cards, none of them is

supported at the moment.
