| I am using a run-of-the-mill desktop PC, to which I desired to add-in my ol' Echo Digital Audio Corporation "Mia" card for the purpose of making recordings for librivox.org It was a bit of a trial (took 2 weeks to find someone to hold my hand) but eventually, I did get it working using the ALSA driver. Below, I have pasted the responce that I wrote to the ALSA-users mailing list, which hopefully has enough detail to help you get the Mia working yourself if you are looking for help! Best of luck! -- For anyone following along, this issue is now resolved, thanks to the #ubuntu irc network and the most helpful 'crimsun'... here, in summary, are (to the best of my reconstructive abilities) the steps I took to get ALSA working with my Echo Mia card: NOTE: for the record, this is under Ubuntu 5.10, fully patched (a Debian variant) export CC=gcc-3.4 sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) NOTE: I had thought installing the 'build-essentials' package was sufficient, but adding the header files package resolved some issues too. cd alsa-driver-1.0.11rc3 make clean make mrproper ./configure --with-cards=intel8x0,mia --with-oss=yes --with-sequencer=yes make sudo make install depmod -e sudo invoke-rc.d alsa force-unload sudo modprobe -r snd-seq-device snd-rawmidi snd-mpu401-uart snd-mpu401 sudo modprobe snd-mia NOTE: despite getting errors at this point, I decided to reboot, thinking that an active "nobody" session was using snd-seq-device, and while booting the Ubuntu splash screen showed: alsa setting up card 0 alsa setting up card 1 alsa starting After some tweaking levels and settings with alsamixer, everything seems to be in proper working order now! Hopefully this will be useful to someone in the future, since it would seem there is nobody currently on the list using this card/distribution. ---- CategoryHardware |
