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
9If you're using PnP cards, the initialization of PnP is required
10before 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.
14In this document, only the case 1 case is treated.
15
16----------------------------------------------------------------
17* Installation on Red Hat 5.0 Sound Driver
18
19Please use install-rh.sh under RedHat5.0 directory.
20DO NOT USE install.sh below.
21See 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
134Good luck!
