Hello all, I made some experiments but I'm stuck. Here's the situation:
I have an eCS 2.1 UK edition, which is working really nice (even if Firefox is a little less performing and stable than the Windows version - but I greatly praise the developers of the OS/2 version!).
I would like to use this machine also for audio editing, other than porting software (in fact, I'd like to try and port Audacity), but currently I have no sound at all. The uniinfo test program reports, for ALSA helper:
00-00: ALC662 rev1 Analog : ALC662 rev1 Analog
: playback 1
: capture 1
00-01: ALC662 rev1 Digital : ALC662 rev1 Digital
: playback 1
: capture 1
OSS32_Initialize: SUCCESS. Cards=1
But, trying to set the output volume:
U16: MixerSetVolume: OSS16_MixSetVolume failed!!
This is the uniaud.dll card info:
id: Intel
driver: HDA-Intel
name: HDA Intel
longname: HDA Intel at 0xfeaf8000 irq 16
mixer: Realtek ALC662 rev1
componenets: HDA:10ec0662,18493662,00100101
So it's an HDA audio card with ALC662 mixer. I'm using the latest ACPI on a dual core Intel CPU, ASRock motherboard.
I tried to take a look into the compatibility grid from Netlabs, but even trying multiple versions of Uniaud, I still can't get no sound. This is becoming sad... My eCS machine is way faster than the WinXP laptop I'm using for these works (plus, I love WPS).
Of course one solution would be disabling the onboard audio card and getting something else on a PCI slot, but I'd prefer not to add cards if unnecessary.
I hope someone will point me in the right direction, because I'm currently stuck. Thanks in advance!
