Applications / Re: AcpiDaemon start

« on: January 28, 2024, 11:43:06 am »

Hmm...always had it in CONFIG.SYS, never tried in startup.cmd, but I am not experiencing the sort of issues you are seeing.

I understand that these are synchronization errors between different processes. They are not always manifested and only on certain hardware.

Applications / AcpiDaemon start

« on: January 26, 2024, 11:56:23 pm »

I have clarified an interesting pattern.
After moving acpidaemon in Startup.cmd

Code: [Select]

detach acpidaemon.exe, the system has never been hanging when loading.
At the same time, when the demon started in the config - at the first launch of Villo in 80% of cases, during a reboot of another 10%.
Also, loading without detection of the mouse ceased to occur (USB start error).
Such errors at starting regularly occurred. The system is loaded, but the USB does not function.

I use mainly OS4 core.

I understood the reason and solved the problem of unstable IOMEGA ZIP 100.
It's all about an unsuccessful design. Magnetic powder flies from the disk to the printed circuit board and forms random connections.
In my case, it helped to remove dust from the printed circuit board of the device.
Unfortunately, I admit that in some cases, random compounds can cause damage to electronic components or the logic of the drive and physical damage of disks.

I do not have a 14.204 kernel and I do not know where to get it from. But I can say that on the 14.203 kernel, I have no problems with neither USBAUDIO.SYS nor USBAUD2.SYS. I have USB audio devices of both types but of course, I only have one of each type.

There are problems with any audio driver if the WPS comes into play. If I play a sound via UNIAUD and access a USB drive, UNIAUD will immediately stop playing. For USB the situation is better in that it will not stop, but a hiccup can still be heard.
WPS is such a lousy piece of SW that it is beyond hope that it will ever become reliable. I have had many,many,many desktop freezes where the only cure was to hit the reset button and often enough, to completely turn off the PC.

USBXHCD.SYS has known problems with isochronous transfers. There is nothing that I can do about it. And it should be plain obvious that a trap in USBXHCD.SYS needs to be fixed in USBXHCD.SYS and nowhere else, regardless of if USB client drivers (like USBAUDIO.SYS / USBAUD2.SYS) are badly written or not. You should not accept that as an excuse.

Ask AN for proper USB isochronous support, in fact, ask them for proper USB audio client drivers too, just in case they answer you that "many USB client drivers are broken and do not follow specs". If they have no interest and it still is important for you, then move to another OS. It is that easy.

Sorry, Lars. I inadvertently misled you regarding the driver usbaudio.sys and core 14.204.
Everything works correctly. The error arose due to the fact that the installer added another line to Config.sys with the driver's loading and the situation with double loading of different versions of the driver arose. As a result, an error occurred when loading the system.
There was no error with the OS4 core, because there I edit the Config file with my hands.
One way or another, but now everything starts and plays in both configurations.
However, there are problems with the stability of sound and Progress bar in PM123. I am surprised to observe when playing the sound of a jerk
Progress Bar back. Perhaps this is due to the incorrect work of isosynchronous transmission.
The sound has not croaks yet, but I spent few tests without the load of the system.

Hi Igor.

I created this Wiki page based in your HW report: https://www.os2world.com/wiki/index.php/Synaptics_Conexant_CX31993

1) For what I know USBAUDIO.SYS is for some specific USB Audio devices (USB 1.x ?) and USBAUD2.SYS for some other kind of USB Audio devices (USB 2) with other chipsets. I'm guessing that your "Synaptics Conexant CX31993" works with "USBAUD2.SYS", so we can forget about "USBAUDIO.SYS".

2) What are your specific audio tests here? Are you running an MP3 with some specific player? and what disk activity makes the audio intermittent? Are you running MIDI? Audio from the WPS?
Does your machine has an Audio device that works with UNIAUD so you can test the difference between the two devices?

3) I don't know if Lar's "USBAUD2.SYS" works with AN USB 3.0 drivers. Maybe Lars can answer that. I assuming your machine has USB 2 and USB 3 ports that are independent because of your comments.

1. Yes, right. This device is supported by the USBAUD2.Sys driver.
However, I also have other USB 2.0 devices supported by usbaudio.sys.
I already realized that I can’t use them together. At the same time, they are connected in two different ports, but even the USBRes scanner does not see them.
Separately - sees. I wonder why?

2. I use version 1.43 for the PM123 test (build 2022-08-02). As far as I understand, the player uses the DART for playing sound.
I play FLAC and mp3 files.
I also have an onboard device Uniaud, which works very well in all tests.

3. I have separate independent USB 2.0 and USB 3 controllers on my motherboard.

Hardware / Re: Connexant cx31993 and USB3 stack

I managed to play the sound from this device (with some problems).
First of all, I re -installed the USBAudio and USBWAV set from Lars on top of the installed AOS 5.1 system.
Most likely, the installer prescribed everything correctly this time.
Problems that have arisen:
1. The USBAudio.Sys driver does not load with a core 14.204. With the OS4 core, this driver is loading, but does not work.
At the same time, the USBAUD2 loads in both cases and play the sound.
2. With disk activity, malfunctions arise in the sound - it becomes intermittent, sometimes there are artifacts in the sound and in the calm
condition.
3. The device does not work in the USB3 port, the system does not see it.

All ports are checked - they work USB Flash.

No sound. I'm using the driver from Lars Erdmann:10.248#@OS/2 USB Audio 2.0 Device Driver
Any ideas on howto to fix it?

Hi Igor, one way to do it is to install the official Dooble with YUM/ANPM and then to use that to download my builds.
And yes, it would be good to have somewhere better to host the files.

It doesn't work.
I run Dooble and see:

Hi Dave,

Here's the latest release. This time I built an RPM and this is the resulting zip. Perhaps I should revert to how I was doing it previously? The RPM itself has a link on the other thread.
https://c.gmx.com/@744346040190108571/1rOkBfA9T76_YoI4dOIS0A

My browser Seamonkey does not open this link. Is it possible to place the archive somewhere else or give recommendations for downloading?
I can also offer my server to host the archive, if that's interesting.

Hi Lars,

A floppy disk will never show up under LVM. And LVM will only show dummy units for whatever is specified via the /REMOVABLES switch.

Will this be the case even if the ZIP drive is connected to the IDE bus?
I see in my message similar to the truth figures (96) regarding the capacity of the disk...
