Hi forum,

it's been a while since isa-support-t5438.html
Now I'm back for another try.

Looks like I need to compile a custom kernel to get ISA support for my Yamaha opl3-sa2 sound chip.

This is what I did
+ get kernel sources from
========= SCRAPER REMOVED AN EMBEDDED LINK HERE ===========
url was:"https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/linux-3.7.10.tar.bz2"
linktext was:"https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel ... 10.tar.bz2"
====================================
and extracted it
+ $make oldconfig && $make menuconfig
+ add support for ISA and OPL3-SA2 and PentiumII
+ save .config
+ $CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=1 fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-custom kernel_image kernel_headers (from

)

Installed and ran it. System boots, X starts, network works.
But alsamixer still doesn't start:

Code: Select all

$alsamixer
cannot open mixer: No such file or directory
here is a full dmesg

I believe the interesting device is this one:

$lspci -v

$lsmod

1) Do I have the correct sources? Or is there a special antiX sources repository for 3.7.10-antix-5.486-smp #2?
2) What do I have to load to get a Yamaha OPL3-SA2 to work?

Ciao,
