VIA device driver 2.10B

2001-11-03 20:12:12 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [www.os2.org, Andreas Dafferner]

Crystal Drivers

2001-10-19 19:57:57 -- Igor Vanin [VOICENWS, Steven Douglas Taylor]

If you have trouble with crystal soundchips with drivers from the manufactures like AOpen aw 320 soundcard for OS/2. Download the drivers for these cards and others here. These drivers are sometime better with addition features.

Moderator comments:
These are not new drivers on the Cirrus site (last updated in July 2000), but there has been a lot of discussion on some forums about audio drivers, so this tip may be of help to people having problems with getting these cards to work right under OS/2.

AC 97 and VIA chipset

2001-10-17 00:23:03 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [www.os2.org, Roderick Klein]

VIA is working on a new version of drivers

Some people have contacted me about this driver, asking what the status was. Well VIA released a driver about 1 or 1/2 half years ago. This driver worked in a few cases but was for the rest a disaster (sorry if developers read this). For eComStation I'm working on collecting drivers and getting a license to include them. The VIA driver also has my attention and I have contacted VIA and past along the bugs which where documented in the patch on hobbes. I also had a lot of cases where there was no sound. Or system sounds where played to fast. Also with playing a video file I got a trap. I past al this information along. Last week I was told they where working on a new version.

All I can say, lets hope it has improved and keep an eye on www.via.com.tw. When it will be released I don't know. BTW: Does somebody out there have a VIA motherboard with a BUILD ON nic chipset from VIA. I have drivers that need testing.

More adaptec drivers.

2001-10-15 02:48:53 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [VOICENWS]

IBM has beta drivers for the Adaptec AIC7870.ADD, AIC78U2.ADD and AICU160.ADD on their testcase site.

From the readme.txt "These are BETA TEST ONLY drivers to resolve issues with long chkdsk and with geometry problems with Adaptec SCSI cards and ZIP drives. Use at your own risk!"
ftp://testcase.boulder.ibm.com/ps/fromibm/os2/newadaptec.zip

As the readme states, use these at your own risk. Also be aware that rarely does anything stay on IBM's testcase site for more then 2-3 days, so if you think you want these get them now.

I have installed the beta AIC7870.ADD driver on a system with a builtin 7870 UW-SCSI controller and have had no problems in the past 3 hours. I have done some very limited testing concerning the slow CHKDSK on boot problem. Hopefully the followingt table is readable. Both partitions tested are HPFS.


Driver for C-Media CMI8738 audiocard was updated (0.1.3)

2001-10-02 16:24:28 -- Igor Vanin [VOICENWS, Timo Maier]

This is a port of the open source C-Media PCI Linux audio driver.
URL: http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/incoming/cmedia013.zip.

Driver is based on Sander van Leeuwen's Soundblaster Live! project. Although the driver is almost feature complete, it should still be considered beta software.

Features:

  • One playback stream
  • One record stream
  • Full duplex
  • Support for the IOCTL90 mixer interface (designed by Joe Nord of Crystal Semiconductor and supported by the Crystal OS/2 audio drivers) - experimental four channel output

sb live driver needs DOS support, please HELP!!!

2001-08-31 17:42:08 -- Igor Vanin [Paulo Dias]

i send a mail to Sander, the author of the sb live driver for os/2, and asked for dos support, which he promptly sayed NO! :P i can't blame i'm since he doesn't have any time left. since i'm no programmer, i would like to know if you guys are interested in adding DOS support to the driver. i know the generic winos/2 audio project promisses to add support some day, but that's too vage and i need dos support because i use quickviewer for dos to see opendivx movies (that warpmedia currently doesn't support) and some other media formats and also for mame:) since sb live drivers are open sourced, how hard can it be? any reply would be greatly appreciated:)
