OSS 4.2 fails to load - Intel ICH9, 82801I

[cesium]

You get build errors when it links? Possibly due to rev. 736 which will need to be applied again. (You don't have to mess with the repo, since osscore.c is compiled later when the modules are loaded and the API didn't change. Copy osscore.c from the latest rev to /tmp, and then copy that to /usr/lib/oss/build after installing OSS but before starting it/linking the modules).

[MadCatX]

I tried what you suggested, copied the "setup/Linux/oss/build/osscore.c" from the latest rev to /usr/lib/oss after installing rev 586, but it's a no go. First the relinking script complained about some missing headers, I copied them too from build/kernel/framework/include. Then it complained about missin "ubuntu_hack something.inc" which I couldn't find anywhere in the sources, so I commented it out in osscore.c. I finally hit the wall with "No rule to make target osscore_mainline.o" error.
I used every possible method I could think of, I replaced the osscore.c before configuring, I tried to build either with AUR building script (Arch linux specific) and from the plain source directly. Results were always the same. I even tried rev 765 since you mentioned that the change occured in rev 736, surprisingly, it didn't work either.

I really appreciate all the help you're providing, if there is anything more I can try, let me know.

[cesium]

Try this tarball. It doesn't report right version, but it's build 586. Extract it to '/' as root, and do 'cd /usr/lib/oss/build; sudo sh install.sh' followed by soundon. Hopefully you can test this...

[MadCatX]

Nice, the tarball installed sucessfully, but when I run soundon, oss still crashes while loading "oss_hdaudio". I get this in dmesg

Could you make a similar tarball with some earlier revision I can try?

[cesium]

Yeah, I can. But first, how about we try this: copy the entire /usr/lib/oss/build subdir somewhere else, build an earlier rev, and copy the files from the subdir back overwriting previous files. I think this will allow you to test earlier revisions more easily.

[MadCatX]

OK, should I build them with any specific configure parameters except --regparm?

[MadCatX]

Now this is awesome. I built rev 583 (make build && make tarball) and installed it according your instructions. Not only the driver loaded with no crash, but I have full sound! I haven't done much of an extensive testing, but KDE 4 sound system and mplayer seem to work just fine. Thanks for all the help you gave me...

Hi,

Can you try this diff with latest mercurial? It would help fixing the bug in trunk...

[MadCatX]

I'm pleased to inform that this fixes the crash on the latest mercurial:) Build and installation was 100% straightaway, no extra hacks and configure parameters needed. The only issue I have now is no sound when playing stuff in flashplayer (had that in 583 too) , but I guess that's a completely different story. Anyway, great work guys!

[cesium]

The Arch build removes libflashsupport from the source tree. I think it's a separate AUR, but you can also create it manually.

[MadCatX]

I haven't been using AUR to make sure the build script doesn't screw something up. Now when everything seems to be solved I modified the AUR script to include flash support and the proposed hdaudio patch and everything is perfectly fine. It's great to have OSS up and running, thanx again...

Hi,

I had problems with oss 4.2 and hardware described below. Just modprobing oss_hdaudio was causing immediate and total system freeze.
I tried latest mercurial version and everything works fine.
Many thanks!
