Xonar STX headphone output

[execute.method]

Hi,
Could someone please tell me how to change to the headphone output, as I don't have any sound there right now, only line out.

Thanks in advance.

I may have found the issue....

Gonna compile from HG. Looks like there are some recent changes for CMI878X.
Namely:

Code: Select all

+    mixer_ext_set_strings (dev, ctl, "Speaker Headphone FrontHeadphone", 0);

I'll report back

Nope didn't do it.

This is my mixer currently:

Does this not mean there should be an option in the mixer for this?

[execute.method]

It looks like this was implemented a year ago already, why is it not there. Or....am I just not doing it right?

The patch wasn't applied to the repository for some reason, but I'm told it does work (Micheal tested it..)

[Michal]

There were a bunch of fixes for ST/STX including switching the output: http://opensound.hg.sourceforge.net/hgw ... 0ff65ca911
execute.method: You need at least v4.2-2006.

I saw that. I am on archlinux. The oss-hg package pulls from sourceforge.
I checked the source during the build, and the correct oss_cmi878x.c file is there, but it still shows v -2005 in ossinfo.

Any Ideas?

Here is the PKGBUILD:

edit irrelevant

[Michal]

Try to remove current modules.

Code: Select all

# soundoff
# rm -rf /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/oss/
# soundon

[execute.method]

Try to rem

ove current modules.

Code: Select all

# soundoff
# rm -rf /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/oss/
# soundon

Still says build 2005, and no change to the mixer.
I've even removed the package, oss dir, reenabled alsa, rebooted, tested, and then reinstalled fresh. This also did not produce a change. Is there anything else on my system that would be hanging onto the old version, or is it a problem with the source?

Thanks for your help so far.

[vincentroberts]

It might be possible that it's a problem with the source.

execute.method: I have no idea, sorry. Talk to your distribution.

[execute.method]

This is now fixed.

I patched the official package to the hg source, and all is right in the world.

Now we just need the ability to change the output impedance to accommodate different impedance headphones.
