Hi Geert, On 14 Mar, this message from Geert Uytterhoeven echoed through cyberspace:
No comments whether it works on PowerMac and Atari? I'd like to let this go in 2.4.0, since a driver for the Q40 is soon to be added.
With all the latest patches applied: 1. compiled-in doesn't work; it seems the low-level parts are not initialised: Mar 19 08:54:33 piglet kernel: kmod: failed to exec -s -k sound-slot-0, errno = 2 Mar 19 08:54:33 piglet kernel: kmod: failed to exec -s -k sound-service-0-6, errno = 2 2. generic sound support compiled-in, PowerMac dmasound as a module: kernel doesn't boot (hangs somewhere very early, drops me back onto OF's screen) 3. sound & dmasound as modules: seems to work ok AFAICT. I don't have any real sound apps to test, except system beep and using the mixer ;-) Sorry I've not looked in more detail what's wrong, but I'm on other subjects at the moment...
