Open Sound System

The patch for the motherboard has been backported to kernel 4.11-16. It appears the patch itself breaks compatibility with OSS. The dmesg log is attached.

The AMD-Vi pagefaults are coming from my Asus Xonar DX soundcard - it may be a hardware/firmware fault. But oddly enough in my last computer with Asus M5A99FX Pro R2.0, I still had to use iommu=pt to get the motherboard sound working well, even though the Xonar DX was not installed. What's interesti...

The first command produced no output. $ sudo dmidecode -t baseboard # dmidecode 3.0 Getting SMBIOS data from sysfs. SMBIOS 3.0.0 present.

So, I got a Gigabyte motherboard and as it turns out only kernel 4.12 has the IRQ fixes needed to run it. The problem is, OSS doesn't work with 4.12. It fails to compile oss_usb and while it will start, it encounters a problem if you try to play a sound. I also had to use iommu=pt again to get rid o...

Hi everyone. Has anyone gotten the microphone working for Google Hangouts when using OSS? It does not seem to detect any microphones. I can record in Audacity so I know it's working. ~$ ossinfo Version info: OSS 4.2 (b 2011/201609130257) (0x00040100) GPL Platform: Linux/x86_64 4.9.0-4.1-liquorix-amd...

I want to use Baudline, but it doesn't seem to even be compatible with OSS despite it being it's default output driver. First, it tells me "/dev/audio: no such file or directory". So I symlink /dev/audio to /dev/dsp (or any other device node). Then it says "/dev/audio requested fragsi...

Sooooo, the soundon.user I had was this: sudo vmixctl attach /dev/oss/oss_hdaudio0/spdout0 sudo vmixctl rate /dev/oss/oss_hdaudio0/pcm0 192000 sudo vmixctl rate /dev/oss/oss_cmi878x0/pcm0 192000 sudo vmixctl rate /dev/dsp 192000 exit 0 I did that because I was trying to output to SPDIF specifically,...

Hello everyone. Vmix doesn't succeed at changing my samplerate, and sometimes crashes. $ inxi -bxx System: Host: ronin Kernel: 4.4-3.dmz.2-liquorix-amd64 x86_64 (64 bit gcc: 5.3.1) Desktop: Xfce 4.12.3 (Gtk 2.24.28) dm: lightdm Distro: Debian GNU/Linux stretch/sid Machine: Mobo: ASUSTeK model: M5A99...

Well I just reinstalled my system and had to rediscover this again. This fix was particularly tricky to find. It breaks the HDAudio driver for some people, so really I think it should be added to the driver. For those wondering how to do it, who are using Grub2, you open /etc/default/grub with root ...

I tried this patch and this is what I get: $ sudo make install make -C /lib/modules/3.12-11.dmz.1-liquorix-amd64/build M=/usr/lib/oss/cuckoo modules make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-3.12-11.dmz.1-liquorix-amd64' CC [M] /usr/lib/oss/cuckoo/cuckoo.o CC [M] /usr/lib/oss/cuckoo/cuckoo...

Well, using the iommu=pt kernel option works, so I don't have to disable IOMMU. Finally, I have sound.

This looks like a very similar issue: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.iommu/1813 This thread at least provides an explanation: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=168467 Why hasn't ASUS fixed the BIOS? sudo tail /var/log/kern.log Feb 19 13:56:00 ronin kernel: oss_hdaudio: HDA cod...

I have installed the latest Git source using the kernel 3.12 patch. Previously my HDAudio card worked fine, but now the mixer panel is blank and OSS doesn't seem to recognize it fully: lspci 00:14.2 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.

I'd really like to see Cuckoo working as well. Thanks for this!

osscore.c WAS blank when I did git clone, twice. That was my point. Only after I went to the webpage and downloaded that file specifically did everything work. I don't think this was a coincidence since that is the last and most recent update by Hannu. It must be some sort of Git error. It's no surp...
