Hi Thomas, dear List

here we go:

dmesg | grep Hammerfall:
ALSA
/usr/local/src/alsa-driver-1.0.9rc1/alsa-kernel/pci/rme9652/hdsp.c:775:
Hammerfall-DSP: wait for FIFO status <= 0 failed after 30 iterations
ALSA
/usr/local/src/alsa-driver-1.0.9rc1/alsa-kernel/pci/rme9652/hdsp.c:5059:
Hammerfall-DSP: couldn't get firmware from userspace. try using hdsploader
ALSA
/usr/local/src/alsa-driver-1.0.9rc1/alsa-kernel/pci/rme9652/hdsp.c:5066:
Hammerfall-DSP: card initialization pending : waiting for firmware
ALSA
/usr/local/src/alsa-driver-1.0.9rc1/alsa-kernel/pci/rme9652/hdsp.c:775:
Hammerfall-DSP: wait for FIFO status <= 0 failed after 30 iterations

Manually running hdsploader gives:
hdsploader - firmware loader for RME Hammerfall DSP cards
Looking for HDSP + Multiface or Digiface cards :
Card 0 : PowerMac Screamer Rev 0
Card 1 : RME Hammerfall DSP at 0xf3000000, irq 58
Upload firmware for card hw:1
Hwdep ioctl error on card hw:1 : Input/output error.

cat /proc/asound/version:
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.9rc1.
Compiled on Mar 20 2005 for kernel 2.6.11.5.

The alsa-drivers are modules, the firmware_class is a module too.

lsmod | grep hdsp:
snd_hdsp 64548 1
firmware_class 9664 1 snd_hdsp
snd_hwdep 9892 1 snd_hdsp
snd_pcm 115140 3 snd_hdsp,snd_powermac,snd_pcm_oss
snd_page_alloc 9988 2 snd_hdsp,snd_pcm
snd_rawmidi 27424 2 snd_hdsp,snd_seq_midi
snd 71264 18
snd_hdsp,snd_hwdep,snd_powermac,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_midi_event,snd_seq,snd_timer,snd_seq_device

The only thing i find is the "couldn't get firmware from userspace' line
as a hint.

regards,

Peter
