[TriLUG] RE: Minor problems installing RHL 7.2 on a Toshiba 2 800-S201

[Vestal, Roy L.]

Okey, I pulled a stupid.

I ran sndconfig (Hey Lisa, K.I.S.S. worked again!) and it found it and set
the aliases for me. Duh.  I found this on the web:
 
from http://www.tiani.org/~kianusch/sr1k.html:

"Installing Sound:

For some reason I (and other Users) have experienced an annoying buzzing
sound when using sound.  One solution I found was to load the modules very
early in the booting stage,
or compile in into the kernel.

Kernel 2.4.x (2.2.18 and later):

Yamaha Corporation YMF-754 [DS-1E AudioController] is now included in the
kernel.  Simply activate the following Entries and hear the
sound. 

       #
       # Sound
       #
       CONFIG_SOUND=y
       ...
       CONFIG_SOUND_OSS=y
       ...
       CONFIG_SOUND_YMFPCI=y  "


Still looking for the modem stuff. Sorry about the sound.

I've been there but the only docs are for RH Linux 6.1

I'm not sure where to begin. I've found that my sound card is the same
one
that is in the Sony Vaio PCG series, but all the docs there are for the
2.2.x kernel. I have 2.4.16, and I am under the impression that this is
supported since the sony is using ALSA drivers under RH 6.1.

The Sound card in /proc/pci:

bus 0, Device 12, Function 0:
   Multimedia audio controller: yamaha Corporation YMF-754 [DS-1E Audio
Controller] (rev 0).
   IRQ 11.
   Master Capable. Latency-64. Min Gnt=5.Max Lat=25
   Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xefdf0000 [0xefdf7fff].
   I/O at 0xec0 [0xfeff].
   I/O at 0xfebc [0xfebf].

It appears that the sound card is on IRQ 11. maybe a conflict?

The modem is a Xircom MPCI Modem 56, and I looked on linmodems.org and
was
told to use the lucent driver. I downloaded it but again it was for the
2.2.x kernel.

This is the modem in /proc/pci:
Bus 0, device 8, function `:
   Serial controller: PCI device 115d:00d4 (Xircom) (rev 0).
   IRQ 11.
   I/0 at 0xff38 [0xff3f].

It appears that the modem is on com3 IRQ 11 (am I reading this right?)

Hope this jars someone's brain!  Any help is greatly appreciated.

Have you looked at:  http://www.linux-laptop.net/

If you're having problems, could you send us more specific questions
(and perhaps error outputs from failed attempts)?
