Hi Guys.

Have anybody got this soundcard - and been able to make it work??
http://www.creative.com/products/produc … duct=14066
the homepage.

When I follow the wiki about Creative, under the instruction about
# amixer set Master 75 unmute
amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such device

Have anybody an Idea about this ???? I would really like to get it working along with Myth TV!
here is :
# lsmod |grep snd
snd_seq_oss 31716 0
snd_seq_midi_event 6400 1 snd_seq_oss
snd_seq 49996 4 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi_event
snd_pcm_oss 38176 0
snd_pcm 78084 1 snd_pcm_oss
snd_timer 20100 2 snd_seq,snd_pcm
snd_page_alloc 8200 1 snd_pcm
snd_mixer_oss 16384 1 snd_pcm_oss
snd_mpu401 6368 0
snd_mpu401_uart 6528 1 snd_mpu401
snd_rawmidi 20512 1 snd_mpu401_uart
snd_seq_device 6924 3 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_rawmidi
snd 46432 10 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_pcm_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_mixer_oss,snd_mpu401,snd_mpu401_uart,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device
soundcore 7776 1 snd

And then again
# :ls -l /dev/snd
total 0
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 32 2006-06-03 00:21 controlC1
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 18 2006-06-03 00:21 midi1
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 40 2006-06-03 00:21 midiC1D0
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 1 2006-06-03 00:21 seq
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 33 2006-06-03 00:21 timer

I`ve added snd_mpu401 to modulesline in /etc/rc.conf

So please give me a bid to make it work'
Thanks

There are no alsa-drivers for this card. Creative will release some closed-source-drivers next year.

And that's it - no way to make this work. A friend of mine won it in a competition. But He's has not anything to use it for...

And that's not a guilty reason to change to windows.
