EMU 1212m and Ubuntu 12.04.

[DrPhuzzichtkeit]

After spending 10.000 years on getting my soundcard working on 10.04 (mostly searching for information about how to enable it) I would like to write a small guide on how I just did it on 12.04.

1. Add the medibuntu repository.
2. Install the alsa-firmware, i.e. in a terminal, run

   sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install alsa-firmware

   .
3. Restart the computer.
4. In a terminal, run

   alsa-mixer

   .
5. Arrow left/right until you find <Clock In>.
6. Arrow up/down to select 44100 (default is 48000).

That's it!

Should probably work on 10.04 as well, but I can not confirm this as I mixed up my system there by double installing different alsa-firmware versions and so on...

Just confirmed that this guide works on Ubuntu 10.04 as well.

Great! Worked as a charm. Thanks a lot!

This is not working for me. I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 and I have the 1212m PCIe. I installed everything like said above. but when I try to start "alsamixer" it reports to me that there is not such file or directory. Also if I type in aplay -l get this:

Karte 1: Generic [HD-Audio Generic], Gerät 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0]
Sub-Geräte: 1/1
Sub-Gerät #0: subdevice #0

--> but for me it looks like the internal soundcard of my graphic card (amd radeon hd 5670)

when i type lspci -v I find this in the list:

04:04.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB0400 Audigy2 Value
Subsystem: Creative Labs Device 4007
Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 16
I/O ports at dc00 [size=64]
Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2
Kernel modules: snd-emu10k1

can anybody help me? Ubuntu without sound output is kinda... quiet

Hello,

Bugs with PCIe versions of this card have been described here :

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...ight=emu+1616m

I've made my Emu1616m (1010m and microdock) work on Ubuntu TangoStudio (kernel 2.6.32-41-lowlatency) with manual compilation of the latest alsa version and a patch.

I've followed this how-to to compile alsa 1.0.25 with a script : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1681577

And applied the patch before compilation (point 6) on the freshly downloaded file named "emu10k1_main.c" somewhere in "/opt/". The patch can be found here on my post : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...u+1616m&page=2

Hope this will be of any help.

I changed the script (updated servers): https://www.dropbox.com/s/qbsv955x24...de-1.0.25-3.sh

Took this tut and followed the instructions of it: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...681577&page=20

and then before compiling (step 6) patched the "emu10k1_main.c" in "opt/Alsa-1.0.25/alsa-driver7Alsa-kernel/pci/emu10k1/" like this:

patch "your path"/pci/emu10k1/emu10k1_main.c /path/to/emu1010pcie.patch

then installed it like mentioned in the thread and after reboot I had working sound!

Great. Thanks.

thanks I'm dumping my ubuntu and going to try the fedora distro since it supposed to work.

I'm not the rocket scientist like you guys, I do music for a living. And maybe you and make it do it automatically.

plus this card needs to run at 176.4 khz. the s/mux system needs to work in both modes (x2 for 88.2/96 khz and x4 for 176.8/192khz ) for this card to work like it should.

maybe it has to do with the xilinx spartan chip don't know

Thanx Dr Phuzz!

Works perfectly. Know what you mean about 10k years.
