Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

The PSS cards and other ECHO based cards provide an onboard DSP with
|
||||
downloadable programs and also has an AD1848 "Microsoft Sound System"
|
||||
device. The PSS driver enables MSS and MPU401 modes of the card. SB
|
||||
is not enabled since it doesn't work concurrently with MSS.
|
||||
|
||||
If you build this driver as a module then the driver takes the following
|
||||
parameters
|
||||
|
||||
pss_io. The I/O base the PSS card is configured at (normally 0x220
|
||||
or 0x240)
|
||||
|
||||
mss_io The base address of the Microsoft Sound System interface.
|
||||
This is normally 0x530, but may be 0x604 or other addresses.
|
||||
|
||||
mss_irq The interrupt assigned to the Microsoft Sound System
|
||||
emulation. IRQ's 3,5,7,9,10,11 and 12 are available. If you
|
||||
get IRQ errors be sure to check the interrupt is set to
|
||||
"ISA/Legacy" in the BIOS on modern machines.
|
||||
|
||||
mss_dma The DMA channel used by the Microsoft Sound System.
|
||||
This can be 0, 1, or 3. DMA 0 is not available on older
|
||||
machines and will cause a crash on them.
|
||||
|
||||
mpu_io The MPU emulation base address. This sets the base of the
|
||||
synthesizer. It is typically 0x330 but can be altered.
|
||||
|
||||
mpu_irq The interrupt to use for the synthesizer. It must differ
|
||||
from the IRQ used by the Microsoft Sound System port.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The mpu_io/mpu_irq fields are optional. If they are not specified the
|
||||
synthesizer parts are not configured.
|
||||
|
||||
When the module is loaded it looks for a file called
|
||||
/etc/sound/pss_synth. This is the firmware file from the DOS install disks.
|
||||
This fil holds a general MIDI emulation. The file expected is called
|
||||
genmidi.ld on newer DOS driver install disks and synth.ld on older ones.
|
||||
|
||||
You can also load alternative DSP algorithms into the card if you wish. One
|
||||
alternative driver can be found at http://www.mpg123.de/
