pcxhrloader - Firmware loader for Digigram pcxhr compatible soundcards
|
||||
Digigram <alsa@digigram.com>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
GENERAL
|
||||
=======
|
||||
|
||||
pcxhrloader is a helper program to load the firmware binaries
|
||||
onto Digigram's pcxhr compatible board sound drivers.
|
||||
The following modules require this program:
|
||||
snd-pcxhr
|
||||
These drivers don't work properly at all until the certain firmwares
|
||||
are loaded, i.e. no PCM nor mixer devices will appear.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
USAGE
|
||||
=====
|
||||
|
||||
When pcxhrloader is invoked without options, it will probe all existing
|
||||
soundcards until a valid pcxhr-driver is found. If a valid pcxhr-driver is
|
||||
found, pcxhrloader reads the board type from the driver. The corresponding
|
||||
firmware binaries are then read and transferred to the driver.
|
||||
Finally, pcxhrloader initializes the PCM and the mixer devices on the
|
||||
driver for making the soundcard full functional.
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of auto-probing, you can specify the card number or the hwdep
|
||||
device name via -c and -D options, respectively.
|
||||
|
||||
% pcxhrloader -c 1
|
||||
% pcxhrloader -D hw:0
|
||||
|
||||
For loading the firmware automatically after the module is loaded, use
|
||||
the post-install command. For example, add the following entry to
|
||||
/etc/modules.conf for pcxhr driver:
|
||||
|
||||
post-install snd-pcxhr /usr/bin/pcxhrloader
|
||||
|
||||
FILES
|
||||
=====
|
||||
|
||||
The firmware binaries are installed on /usr/share/alsa/firmware/pcxhrloader
|
||||
(or /usr/local/share/alsa/firmware/pcxhrloader, depending to the prefix
|
||||
option of configure). There will be *.conf files, which define the dsp image
|
||||
files for each different card type.
