Solved: I had to switch the BIOS from "Auto" to "Always enable".

I did some reading and hacking myself, since it just seems to be the
same as the Prodigy 7.1 with just a different model ID. See the attached
patch for a first version. It seems to work thus far without any problems.

I recommend you to use the same string for this driver name here.
This string is referred by alsa-lib to pick up the corresponding
config file.  As Prodigy 7.1 Hifi is almost identical with Prodigy 7.1
LT from the configuration POV, it should use "Prodigy71LT", too, so
that you don't have to change alsa-lib at all.

Otherwise changes look OK to me, but your patch conflicts with the
latest ALSA HG tree because of the patch applied prior to this.
Could you regenerate the patch to ALSA HG tree (with the fix above)?


thanks,

Takashi

No, the HiFi seems to be more like the Prodigy71 (without 'LT' or 'XT')
But I might err. Is there something I can do to test is it has 3 or 4
DACs, which seems to be the main difference?

Yes, see below. Three more questions:
1. Since the "Aureon7.1", "Prodigy7.1" and my "Prodigy7.1HiFi"; as well
as the "Prodigy7.1LT" and the "Prodigy7.1XT" respectively seem so share
the same EEPROM-Date, wouldn't it be better to re-use/share those
eeprom-data instead of declaring them 3 respectively 2 times?
Not much space saving, but gcc seems to be too stupid to recognize this;
Even const'ifying the structures doesn't help.

2. Most arrays and structures seem to be read only, what about adding
'const' to them?

3. Do you prefer array initialization in the form of
 {1, 2, 3, } /* IDX0, IDX1, IDX2 */
or as
 { [IDX0] = 1, [IDX1] = 2, [IDX2] = 3, }

You're doing the main job, I have to thank you.

Well, with our without LT doesn't matter because both are aliased to
Aureon71 in alsa-lib/src/conf/cards/alias.conf.

Good point.  It's fine to merge them, of course.

Yes, it's better.

I don't care about this so much.  The former style has advantage that
you can copy the byte stream as it is while the latter is a better
coding style in general.  Though, if we change these things at once,
I'd take the latter style now.

IMO, it'd be better to split the changes to two patches, one for
cleaning up the above (merge to a single struct, add const and change 
the struct definition), and another to add 7.1 Hifi definition.

Could you work on these two patches?

Takashi

Well actually I am fiddling around with the same card also. Since
nobody responded here in this mailing list anymore I went into

https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=2384

and evolved a separate prodigy_hifi.c which is quite redundant due to
the simialirities but I have to get know to als coding and wanted to
clean up later. This here looks clean and seems to work though.

I went back here Raymond pointing me to the alsa-devel archive. This
is the first mail which arrives at my mail account so I answer now
here.

I applied your stuff onto alsa-driver-1.0.14rc2.

In my opinion Prodigy7.1HiFi eeprom_ data has to be slightly
different, I need to put 

[ICE_EEP2_SYSCONF] = 0x4b

instead of

[ICE_EEP2_SYSCONF] = 0x0b

Otherwise I got speeded up sound playback.
See note (0014172) in this thread by me.

What I am currently fiddling about is the CS8415A Chip:

ALSA /XXX/alsa-kernel/pci/ice1712/aureon.c:1921: No CS8415
chip. Skipping CS8415 controls.

In the note (0014176) I am trying to search it at the i2c address it
should appear at. Still I did not found it :-)

Okay, I got the CS8451 at the i2c bus, I had to left shift my bitmask
to get the idea of how i2c addressing works:

        printk(KERN_DEBUG "addr_cs: %02x value 0x7F: %02x\n",
               addr_cs, snd_vt1724_read_i2c(ice, addr_cs, CS8415_ID));
        printk(KERN_DEBUG "addr_cs: %02x value 0x7F: %02x\n",
               addr_cs, snd_vt1724_read_i2c(ice, addr_cs+1,
	       CS8415_ID));
gives:

i2c_read: [0x2e,0x7f] = 0x41
addr_cs: 2e value 0x7F: 41
i2c_read: [0x2f,0x7f] = 0x41
addr_cs: 2e value 0x7F: 41

Hmmm...

Re: A: VIA Technologies Inc. VT1720/24

[Konstantin Kletschke]

Now I inspected your approach more in detail. As I said things are
working well, but other as my approach the volume sliders (Master and
PCM) have no effect. They are moving but the sound keeps being at a
moderate level (constant). 

I suppose the wm8776 is not addressed correctly, where does aureon.c
expect it? I am still fiddling this out.

Are you both really shure? From code side of view the HiFi seems to be
the first combination of vt1724 and wm8776 and 8766 and cs8415a.

Philipp, is your prodigy 7.1 hifi really functional with your patch
mailed in this thread? Mine still needs the other initialisation
register value and cs8415a is not initialized here.

As said, now I realize the main mixer don't have effect on output
volume.

Thanks for the patches.  Now I applied 4 clean up patches (and fixed
some warnings), committed to HG tree.

But the patch for Prodigy 7.1 Hifi is still pending since another
deveopment by Konstantin is ongoing, too.  Could you both of you
cooperate to make more solid support for that hardware?

Of course, I can take one of your patches as a prototype, and make it
merged to the standard tree as a start up.  Anyway, I'd like hear the
opinions from both of you at first.


thanks,

Takashi

Well, I strongly recommend. As I asked before, I am still wondering
how the initial patch works on Philipps Computer. 

While the wm8776 is implementend as a SPI device in aureon.c (and used
this way in the Prodigy 7.1 Hifi driver in aureon.c here) I use it in
i2c mode with success. What still missing is spi read/write stuff for
the wm8766 I am currently working on. Also there is a cs8415a in i2c
mode connected, whereas aureon.c expects it in SPI mode currently. 

Due to that essential differences I started a (quite good working!)
skeleton based on a Hercules fortissmo4 approach I discovered in
bugtrack.alsa-project.org. There I went into a prodigy hifi thread 
https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=2384
and put in my prodigy_hifi.c (which envolved meanwhile) for discussion.

> Of course, I can take one of your patches as a prototype, and make

I really wonder how/if Philipps stuff works. It gives a working card,
but (as I expected) the main volume mixers are not working. All
essential chips known to be connected in SPI mode need to be
initialized to speak i2c on this board.

> merged to the standard tree as a start up.  Anyway, I'd like hear the

May be Philps patch needs only slight work, my approach of a
completely additional file prodigy_hifi.c might be most probably work
of greenhorn in hacking alsa device drivers, so I am here for
discussion. At the moment I am trying to get hands onto the wm8766
chip, which needs proper SPI functions. I can nowhere adopt existing
ones as far as I can see.

What I forgot to point out: It gives basic functionality but main
volume sliders are not working. Sound is constant at moderate
level. This is expected by me, since aureon.c seems to speak in spi
mode to wm8776, it needs i2c functions.

It's directly to me, and looks like no post appearing on ML.
Maybe it's filtered out due to too many attachments.

FWIW, most of patches in that post have been already committed to ALSA
HG tree, and only the addition of the new entry for 7.1 Hifi was
missing.  It's almost identical with what Philipp posted.

Well, I am still at it also did philip mail me, he is alive.

I had so god damn much work recently I could not spend work into the
prodigy hifi support (spi for wm8766 and i2c for cs8415a are TODO).
