This is for connection to external MIDI hardware, and is not required for software playback of MIDI files. config SOUND_OSS tristate "OSS sound modules" depends on SOUND_PRIME && ISA_DMA_API help OSS is the Open Sound System suite of sound card drivers. They make sound programming easier since they provide a common API. Say Y or M here (the module will be called sound) if you haven't found a driver for your sound card above, then pick your driver from the list below. config SOUND_TRACEINIT bool "Verbose initialisation" depends on SOUND_OSS help Verbose soundcard initialization -- affects the format of autoprobe and initialization messages at boot time. config SOUND_DMAP bool "Persistent DMA buffers" depends on SOUND_OSS ---help--- Linux can often have problems allocating DMA buffers for ISA sound cards on machines with more than 16MB of RAM. This is because ISA DMA buffers must exist below the 16MB boundary and it is quite possible that a large enough free block in this region cannot be found after the machine has been running for a while. If you say Y here the DMA buffers (64Kb) will be allocated at boot time and kept until the shutdown. This option is only useful if you said Y to "OSS sound modules", above. If you said M to "OSS sound modules" then you can get the persistent DMA buffer functionality by passing the command-line argument "dmabuf=1" to the sound module. Say Y unless you have 16MB or more RAM or a PCI sound card. config SOUND_AD1816 tristate "AD1816(A) based cards (EXPERIMENTAL)" depends on EXPERIMENTAL && SOUND_OSS && OSS_OBSOLETE_DRIVER help Say M here if you have a sound card based on the Analog Devices AD1816(A) chip.

The main function of the ACI is to control the mixer and to get a product identification. This VoxWare ACI driver currently supports the ACI functions on the miroSOUND PCM1-pro, PCM12 and PCM20 radio. On the PCM20 radio, ACI also controls the radio tuner. This is supported in the video4linux miropcm20 driver (say M or Y here and go back to "Multimedia devices" -> "Radio Adapters"). This driver is also available as a module and will be called aci. config SOUND_CS4232 tristate "Crystal CS4232 based (PnP) cards" depends on SOUND_OSS help Say Y here if you have a card based on the Crystal CS4232 chip set, which uses its own Plug and Play protocol. If you compile the driver into the kernel, you have to add "cs4232=,,,,," to the kernel command line.

For cards having native support in VoxWare, consult the card specific instructions in . Some drivers have their own MSS support and saying Y to this option will cause a conflict. If you compile the driver into the kernel, you have to add "ad1848=,,,[,]" to the kernel command line. config SOUND_MPU401 tristate "MPU-401 support (NOT for SB16)" depends on SOUND_OSS ---help--- Be careful with this question. The MPU401 interface is supported by all sound cards. However, some natively supported cards have their own driver for MPU401. Enabling this MPU401 option with these cards will cause a conflict. Also, enabling MPU401 on a system that doesn't really have a MPU401 could cause some trouble. If your card was in the list of supported cards, look at the card specific instructions in the file. It is safe to answer Y if you have a true MPU401 MIDI interface card. If you compile the driver into the kernel, you have to add "mpu401=," to the kernel command line. config SOUND_NM256 tristate "NM256AV/NM256ZX audio support" depends on SOUND_OSS && OSS_OBSOLETE_DRIVER help Say M here to include audio support for the NeoMagic 256AV/256ZX chipsets.

This interface is rarely found on sound cards. It's safe to answer N to this question. If you compile the driver into the kernel, you have to add "uart6850=," to the kernel command line. config SOUND_AEDSP16 tristate "Gallant Audio Cards (SC-6000 and SC-6600 based)" depends on SOUND_OSS ---help--- Answer Y if you have a Gallant's Audio Excel DSP 16 card. This driver supports Audio Excel DSP 16 but not the III nor PnP versions of this card. The Gallant's Audio Excel DSP 16 card can emulate either an SBPro or a Microsoft Sound System card, so you should have said Y to either "100% Sound Blaster compatibles (SB16/32/64, ESS, Jazz16) support" or "Microsoft Sound System support", above, and you need to answer the "MSS emulation" and "SBPro emulation" questions below accordingly. You should say Y to one and only one of these two questions.
