I have a laptop with the Yamaha YMF-744B chipset in it. (The Sony Vaio 505ve
to be exact.) Checking the 2.3.30 kernel, I see it is not supported as of
yet. (Unless I am missing something.)
Is someone working on this chipset at the moment? Is it overlooked? Do they
need docs? The current docset for this chip and a number of others can be
found at http://www.yamahayst.com/pcaudio/download/index.htm . The docs appear
to give enough information to do a driver, but I am not certain not having had
to write one.
The chipsets listed on that page are:
PCI Sound Chipsets:
YMF724F
YMF740C
YMF744B
YMF754
Codecs:
YMF752
FM Sound Generators:
YMF289B
Wavetable generators:
YMF721
ISA Single Chip Audio
YMF715E
Audio DAC:
YAC516
Hopefully this information is of some use. I would like to get sound working
on this little box. ("It's waffer thin!") At least to stop badly written apps
with sound from coreing.
I am willing to help test drivers for the YMF744B chipset, if that will help.
Thanks!
