Creative X-Fi external USB sound Card

Hello.
Please how make this hardware working with Asus Wl-500gPV2 and Oleg firmware ?

In dmesg i have this:

Code:

hub.c: new USB device 00:03.1-1.1, assigned address 4 usb.c: not enough configurations usb.c: unable to get device 4 configuration (error=-22) hub.c: new USB device 00:03.1-1.1, assigned address 5 usb.c: not enough configurations usb.c: unable to get device 5 configuration (error=-22)

Exist ipkg package with driver for x-fi soundcards ?
Sorry for my creepy english :)

I don't think there is linux drivers support for creative x-fi sound card in 2.6.24 kernel..

you could try to compile alsa drivers, but there aren't any for this usb x-fi
too bad

Native drivers

I think you don't need any special drivers. My WL500gP works fine with the same soundcard. I play MP3 on it. It uses native (generic) USB-sound drivers.

Try to install something what uses sound, for example "madplay". Then it may say you, what's wrong.

Code:

ipkg update ipkg install madplay

(Or something like this.)

Thanks for help, but:

Code:

audio: /dev/dsp: No such file or directory

What you have installed next ? Or card works out of box ? You have this same model ?

/dev/sound/dsp

Try to find, whether there is /dev/sound/dsp.

Code:

ls -laF /dev/sound

If OK, the problem is solved.

You can simply test communication: connect microphone and speakers to the soundcard. Then write:

Code:

cat /dev/sound/dsp > /dev/sound/dsp

This will redirect input of the soundard to output. You should hear signal from microphone in speakers (with a little delay).

dsp device not exist, this is the problem. Sound card is not detected, in dmesg i have this errors:

Code:

audio.c: v1.0.0:USB Audio Class driver hub.c: new USB device 00:03.1-1.1, assigned address 13 usb.c: not enough configurations usb.c: unable to get device 13 configuration (error=-22) hub.c: new USB device 00:03.1-1.1, assigned address 14 usb.c: not enough configurations usb.c: unable to get device 14 configuration (error=-22)

Something missing, driver or something else, i dont know ..

My dmesg is here, try to comapre. I have flashdisk connected to lower USB and X-fi to higher USB. The log tells about sound-device on more places. My router is WL500g Premium.

Ok, i update all package, with ipkg update and then upgrade.
Sound card is connected to higher usb and external HDD to lower usb.
Reboot and dsp exist in /dev/sound, in dmesg is nothing error.
But still no sound :(
Exist software volume setting or something like this ?

do you have it directly connected to the router or on a usb hub?

Yes, directly. No usb hub, just external hdd and external sound card, directly to the router.
