hello

i try to bring to work a rme hammerfall 9636 pci-card on debian but without success.

each time I want to start pd i got a system freeze also when I start pd as user (not root) !!!

• debian linux 2.4.18bf2.4 on pentium III

• no alsa installed

• pd 0.36-test9 compiled without alsa and without rme support. works fine when started with '-noaudio -nomidi'

• installed Günther Geigers rme96xx driver

lsmod:

Module Size Used by 3c59x 24616 1 rme96xx 12556 1 soundcore 3204 2 [rme96xx] apm 9116 1 . .

maybe somebody can give me some advice what I have to change or check out.

Is there a way to test the driver and the card without pd? the mixer does not recognize the soundcard.

rmectrl is working but when I try to open it asking for status it can't open the mixer: 'mixer device /dev/mixer1 opening device failed'

xrmectrl does not work! (Error in startup script: child process exited abnormally while executing ...)

thanx a lot for any help philipp
