AUDIO810 4D "September 12, 2020"
NAME
audio810 - Intel ICH series, nVidia nForce series and AMD 8111 audio core support
DESCRIPTION
The audio810 driver provides support for AC 97 audio controllers embedded in Intel ICH, nVidia nForce, and AMD 8111 chips.
FILES
/kernel/drv/audio810

32-bit kernel driver module

/kernel/drv/amd64/audio810

64-bit x86 kernel driver module

/kernel/drv/audio810.conf

audio810 driver configuration file

ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(7) for a descriptions of the following attributes:
ATTRIBUTE TYPE ATTRIBUTE VALUE
Architecture PC-based systems
Interface Stability Uncommitted

NOTES
Some laptops (including Sony VAIO, among others), have their on-board amplifier powered down by default, meaning that audio is suppressed even if hardware and the audio810 driver are working normally. To correct this, set the ac97-invert-amp=1 property in the /kernel/drv/audio810.conf to power-up the amplifier.
DIAGNOSTICS
In addition to being logged, the following messages may appear on the system console: play-interrupts too low

record-interrupts too low

The interrupt rate in audio810.conf is set too low. It has been reset to the rate specified in the message. Update audio810.conf to a higher interrupt rate.

play-interrupts too high

record-interrupts too high

The interrupt rate set in audio810.conf is set too high. It has been reset to the rate specified in the message. Update audio810.conf to a lower interrupt rate.
