Can I use audio with the OpenMicroServer?
You can use a USB audio device. We have successfully tested the Creative SBDMUPX. Since sound drivers are not included in the standard firmware, you need to do the following: First, download the OMS firmware from ftp://ftp.plathome.co.jp/pub/OMS400/RELEASE-20070221/mipsel-obs1550/installation/ (or ftp://ftp.plathome.co.jp/pub/OMS400/RELEASE-20070221/mipsel-obs1550.ipv6/installation/, version with IPv6 support) and update it. See the OMS user’s guide on how to update the firmware. Next, download the file kern.tgz from ftp://ftp.plathome.co.jp/pub/OMS400/RELEASE-20070221/mipsel-obs1550/binary/ or ftp://ftp.plathome.co.jp/pub/OMS400/RELEASE-20070221/mipsel-obs1550.ipv6/binary/ . Extract the following files: • ./lib/modules/2.6.16/kernel/sound/core/oss/snd-mixer-oss.ko.gz • ./lib/modules/2.6.16/kernel/sound/core/oss/snd-pcm-oss.ko.gz • ./lib/modules/2.6.16/kernel/sound/core/seq/snd-seq-device.ko.gz • ./lib/modules/2.6.16/kernel/sound/core/snd-hwdep.ko.gz • ./lib/modules/2.6.16/kernel/sound
