CS4236

This is a Cirrus Logic Audio controller

Features

  • Chipset: CS4236B
  • Interface: ISA 16bit

Linux OSS driver

This sound chip is supported by the cs4232 kernel module. Use the following options line when loading this module:

options cs4232 io=0x530 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0 

or try this from the commandline:

modprobe cs4232 io=0x530 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0 mpuio=0x330 mpuirq=7 synthio=0x330 synthirq=7

(to get your soundcard working properly: disable QUICKSTART in the BIOS and dont INITIALIZE !)

Linux ALSA driver

This sound chip is supported by the snd-cs4236 kernel module. Use the following options line when loading this module:

options snd-cs4236 snd_index=0 snd_port=0x530 snd_cport=0x538 snd_isapnp=0 snd_dma1=1 snd_dma2=0 snd_irq=5

With kernel 2.6.26 and a Thinkpad 380D, this is another solution:

options snd-cs4236 port=0x534 cport=0x538 isapnp=0 dma1=1 dma2=0 irq=5
