ES1983 no support #107
Comments
The problem is debugging and testing, I think @jiyunomegami has the 1988 card to test easily. |
I have a laptop with this chip and would be happy to help, are there any guides for this? |
@AranVink Yes. 🙂 Go to release page of the version you'd like to test out, for instance 1.0beta4, scroll down to the TL;DR: Go to the page of the latest release, download the If the laptop you are testing is new enough to support booting from USB, and old enough to have either a legacy BIOS or a UEFI BIOS that still comes with a Compatibility Support Module (CSM), you can then just plug the USB stick into a USB port and boot it. It comes with a FreeDOS installation that loads SBEMU on boot. Curious to hear about your findings. Good luck! 🙂 |
@volkertb I will give that a try somewhere this week, thanks. I think I need to add the PCI ID's if they aren't there already. The code mentions the specific Dell model I have with this chip here: https://github.com/crazii/SBEMU/blob/main/drivers/maestro3/maestro3.c#L1286C16-L1286C17 For the record I have the following 2 laptops with the ESS1983 chip on which I will test:

Did some testing this weekend, but no luck so far. The PCI ID's seem to match what's in the driver: I now have a debug version compiled with some custom logging (the ESS Allegro/Linux Maestro 3 drivers are not so verbose). Will give that a try next week. |

Woops. Completely misread that 1988 to 1998, while looking straight at it 🙈 Unfortunately on both laptops Jill of the Jungle crashes on startup, and digital audio playback hangs the system (Supaplex). Will do some more testing at the end of this week, once I find a way to quickly transfer test binaries over. (None of my laptops support USB boot, so far now it's 💾) |
If OPL emulation works, digital audio should work as well. |
I'll give those a try somewhere over the weekend and report back. More of a general question in terms of way of working: |
My Allegro card has digital out (S/PDIF), but is not supported by the Linux driver. |
Tested and working now on both of my laptops with this chip. SBEMU FM emulation sounds way better than the FM coming from the original ESS DOS drivers. 🎵 I've gone ahead and created a PR for this: |
Can you please update the README with the tested/untested models recently added? |
Hello to the entire community. A query.
Is it very difficult to make the ES1983 chip work in the emulator?
I have already seen that ES1988 has been recently included, but it is not compatible with 1983 or 1983s. :(
ES1983s is installed on all Dell Latitude CP series laptops.
Thank you very much for your work.
