X-fi Titanium not detected by alsa (but listed in lspci)

Hi,

Here is my problem, hope this will help you...

I was running lucid and had no problem with my X-Fi, working "out of the box".
Then I moved to maverick by reinstalling completely the system...(one time with ext4, second time with btrfs), and the card isn't detected anymore.

It's listed in lspci but not in aplay -l.
The snd-ctxfi module is loaded,
I tried reloading, it worked with no errors reported...but still the card isn't recognized.

The I tried to compile the alsa drivers, I got errors during "make"
=>i've had to modify the file : "pm_qos_params.h" and add :

int pm_qos_add_requirement(int qos, char *name, s32 value);
void pm_qos_remove_requirement(int qos, char *name);

(it seems that this problem occurs to all people trying to compile alsa on Maverick)

After install... it still wasn't detected by alsa

I then compiled and installed alsa's last version from Alsa Snapshot...and it didn't solve my problem either.

Then I compiled my own kernel, one time Maverick's one, from ubuntu repositories, and one time with the last available from kernel.org... both were working but it did not bring my X-Fi back.

I finally tried, despaired, to downgrade all packages that had something to do with alsa (and pulseaudio), back to Lucid version... which didn't work better.

I have no idea of what may cause that problem, at least I tried to provide the "non-working solutions"...hope this helps.

Thanks,
Noar
