When you start madbomber from a shell, do you get any warnings or error messages? Or maybe dmesg has some kernel messages while playing? For example, when I use saytime, on some machines (or maybe just machines running unstable), I receive some output that I did not expect: >saytime Input Filename : /usr/share/saytime/the_time_is.au Sample Size : 8-bits Sample Encoding: u-law Channels : 1 Sample Rate : 8000 Time: 00:00.88 [00:00.00] of 00:00.00 ( 0.0%) Output Buffer: 7.01K I have the feeling saytime is running a little slower, but perhaps it is not. Anyway, I can not reproduce your problem on my machines, I just tried on an AMD64 box with 2.6.16-1-amd64-k8-smp using snd_intel8x0. I am suspecting a kernel problem with the snd_maestro3 driver. You don't by chance have another soundcard you could try? Christian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
