I have been fiddling around with getting audio going today and have run into a snag. I am using a Hitachi C-120 laptop that has a Sound Blaster 16 compatible board. I have compiles the kernel to support it and such, but I am getting devide busy when tkdesk tries to us an .au file. Also, when I try to cat an .au file to /dev/audio all I get is a faint clicking noise from the speakers.
The output from cat /dev/sndstat follows: Sound Driver:3.5.4-960630 (Sun May 10 16:39:07 EST 1998 root, Linux suse 2.0.33 #7 Sun May 10 16:10:17 EST 1998 i586 unknown) Kernel: Linux suse 2.0.33 #8 Sun May 10 16:41:26 EST 1998 i586 Config options: 0 Installed drivers: Type 2: Sound Blaster Card config: Sound Blaster at 0x240 irq 10 drq 1,1 Audio devices: 0: ESS ES1688 AudioDrive (rev 11) Synth devices: Midi devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG Timers: 0: System clock Mixers: If you notice, there is a Sound Blaster entry under installed drivers and under Card config, but not under Audio devices. It shows the ESS, which also shows up in the boot messages. Any ideas? Thanks, Michael 0: Sound Blaster -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
