Are you using the 2.2.17 kernel? 2.4 has trickier soundblaster support than earlier kernels.
I have a sb-16 as well. It compiled properly, you should just need to choose OSS support and the appropriate sb option, it's always worked with the defaults for resources. I found that I needed to add users to group audio for them to be able to use sound, though you could also change perms on the proper device. rick Eileen Orbell writes: > Hi, > > I am having problems with sound.
