I finally decided to give up trying to get my integrated intel 82801ba/bam ac'97 working, so I threw in a Creative Ensoniq AudioPCI card I have. After recompiling the kernel to add support for the ensoniq card, I finally have sound. But I have to turn my speakers almost all the way up to hear it. Is this normal?
I had this card in an older computer and it was the same way with that one. In Linux I need to turn the speakers way up and then when I go back to Windows to play games, my ear drums nearly get blown out from the noise. Since I can't seem to remember to turn down the speakers before rebooting, is there something I can do about this behavior? -- Jason Stechschulte [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- As someone pointed out, you could have an attribute that says "optimize the heck out of this routine", and your definition of heck would be a parameter to the optimizer. -- Larry Wall in <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
