Kernel: 2.6.15-1-486 Distro: Etch Soundcard: Sound Blaster Audigy SE chipset: CA0106 I'm using the alsa-driver from Debian, and I have installed alsa-base and alsa-utils and alsa-libs > are you using the right chip? if you read the adequate webpages on the > alsa-website you can see that different soundblaster_cards need > different chips. maybe that is the problem? > > I myself prefer to compile/install the driver-source (--tar.gz) as root > in/from the directory /usr/source/alsa directly into the kernel. that > works only if you install your kernelheaders and get rid of a small > 'lockup-file' within lib/modules/kernel &&. > install as root alsa-libs and alsa-utils as well. on this way I got a - > really good!- sound immediately out of my soundblaster-card. the > on_board intel8x0 sound chip seems to confuse, when turned on *together* > with the soundblaster_card, my audio_programs. that 's the reason i > turned it off.
