woohoo - so I went and got my fancy little $100 sound card (live was $80, so I got the audigy se for another 20) - an everything works - so NOW... I've renabled my onboard i810_audio/Ac97 chip and aliased i810_audio to sound-slot-1 and sound-slot-0 to emu10k1, I seem to get no erors. I assume sound-slot-0 = /dev/dsp0 and sound-slot-1=/dev/dsp1? However only /dev/dsp is symbolically linked anywhere (/dev/sound/{device}).
I cant figure out how to direct sound to/from either card. I want my vmware to only used the onboard where I can put a mic/headset on and use language learning programs. In vmare I can select either /dev/dsp or /dev/dsp1, but in either case it uses the audigy. Can anyone suggest how I can shuffle sound to/from either soundcard, say from the command line? (both cards show up in gnomes sound mixer) Thanks Glenn On Wed, 2004-03-17 at 17:56, Paul Johnson wrote: > glenn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > > If someone logs into gnome -they own the esd and no one else can get in > > and use sound, even after they log out, unless someone manually kills > > esd deamon.
