er machine with a different sound card. I used to run Maelstrom successfully on Redhat 4.1 ( 2.0.x ) kernel, and I think the problem started when I switched to slink. Has anyone seen this problem and solved it? Ian Stirling

mixviews or mix?

1999-11-18 Thread Ian Stirling
for the missing definitions in headers that are on my system, slink with a 2.2.12 kernel. I've looked for the missing files using 'find' in /usr/include and /usr/src/linux/include.
