AWE64 ISA works great with alsa, at least alsa 0.5.7 from Woody. I'm actually running a sb16 AND the awe64 in the same computer. Only popping I hear is from power on, but that's unfortunately normal. I'm not using anything midi, though. On Tue, 20 Jun 2000, Félix Almeida wrote: > "Paulo J. da Si

Same here with an AWE 64 value. It happens when I use sfxload do load the midi table to the card at start up. But this only happens at boot time, and not at very boot. The card works perfectly well afterthat. I have this problem for more than a year now, so I believe it goes back to the time I had

I'm using alsa 0.5.7 (from Woody) and an awe64 on one of my machines. The only problem I have like that is a "pop" when the computer powers on. I have had problems with OSS emulation under 2.2.15 and 2.2.16 though, not specific to that particular computer. I'd reccomend using the new alsa package
