by ThanksJames, that partially helped. If made me try again, and I looked at
the man for sndconfig, and found the
--noprobe option. ( It still will not work if it probes. Don't know why.)
I ran it with noprobe, and used your settings, and actually most any of the
combinations worked. It performed a wav test and I could hear the sample.
However, it next attempted to test a midi file, and it failed.
Consequently, the program would not write the configuration into the
necessary config files, so I still have no sound.
The error was: error in running /2.2.9-19mdk/misc/opl3.o init_module:
Device or resource busy.
Any ideas of what I need to do?
Also how are the snd_midi_port=-1 and snd_fm_prt=0x388 set? None of that
appears in the options under sndconfig. Are they just automatic after the
choices are made?
Thanks again
