Hello,

I have a Dell Dimension PC with a Turtle Beach Montego II A3D PCI sound

card running Linux.
I downloaded the drivers from http://linux.aureal.com/ (v. 1.0.5) second

public release.
Then I uncompressed, untared, went to the directory, typed "make
install" (for a 8830 model).
And ... no sound. The makefile generates one error at the end, but just
iggnores it. So I guess
it's a non-fatal error.

Is there a way to check my installation ? my sound configuration ? I
must say I'm totally at using
sound under Linux.

Thanks if you can help at all.

Have you compiled sound support into the kernel as a module? I did that,
then installed the driver and everything works fine.

I have a Dell Dimesion XPSR450 with Turtle Beach Montego A3D sound
card (Aureal AU8820 chipset). I am running RedHat Linux 6.1 with
the 2.2.14 kernel (which I compiled back in early February). A few
questions:

1) How can I determine if the kernel has been compiled with sound
support?
2) Will the Aureal 1.0.5 driver work with the AU8820 chipset?

Where did you find the Aureal 1.05 driver? I just checked on Aureal's
website but couldn't find it. I have TB Montego II and am looking for a
driver for Linux.

When you compiled the kernel, did you select "Y" for sound support, or
"M"?
It should be "Y". Also you need booth OSS support options set to "Y",
and everything else set to "N".

Quote:> 2) Will the Aureal 1.0.5 driver work with the AU8820 chipset?

Yes. Do "make install20" as per the instructions. Read said instructions
and the
feedback from other users on linux.aureal.com (which will tell you how
to clean up
existing or failed installations to avoid problems).

"should be" is not being used in the correct english sense. You mean "will
be" or "would be". There is no m*or authorative compunction to
compile OSS support into the kernel! Life will be better if it is a
module.

:> 2) Will the Aureal 1.0.5 driver work with the AU8820 chipset?

Thanks for info. Never seen an aureal so know now't.

I tested the driver out on my Montego II and it seems to work for the
microphone, CD sound, but I couldn't get wave to work.
