by Hey there. I've been flying between distributions and it seems as if I
have finally settled on SuSE 6.0. However, this requires a bit more
configuration than my last distro, RedHat 5.2. Case in point, my
soundcard - an AWE 64.
In RedHat 5.2, it was able to play mp3's, wav's anything all at once.
However, after spending 5 hours straight yesterday trying to get sound
in SuSE, I finally found my way to opensound.com. Ok, works great - but
when I start up x11amp - that's all I hear. Damn! So how the hell do I
get it like it was before?
Config Info:
Just installed latest trial OSS dirver from opensound.com
Running Kernel 2.2.4 with Sound card support as modular (could this be
the problem? OSS is also modular, but I just got the new one. And
shouldn't I not even need the damn trial OSS if I've got kernel 2.2.x.
That's what the deal was with redhat).
That seems to be all the pertinent info.

Remove _NOSPAM- to e-mail directly to me.
p.s.
In case you're wondering, I have tried isapnptools, pnpdump and all
that. Have read the Sound HOWTO, have read the AWE64-Mini-HOWTO, have
re-compiled the damn kernel I dunno how many times, etc, etc, etc. I
just want multiple sounds again and don't want to have to install RedHat
again to get 'em! <G>
