What does your modules.conf look like? It should have some entries similar to these
alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1 alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss alias char-major-116 snd alias char-major-14 soundcore alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss alias midi snd-emu10k1-synth below snd-seq-oss snd-emu10k1-synth above snd-card-0 snd-mixer-oss snd-seq-oss snd-pcm-oss post-install snd-mixer-oss /usr/sbin/alsactl restore alias /dev/sequencer snd-seq-oss You need to make sure at least snd-seq-oss module is loaded and snd-emu10k1-synth As well as the snd-emu10k1 module Then try loading your sound fonts. It won't say anything on success I think. Then use something such as pmidi to test it like pmidi -p 65:0 yourfile.mid should play out your speakers David On 04 Jun 2003 17:33:56 +1000 Rohan Parkes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Wed, 2003-06-04 at 06:05, David Hunt wrote: > > Have you tryed loading some sound fonts?
