I won't bet on sound, since I often use it for mp3 playing and I have no error messages from the kernel while doing it (even if xmms crashes with some mp3 files, it's xmms's fault cause the same files play beautifully with mplayer, i'll submit this issue to the appropriate ML). The kernel complaints only when I play video files, here's a bit more info about my system sunseeker:/home/nenno# uname -a Linux sunseeker 2.4.21 #1 Thu Aug 7 20:30:12 EDT 2003 sparc64 GNU/Linux sunseeker:/home/nenno# lsmod Module Size Used by Not tainted ide-cd 33104 0 (autoclean) cdrom 29064 0 (autoclean) [ide-cd] openprom 5104 0 (autoclean) cs4231 21712 0 audio 23568 2 [cs4231] sunseeker:/home/nenno# cat /proc/dma 4: cascade A selection from /var/log/messages [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat dmesg.txt Aug 19 19:04:17 sunseeker kernel: PROMLIB: Sun IEEE Boot Prom 3.15.2 1998/11/10 10:35 Aug 19 19:04:17 sunseeker kernel: Linux version 2.4.21 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 3.3.1 20030728 (Debian prerelease)) #1 Thu Aug 7 20:30:12 EDT 2003 Aug 19 19:04:17 sunseeker kernel: Calibrating delay loop... 665.19 BogoMIPS Aug 19 19:04:17 sunseeker kernel: Memory: 254112k available (2504k kernel code, 576k data, 184k init) [fffff80000000000,000000001ff3a000] Aug 19 19:04:17 sunseeker kernel: PCI: Probing for controllers.
