Greetings, Let me start my question over again. I have switched to the gnome desktop. I am trying to play a CD with the gnome CD player, or with XMMS. I have a DELL Dimension 4400 which came with an Integrated ADI 1885 chip. The lspci command identifies the Multimedia audio controller as an Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM AC'97 (rev 05) (This may make sense if ADI chip has been integrated onto a motherboard made by Intel....) I have a DVD player (/dev/cdrom) and a CD R/W (/dev/cdrom1).
When I try to play audio with the gnome CD player, the player seems to think that it is playing - but I cannot hear anything. Same thing happens with XMMS. XMMS load files button does not see any files on the CD. If I put the CD in the DVD slot, XMMS load files button seems to see some audio files, but again when the XMMS seems to think it is playing the CD - there is no sound. The sndconfig utility identifies the audio card as the Intel 82801, and plays an audio clip of a man saying that he pronounces Unix as Linux. The quality of that sound clip is very poor, but it is coming out of the speakers. Has anybody resolved this kind of issue? Matthew Sacks 603.891.4194 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Patrick J.
