Sound Blaster 16 problems on SuSe 7.31
I have a sound blaster 16 ISA card which works fine under windows, but I
can't make it work properly on linux.  The card does work the first time I
boot the system right after the linux installation. But as soon as I restart
the system the sound stops working.  During the boot up process I see a line
that says something like "initializing snd-card-sb16" and "Done" on the
right side of the screen with green letters.  If I try using the YaSt 2
setup program it recognizes the card, but during the sound test there is no
sound. It supposedly starts ALSA during the boot up process but that doesn't
seem to do any good.  I'm a total newbie to this linux world so if you can
help me please be as descriptive as you can. Thank you in advance.

Konqueror and Opera can both do that.  Or just use Netscape.  Are you
saying your bank won't work with 4.77?  Seems a bit odd that they
wouldn't support a browser with the share that NS 4.7 still has.  Maybe
you need to find a smarter bank.


> and supports the full set of plugins available for Windows, 

There is a working Flash plugin (working on NS, Opera, and Konqueror)
That'll cover about 90% of the sites that need a plugin.  For the
others, well, I guess you'll have to ask the plugin makers about that.

Personally, I browse with plugins and Java disabled most of the time. 
Maybe I'm not having the full "web experience".  Oh well.  I do own a
TV if I want to get a full bullshit experience.

Sounds good to me, but how do I prevent my kid from ordering dinner for

Are there gays coming to your house to do demonstrations?  What do you
mean by this statement?

And you are surprised that people don't take kindly to being classified
as "immoral" so they can be discriminated against?

The point of telling them about homosexuality isn't to make converts,
it is to let kids who think they might be gay know that they are not
the only ones who feel that way.  The rate of suicide among gay teens
is quite high.  Do you suppose being told how immoral they are might
have anything to do with it?

They only count the Blue Screen of Death as a crash.

If their OS skips the BSOD, then Mafia$oft doesn't count it as "a crash"

Obviously, Chomyszen is a pointy-haird-boss, not an IT professional.
