Hi, apparently the es1371 has two PCM interfaces. If they are both supported by the driver, maybe you can point either dosemu or timidity to /dev/dsp1 and thus get both sound effects and music. I don't have such a card, so I don't know if this works, but the Documentation/sound/es1371 file in the kernel sources suggests that it may work. Cheers, Rob Komar P.S. The sources to Duke3D have been released and you can build a version that runs natively on Linux that performs better than running it in dosemu (see www.icculus.org), and doesn't need separate sound and music channels. However, you will need dosemu to play the other great BUILD-based games (Redneck Rampage, Shadow Warrior, Blood,...). Thank goodness dosemu works so well. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-msdos" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
