PS As has been said before, the Ensoniq based SB cards can be a trifle uncooperative! There are several versions of them, and the drivers do not seem to be interchangeable. I have one here that was working when I transferred it to the Mandrake 9.0 box which was then unable to see it. I solved the problem by getting a SB Live card. By the way, I haven't been able to get the 128 working on a Windows box again either! I'm about to try the 4th set of "SoundBlaster 128 PCI" drivers. Don't take it personally.
Ian We regret to announce that in the interests of economy the light at the end of the tunnel has been turned off. ----- Original Message ----- From: "lewis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, April 01, 2003 11:22 PM Subject: Re: lspci command doesn't work [was]: Re: [newbie] Sound Blaster sound card not detected On Tuesday 01 April 2003 11:07 am, et wrote: > On Tuesday 01 April 2003 11:51 am, Frans Ketelaars wrote: > > On Monday 31 March 2003 03:24, lewis wrote: > > > On Sunday 30 March 2003 06:06 pm, Frans Ketelaars wrote: > > > > On Monday 31 March 2003 01:29, lewis wrote: > > > > > On Sunday 30 March 2003 04:10 pm, Frans Ketelaars wrote: > > > > > > On Sunday 30 March 2003 23:33, lewis wrote: > > > > > > > On Sunday 30 March 2003 03:18 pm, Stephen Kuhn wrote: > > > > > > > > On Mon, 2003-03-31 at 07:14, lewis wrote: > > > > > > > > > Sorry.

I tried this command and it said: No such file or directory. A friend was wondering if you need a bridge in the hardware. Does anyone have any idea? I do have sound in the windows partition. Thanks.
