I have followed this thread carefully since I have had some minor problems with sound. Xmms and cdplayer work fine. I've updated my BIOS after reading about the VIA problem. Epox 8KTA2 Motherboard, VIA KT133A + VT82C868B, Duron 800, 256 RAM, 20G WD HD WD hardrive (lucky me - I had even special ordered it!), no soundcard, LITEON 1610B CDRW (works fine), LM 8.0. Dmesg excerpt: "via_audio: ignoring drain playback error -11" Before update: This message is repeated 3 times in a row, with three separate occurrences of it. After update: Four occurrences of the message in groupings of 3 repeats. Any idea what this error message means? I cannot find any reference to it. (Btw, my CDRW burns at full speed both CD-R and CD-RW.) This is my second post to the board. If I wish to reply to someone, should I post to them or to the list as I have done here? The info here is great: I've learned so much - thanks! Regards, Andre.
