I have no idea what so ever. I do know that prior to this, the audio playback would continually repeat segments making the whole sample sound like a stadium echo. I can only speculate that acpi had some effect on how the audio card buffers are managed/interupted. Scott -- Nothing goes to waste when Little Fish are near!

That fixed it for me on 9.2. Of course, then I did something to mess it up again later. Sound can be such a fickle thing sometimes Scott -- Nothing goes to waste when Little Fish are near!

In 9.X I just did without sound But after over a year without sound I think it might be time to find a way to fix it or else get a sound blaster card. I have tried the alternate driver but that just changed the problem to having no sound at all. -- Composed on a 100% Microsoft and windows free computer using Mandrake Linux 10.0 Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
