Re: [Cooker] 9.0: firewall too strict

Re: [Cooker] VIA686a sound problems
What is this BULL* via sound drivers create more problems than they solve the fact is there is a problem with interrupts with these chipsets. I love Linux and use it every day. The best way is to use a decent soundcard (sblive etc..) works fine !! (accounting pracitce in PARIS) I have found serveral workaround for the via drivers but it depends on which kernel you are using.. you can call me on +330146062265 As an installer of linux systems I have noticed most of the promblems is due to bad hardware Michal Bukovjan a écrit: > Adam Williamson wrote: > >> On Wed, 2002-10-02 at 18:12, Michal Bukovjan wrote: >> >> >>> ALSA modules, which worked for a long time for me, seems broken >>> after I enabled those by hand.
