There are three questions dealing with the Yamaha opl3. One of them is for a full-on card they built called the opl3-sax. This is not the one you want. The one you want is listed under the old ymf 2000 series number. I can't remeber any more details, but this should be enough to get you what you need, especially if you use X or menuconfig... >Thanks a lot. > >Jonathan > -- When you are having a bad day, and it seems like everybody is trying to tick you off, remember that it takes 42 muscles to produce a frown, but only 4 muscles to work the trigger of a good sniper rifle.

If the mpu is not SB16, then what is the op13 and where in the sound section is it? What item did I not turn on? If you hvae a name, because I seem to have mised it twice now... Thanks a lot.

These mostly deal with midi. mpu is "mpu 401 support (NOT for SB)" which is self explanatory why you shouldn't need it, and opl3 is "ymf 2XXX/opl3 support".

I have a SB16 and have succesfully compiled the sound options in the kernel and can hear sound fine. But I saw somewhere someone with the same card having additional modules. My question is, do I need those modules, and if so, where are they in the kernel config section? ie What options do I turn on that I missed in the sound section? I have in modules: sound uart401 sb io... Missing: mpu... op13... Thanks. Jonathan
Re: Sound for woody with 2.2.12
..try su -ing to root and run /usr/sbin/modconf this will present you with a screen not unlike the one encountered when installing potato. use the arrow keys to navigate to "misc".. ..there you will find the modules for soundcards.. ..first select "Sound OSS" (or something similar), then "low-level sound support" (i dont think this is needed for sb16 but i load it anyhow, just to be certain) and finally select the module named "sb.o".. ..and voila, that is.. ..if your SB16 uses the default settings.. compiling a kernel isnt hard at all, aslong as you read the Kernel HOWTO..

Sound for woody with 2.2.12
I want to get sound working on my woody box with kernel version 2.2.12. I was originally slink and a half with kernel 2.2.12. I upgraded to potato and then woody. I have ready numerous how-to's, articles, tutorials, and mailing lists trying to figure out how to get my isa Sound Blaster 16 (mocel CT2291) working. Several things I have read said slink needed sound compiled into the kernel. Other things have said with kernel 2.2, you use modules rather than compile the kernel. I have tried modconf and found no modules related to sound. I found articles on SB16 that say I need modules adlib_card, opl3, sb, sound, and uart401. I did a locate on these names with the .o extension and found nothing. I downloaded sndconfig from unstable which will help configure the sound card but it needs modules loaded, it says, and so does other documentation. So, I guess my questions are: Do I have to compile the kernel? If so, could I replace the kernel with a newer one instead? (I've never done this and would rather wait until I learn linux more before compiling a kernel.) If 2.2.12 does not need recompiling, how do get the modules needed? I've looked at all the packages and find no help there. _ Want a new web-based email account ? ---> http://www.firstlinux.net
