Thank you James. I was afraid to hear that and anxious as I am I got a SB
live that works fantastically, even with ALSA.  BTW, I miss my SB AWE32
and its midi capabilities, but it was ISA, so...

Cheers,

You might want to wait for a new cooker kernel and try your luck there
or do what they are doing and upgrade to the latest alsa (I believe it
is alsa rc8a) Seems people are having better luck with this one.

[expert] ALSA + vt8233 = noisy in background

2003-03-05 Thread Alan Wilter Sousa da Silva
Hi List!

I got Alsa 0.9 rc8 working on my MDK 9.0 but when running xmms, or any
other that needs decoding, I got a crap noisy in background.  That also
happened with alsa rc6 which came with MDK 9.0.

My sound hw is Via 8233 AC'97.

I tried OSS (commercial) just to check my hardware and I must say it
worked gracefully.

So I ask specially to the ones who has such sound hw (in my came with via
KM266 chipset) with alsa if they observed this problem and if they were
able to fix it.

Many thanks in advance.
