[expert] Sound cards
Hi all trying to get thats friends new pc up and running back to the point the last one was before it got stolen. :( The onboard sound card is not yet supported, so he disabled it and put in a yamaha DS1, which sorta works.. the alsa driver dos'nt support audio input very well. I did have some success with the oss driverI think, as I had it working then it stopped but it was gone midnight and a 30mile drive home. Where I'm confused is which input device to point the applications at, as they use the sound card as an input device then s/w FFT DSP the incoming sound , should I be pointing at /dev/dsp or /dev/audio or /dev/adsp ??? Some advice if anyone else is using this card TIA Richard -- Richard Bown <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

Re: [expert] sound cards
I had to set it up manually on a machine, which is better anyway cos then you use the alsa drivers. Just add: > snd-card-emu10k1 (or similar - i cant remeber exact) > snd-pcm-oss To your /etc/modules It will work, i have one mysself and it works nice, and was autodetected, but like i say, i have installed onj a machine where it wasnt autodetedcted. -- Microsoft is not the answer, its the question. And the answer is no. www.badran.co.uk
