[newbie] mandrake 7.2

2000-11-20 Thread chronos0

Hi all,
Now I dont know about you but I have had nothing but problems with 7.2 and alot of you 
have as well judging by the posts. So I uninstalled the sucker and reinstalled 7.1 and 
I am so much happier. I mean dont get me wrong here 7.2 has alot of neato things but 
nothing works. So what good is that ? So anyways I think Im going to stick with 7.1 as 
IT WORKS !  
  Thank you, Chronos.

2000-11-15 Thread chronos0

When I ran the command chmod a+rw /dev/midi it says no such file or directory. So

trying to see if there even installed.

[newbie] sound card again

2000-11-14 Thread chronos0

Again-
How do you enable audio devices ?  What command ?
How do you enable synth devices ? What command ?
How do you enable midi devices ? What command ?
How do you enable mixers devices ? What command ?
I am trying to get the stupid sound card to work.
What permissions ?
Again snd config does not work.
Drak config does not work.
Moving the card to another slot does not work.
Turning off pnp does not work.
I am not a stupid user.
Chronos.

[newbie] sound card

2000-11-14 Thread chronos0

Hi all,
Okay moving the sound card to a different slot does not help. Running drake config 
does not help. Running sndconfig does not help. How do you enable the audio devices ? 
How do you enable the synth devices ? How do you enable the midi devices ? How do you 
enable the mixers devices ? How do you reassign irq ports ? Also getting card config - 
none. Under multimedia audio controller getting interupt 09 conflict. Also the command 
/dev/sndstat says permission denied when logged in as root. Should I ask the "expert" 
group ? As no one has any answers to this stupid problem. Why is sound the arch enemy 
of linux ?
   Thank you, Chronos.
