Re: [Re: [newbie] Mandrake 7.2 and Sounblaster Live!]
That woudl be a good suggestion if it weren;t for the fact that SB Live is a PCI card, hence it is ONLY PnP. I had the same problem, and found that in Linux the SB Live card and USB use the same IRQ. That problem did not occur in Windows or when I switched back to Redhat ... so .. the one thing I can suggest is to move the SB Live to a different slot to see if ot loads at a different IRQ, If that doesn't get it ... I dunno what to say other than start screaming at the dev guys ... On Tue, 13 Jan 2037, you wrote: Phillippe, Try to go into your CMOS and disable PNP. That could be the culprit. Just a suggestion.

Re: [newbie] Mandrake 7.2 and Sounblaster Live!
Can't change DMA in a SB Live ... it is a PCI, PnP device .. so it is at the mercy of the BIOS. On Thu, 07 Dec 2000, you wrote: euh.. Where can I change those DMA values? "Richard F.

Re: [newbie] Mandrake 7.2 and Sounblaster Live!
Same here - 7.2 was the first mandrake release that found and correctly configured my SBLive ! Value out of the box. Do you have no sound at all ? Have you tried wavs and mp3s ? philomena At 03:10 AM 12/7/2000 -0500, you wrote: I use a Soundblaster Live Value, and had no problems. Mandrake 7.2 found and configured it, no problem.

Re: [newbie] Mandrake 7.2 and Sounblaster Live!
As had posted before .. the reason that it is doing that (depends on your compuiter of course) from what I found is that there is a resource conflict with the USB bus. In my system both sit at 9 and that renders it mostly worthless ... Meaning I will be going back to Redhat. I do not have this trouble in Windows or in Redhat .. so ...back I go ... Anyhow, cheers and good luck ceno At 11:02 PM 12/6/2000 -0600, you wrote: I just installed mandrake 7.2, my first experience with linux, but it seems the sound is not working.
