Hello I've got a problem with my soundcard. It worked when I had a RedHad distribution quite a long time ago, the problem appeared when I installed Mandrake 7.0, and is still here with Mandrake 7.1 When I open an audio file, I get the message ----- kmix : Could not open mixer. Perhaps you have no permission to access the mixer device. Login as root and do a 'chmod a+rw /dev/mixer*' to allow the access ----- Of course, the permission is fine. Using sounddrake 0.6.6, it seems that the soundcard Mandrake detected is : Generic compt. SB I/O (220); IRQ (5); DMA8 (0); DMA16/2 : (0); MPU401 I/O (void) I hear the test sound. BUT: When I select the proper soundcard installed in my laptop Yamaha OPL3-SA2 I/O (530); IRQ (5); DMA8 (0); DMA16/2 : (0); MPU401 I/O (330) (settings are correct, I checked my documentation) If I try to listen to the test sound, I get the message: ----- * /lib/modules/2.2.15-4mdksecure/misc/opl3sa2.o: init_module: Device or resource busy * /lib/modules/2.2.15-4mdksecure/misc/opl3sa2.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.2.15-4mdksecure/misc/opl3sa2.o failed * /lib/modules/2.2.15-4mdksecure/misc/opl3sa2.o: insmod opl3sa2 failed I know my Yamaha soundcard is supported, that it should work, and that it used to work. I don't have the RedHat (version?) anymore. Does anybody know about this problem, or at least what I should check? Many thanks in advance, --Remi
