So here's my problem: I'm replacing my existing test Myth install (FC1, Myth 0.16) which worked fine (both audio and video), but the menus and overall system responsiveness were just so-so.
Installed KnoppMyth 45, everything went pretty smoothly. I'm happier with KnoppMyth than my previous setup in every way, except that I get scratchy audio (Via 82xx onboard). I played with mixer settings over and over trying to fix it without success. I found posts regarding the Via 82xx saying to adjust the dxs_support module option. I tried 1,2,3,4 as options without any resolution. I decided to dump ALSA and go for OSS (I think that's what FC1 used anyway (let me know if that's not true), and audio worked there...). I downloaded the OSS files, installed and ran the test...it produced perfect audio. The docs say to make sure that no other audio drivers or modules are loading, so I checked modules, modules.conf, modutils, etc...to make sure. At first I didn't realize that the OSS driver wasn't loading automatically at boot, so I was trying to run Myth without it loaded, and it complained about /dev/dsp0 (no such device), and I wouldn't get any audio at all...but at least it would still let me see video (albeit silently). Once I realized that the driver wasn't auto loading, I ran 'soundon' to load the driver (it reports good driver loading), then run Myth. This time Myth gives no errors, just locks up the frontend on a black screen, still no audio (and now no video). I know OSS is working, since the test comes out perfect...I know the driver is loading (b/c so far, I'm doing it by hand), but Myth locks up on a black screen when you try to view TV...I have the audio device in Myth set to /dev/dsp0 which is the device that the successful OSS test uses. Any idea what I can do to get this working? Thanks, marty
