[newbie] Paul (...) Sound Card Configutation

You could do a search for the opti number on Google.com. Perhaps there is a site where you can find more info. The chipset used is the same as used on the Mozart 16bit card, and the specs for the Midiport are probably off in this set. 0x0 would mean that the midi port is configured on port

[newbie] Paul (...) Sound Card Configutation

Hmmm.. ?? You mean that while configuring the card with sndconfig, you can hear the midi sample that is played? Very weird... Paul YES! THAT'S IT! I can hear the man talking and then the midi sample (freq up then freq down) but when I exit he says: "Invalid midi port 0x0" dont i need to

[newbie] (...) Sound Card Configutation

That card is running in PNP mode. The only thing I can tell you to do is the following to see if it works. Type this at the console: pnpdump Your soundcard should show up on there: Then do this: pnpdump /etc/isapnp.conf then, isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf REBOOT and see if it works.

Re: [newbie] (...) Sound Card Configutation

Ok now we got some info. On the network card you have to use the ne2k-pci module for it to run. You can set that up in linuxconfig. I'm looking into the sound card. --- Original Message --- "Krulo" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wrote on Sun, 12 Nov 2000 12:39:04 - -
