How can I find out what is already using my sound device? Yeah, you got an nforce-based board in it? Stupid, stupid sound chipsets in these ones. Oddly enough, I got a shuttle recently too, and it's a big step back for sound hardware (from an sblive). Use fuser or lsof to find out what has the device open. Sure you haven't got a stray esd process going? :-) - Jeff -- linux.conf.au 2005: Canberra, Australia http://linux.conf.au/ "...and did you know that Twisties have real cheese in them?" - Dave "I didn't even think they had real twists in them!" - Andrew -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
