I just install the SB Audigy SE on a Slackware 10.2 machine. All I
get is static when I play a file.
Take it back, its a software thing only. Get an "audigy 2 value" in
place of it, works great. Uses the latest emu10k1 drivers, and must
have alsa-lib-1.0.11rc2-1.i386.rpm (or newer) installed
I had a CM8738 and it was working until yesterday.. so I know my
files are good.
I'm running a server and this is used for our "Hold" music so I
don't have a GUI.
What can I do to clear the static using the commandline?
Thanks
Probably good advice... really what I need is a simple Sound Blaster
PCI 16-bit stereo card. you know ... the $15 cards.... problem
is... no one carries them.
Will, I paid $60 for mine (SBLive value) when it was new many years
ago, but I see stuff from turtle beach for about $30 at circuit city
most of the time, so maybe one of those might work.
I take it the CM8738 didn't pass the borscht test? Thats the acronym
(I think I spelled it right) the telco folks use to describe some of
the simulated lightning strike tests they do on their stuff. Hooking
an audio card up to a phone line without some good isolation
transformers will usually get the stuff 'tested' sooner or later.
Thats a very long antenna to pick up the emp's from lightning strikes
with. Even when its all buried like ours is here in Weston WV it
will eat a modem per year maybe more.
I finally put a stop to all that by getting the biggest, everything
included, wall mounted surge arrestor/short drop cord, and everything
in this room except the local cables & one piece of cat5, goes thru
this thing. In effect, the whole room can bounce 200 kilovolts above
or below ground, but it all bounces in unison and there is no damage.
The surge arrestor keeps everything within about 150 volts of
anything else.
That one piece of cat5 goes out to my workshop so my milling machines
cnc computer has net access. If I think of it, I'll unplug it from
the switch when it gets noisey out, but I've forgotten it enough
times now that it appears to have passed the test. That knocking
sound? Thats me, knocking on wood. :) One shouldn't mock mother
nature, cause thats a dare to her. :(
OK, I called my local pc shop and they have several Sound blaster
cards. Which would work best? Which ones has the fewest driver issues
SB Audigy 2 $65 (new)
SB Audigy Digital $65 (new)
SB Live Platinum $15 (used)
SB Live $15 (used)
SB Live 5.1 Digital $15 (used)
I'm not looking for high-end stuff... this is only for "hold music"
