Pardon my ignorance, but how would I do that?
Perhaps some more information would be helpful... I have a conexant chipset,
and until recently the OSS output from the game worked just fine. I don't
know what I've changed in the meantime, but it has been quite a while since
I played that same game. I'm using Ubuntu Feisty, and AFAIK I'm using the
stock ALSA/Kernel, but I'm not sure. It really has been months since I
played the game...
