g'day all - I'm running OSS/Free SB16 drivers with my AWE64 on Linux 2.2.10.
Whenever I try to send anything to /dev/dsp or /dev/audio, I xconsole shows this message: spire kernel: Sound: DMA (output) timed out - IRQ/DRQ config error? (Yes, I've done all the necessary pry-configuration -- isapnp configures the card correctly, and the modules load fine) ... and I recieve no output from my speakers. Many applications cause this same situation, such as grip (a graphical CD player/track ripper). Strangely, however, some applications (notably bb and wine) are able to play sound without any difficulty. This strikes me as somewhat odd. Does it sound like an OSS/Free problem? Should I try alsa or a newer kernel version, perhaps? -- ..Aaron Van Couwenberghe...
