What happens if you 'cat' a wav file to /dev/dsp ? I've run out of ideas now. I used to run Maelstrom on a 75 MHz Redhat 4.1 system successfully. Now the same version of Maelstrom gives broken up sound on my new 500 MHz slink system. The sound was broken up on slink on the 75MHz system too with a MAD16 sound card. Some applications fail like Maelstrom but others work properly and yet Maelstrom used to work. There is something dodgy about the mixer in slink IMHO. Ian Stirling
