Well, I have a different problem. Whenever I use the OSS driver, all goes well. Xmms, "play", and my CD-player all work perfectly. But when I try to use esd... Well, it plays 1 second and then repeats that second again and again, until I kill esd. > I had a problem getting esd running.

I think that's not my problem, since I was using a SoundBlaster one week ago, and esd was working with it... Anyway, I decided to buy a SoundBlaster. Is anyone interested in my Ensoniq sound card (which doesn't work with esound, but, well, it's still useful...) :-) > Thomas Hood J. -- Jeronimo Pellegrini Institute of Computing - Unicamp - Brazil http://www.ic.unicamp.br/~jeronimo mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
