hello all, this is going to be a long one I guess: Problem: instaling sound OS: Debian 2.2r3 (all 3 binary CD's) Hardware: yamaha opl sax
What I've accomplished: pnpdump >>/etc/isapnp.conf uncommented the appropriate entries in isapnp.conf (dmesg now show the card detected) added the (again) appropriate entries in /etc/modules (sound-slot-0...,options opl3sa2 mss_io,dma1...dmabuf=1, etc). I swear by those settings (I just copyed them from the previous install -same debian- where they worked -don't ask me what I've done then-); now at boot it sees the card,it tries to initialise it and gives me a bunch of errors that 'mss_io must be set, ...blah-blah...'; I log in, lsmod and it shows all the modules loaded (belive me I've seen the card working and I know that are all) OK, I ignore the errors, install xmms (libesd was installed before -maybe that's the problem?-), select output plugin esd AND IT JUST POPS UP THAT WINDOW that tells me to check if my sound card ...blah-blah. Now, I'm new to debian, although not to linux. I was used to redhat and it allways autodetected it whithout no problem. Am I skipping something that's obvious, or am I doing something wrong?
