hello, had the same problem some time ago with an onboard intel8x0 chip and a soundblaster card, chip [snd-]ca0106 under sarge. it worked like a proverbial russian roulette. tried both chips together out under slackware10.2 as well. got within a few days the same problem. i was not able to solve these troubles, so i disbabled for the time being the intel chip, because the soundblaster sound quality is much better on my machine. so i sustain the request of sjoerd: if somewbody knows a solution for this: please put this on the list. thanx, and kind regards, steef -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
