But games are not playable with this. Is this a driver-related issue and can I speed up things a little bit (20fps are ok, but those short freezes of my Quake3 are not)? mfg Mischel S aus P Homepage: http://fsinfo.cs.uni-sb.de/~waldi E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: #27995885

Did you make modules, make modules_install? mfg Mischel S aus P Homepage: http://fsinfo.cs.uni-sb.de/~waldi E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: #27995885

If it does not point to the exact device, that can happen. E.g. my cdrom is at /dev/hdc ln -s /dev/hdc /dev/cdrom mfg Mischel S aus P Homepage: http://fsinfo.cs.uni-sb.de/~waldi E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: #27995885

Just use cdrecord. It also does not overburn cd's by default, but it is a command line switch. MfG mIc

Compile the driver for your soundcard as a module. Then you can load this module after system-boot and also unload it (insmod, rmmod). You can give the IRQ as a parameter (suggesting irq=0x08) MfG mIc
