[gentoo-user] sound question
I have a Dell inspiron 8600, with Intel 82801 sound card. Sound works great with kde, and actually everything except realplayer and macromedia flash. This really has me baffled. Mike -- Michael W.

[gentoo-user] Sound question.
Hello All, I notice that on my laptop, my KDE startup sound is quite garbled. (Only when starting up). Im guessing that this is due to heavy resource use. I was wondering though, how I could go about giving Arts or whatever it is, a higher priority at boot so it doesn't sound so bad. On the topic of sound, Audacity gives me an error when loading, but only in KDE (not FluxBox). The error is: There was an error initializing the audio i/o layer. You will not be able to play or record audio. Error: Host error. Again, this doesn't happen in FluxBox, but as I prefer KDE, I really would like audacity to run.

Guess: * you have a soundcard which does not support hardware mixing. If it's an AC '97 compliant chip, it is * arts is running and blocks the device * Therefore Audacity cannot start Three solutions: * Kill arts before starting audacity (try 'artsshell -q terminate') * Create an asoundrcfile including the DMIX software mixing plugin * Install ALSA 1.0.9 which has softwaremixing enabled per default Best regards ce -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
