you should probably pull in snd-hammerfall-mem as well. do that as early as possible after bootup, to be sure there's still a large enough chunk of memory available. having a second soundcard installed should not be a problem, i've had up to three cards without any hassle: #alsa native options snd-emu10k1 snd_enable=1 snd_index=0 options snd-ens1371 snd_enable=1 snd_index=1 options snd snd_cards_limit=2 snd_major=116 alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1 alias snd-card-1 snd-ens1371 post-install snd /usr/sbin/alsactl restore pre-remove snd /usr/sbin/alsactl store post-install snd-seq /usr/bin/sfxload /usr/share/sounds/sf2/8MBGMSFX.SF2 #oss emulation alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-11 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1 alias sound-service-1-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-1-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-1-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-1-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-1-11 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-1-12 snd-pcm-oss best, jörn ------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: ThinkGeek at http://www.ThinkGeek.com/ _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
