But I think most of this is applicable to you situation.
I found that Quake3 was wanting to use '/dev/dsp1' and would exit after failing to open this during sound initialization. The alsa docs only refer to an oss emulation mode with dsp1 when using two sound cards. I only have one. Here is what I did to make it work. In '/etc/rc.modules' (or whichever script your distro uses to load modules) make sure you load the oss emulation drivers: /sbin/modprobe snd-pcm-oss /sbin/modprobe snd-mixer-oss Then in '/etc/modules.conf' (I'm posting the entire ALSA OSS/Free emulation section...the last two lines are what I added to get '/dev/dsp1' working): # ASLA OSS/Free emulation setup alias char-major-14 soundcore 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-0-12 snd-pcm-oss alias /dev/dsp* snd-pcm-oss post-install snd-pcm-oss /bin/ln -s sound/dsp /dev/dsp1 -- Paul Ruhland _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes?
