FWIW, I'm currently running testing and kernel 2.6.15-1 on a Sun Ultra 10 with the CS4231 sound chipset. > At the moment, I can see mixers, programs think that they can play > sound, and I do get a nasty distorted noise out of the box, but it > doesn't bear much resemblence to the noise I think should be coming out. > I suspect that the output is being played too fast - if I play a tune in > xmms I can see the track time display moving far too fast > - a 3minute track zooms past in 30seconds or so (but I get exactly the > same distorted output in all players, including alsaplay). These are the same symptoms that I had with a previous 2.6 kernel, although I don't remember which one, other than I believe I skipped 2.6.14. I don't use xmms, but all I got from ogg123, mpg321, and mp3blaster was noise. Sound is working for me again with my current kernel. > I'm using the snd_sun_cs4231 driver.

I never investigated beyond simply changing kernels, so I can't help with this. Regards, Howard E. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
