Recently I had to use a temp motherboard while my real one was getting fixed. It had built-in sound. So, I decided to use built-in sound in addition to my Soundblaster 128. It was quite possible. /dev/dsp referred to the onboard sound, and /dev/dsp1 and /dev/dsp2 referred to the Soundblaster. Of course, the on board sound was so crappy, I stopped using it. I don't know if it's similar under ALSA as it was under OSS, though I've had luck with sending things to /dev/sound/adsp. -- Marshal Newrock, unemployed Linux user in Lansing, MI Caution: Product will be hot after heating -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
