I'm new to Linux and have a new RH 5.1 installation on an Intel machine. I'm having difficulty getting my ESS1868 soundcard working. I have not re-built the kernel for sound support, but for some reason, I thought that soundcard kernel was built during my installation. After checking, the support seems to be there. I also got another person's /etc/isapna.conf who has the 1868. Here is the information I have: The output of "cat /proc/interrupts": > 0: 1088645 timer > 1: 3222 keyboard > 2: 0 cascade > 3: 23826 + serial > 4: 15589 + serial > 5: 2 sound blaster > 8: 1 + rtc > 13: 1 math error > 14: 9980 + ide0 Here is the output of "isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf": > Board 1 has Identity 27 ff ff ff ff 68 18 73 16: ESS1868 Serial No 4294967295 >[checksum 27] I looked at the Sound-HOWTO again and did "cat /dev/sndstat": > Sound Driver:3.5.4-960630 > Kernel: Linux dexter 2.0.34 #1 Fri May 8 16:05:57 EDT 1998 i586 > Config options: 0 > > Installed drivers: > > Card config: > > Audio devices: > 0: ESS ES1688 AudioDrive (rev 11) > > Synth devices: > 0: Yamaha OPL-3 > > Midi devices: > > Timers: > 0: System clock > > Mixers: > 0: Sound Blaster When I do a "cat train.au > /dev/audio", I hear a click on my speakers, then a constant annoying tone which does not stop until I re-boot. BUT... when I dump the start up log with "dmesg" I see: > Soundblaster audio driver Copyright (C) by Hannu Savolainen 1993-1996 > Sound: Fatal error. Audio interrupt after freeing buffers. So there is something at boot time that is failing.
