SoundBlaster Live. $99 Worked immediately... after I went into alsamixer and turned up the sound.??????????????? My midi still doesn't work, but I'm hoping to follow the instructions in the 'other' SuSE book. Win a few, loose a few. It really is a good card. Really! If someone has one of these SoundBlaster Live! cards It might help me to see what your modules.conf looks like. I you could mail that to me out of band, I'd greatly appreciate it. I finally got to the point where I felt like this was a distracton. I guess it's more important to put our efforts into the hardware of the future, rather than kill ourselves over retrofitting. Thanks everyone for all the help. And especially thanks to SuSE. You make a great product. But if you can make it, I can break it. Steve

Thanks Matt, Do you know where that snd_max_synth_voices=1024 came from? That seems to be the one difference between our module.confs. I don't have that variable set at all. Are you using sound fonts? Also, does your midi work in the KDE2.1? What is the setting in the MIDI - KDE control module? I'm getting this when I start the MIDI - KDE control module: Console log for nariana Mar 9 21:27:06 nariana kernel: PCI: Found IRQ 15 for device 00:0b.0 Mar 9 22:57:10 nariana modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module snd-card-5 Mar 9 22:57:11 nariana last message repeated 7 times Mar 9 22:57:11 nariana modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module snd-card-6 Mar 9 22:57:11 nariana last message repeated 7 times Mar 9 22:57:11 nariana modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module snd-card-7 Mar 9 22:57:11 nariana last message repeated 7 times Mar 9 22:57:12 nariana modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module snd-card-5 Mar 9 22:57:12 nariana last message repeated 7 times Mar 9 22:57:12 nariana modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module snd-card-6 Mar 9 22:57:13 nariana last message repeated 7 times Mar 9 22:57:13 nariana modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module snd-card-7 Thus far none of my MIDI stuff works. But I haven't put a lot into *this* card. I'll try that setting you have, and also try following the book. They seem to be using the SB Live! card as their basis. Steve
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Oh that, I set that variable with Yast2, its the maximum number of voices that the card can do. I believe it was 1024. I have little idea what it does, just remember when the Live! card was first released everyone was saying how many voices it could do, guess I just went with the flow...

Sorry, having a bad day (I will not even mention my journey home...). Unfortuantly I do not have the information for the MIDI device. Even trying Yast2 did not help. Might be worth trying the Alsa-project mailing list, I had very good luck getting my joystick working, so they should be able to help with this. I have noticed many sound related topics that went way over my head... Matthew On Friday 09 March 2001 20:05, Steven T. Hatton wrote:
