Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory problems
Hey all, me again ;) SuSE 8.2, fresh install, all updates done. Downloaded the *FANTASTIC* Wolfenstein ET, and love it, except for the following niggles: 1) I can't get joystick support to work AT ALL in 8.2 [sound/gameport is a Via 8233 onboard]. It worked in 8.1, and 8.0, but it won't let me configure a joystick on the soundcard setup in YaST. If I try the joystick setup, it complains that I don't have a soundcard that supports joysticks [sorry for the paraphrasing, i am doing this from memory] and would I like to configure one. 2) My sound isn't working in ET. If I kill artsd I still get no sound. Any thoughts, hints, tips and suggestions are welcome. So please, heeeeelp :) BTW I *love* the new KDE screensavers :)))) Eye Candy MmMmMmMm

Interesting.. I've been playing ET for about 2 or 3 hours today on 8.2 with no problems at all. What sound card? AC97? Does sound work on other apps? BTW, I have a SBLive5.1, running artsd, and have game sound set on highest quality... works a treat too. C.

Yes, sound seems fine on other things - I listen to BBC7 online radio via realplayer, listen to MP3s via xmms [and CDs too], and even downloaded aglaophone which worked nicely too.
Hmm, some info from /proc that may help (long, but may help) and if you want anything else, let me know: jeffels@sakura:~> cat /proc/devices Character devices: 1 mem 2 pty 3 ttyp 4 ttyS 5 cua 7 vcs 10 misc 13 input 14 sound 29 fb 81 video_capture 109 lvm 116 alsa 128 ptm 136 pts 162 raw 171 ieee1394 180 usb 195 nvidia Block devices: 1 ramdisk 2 fd 3 ide0 7 loop 9 md 22 ide1 58 lvm jjeffels@sakura:~> ls /proc/asound/ -ls total 0 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 2003-06-21 16:59 8233A -> card0 0 dr-xr-xr-x 5 root root 0 2003-06-21 16:59 card0 0 -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 2003-06-21 16:59 cards 0 dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2003-06-21 16:59 dev 0 -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 2003-06-21 16:59 devices 0 -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 2003-06-21 16:59 meminfo 0 dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2003-06-21 16:59 oss 0 -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 2003-06-21 16:59 pcm 0 dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2003-06-21 16:59 seq 0 -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 2003-06-21 16:59 timers 0 -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 2003-06-21 16:59 version jjeffels@sakura:~> cat /proc/asound/devices 0: [0- 0]: ctl 17: [0- 1]: digital audio playback 16: [0- 0]: digital audio playback 24: [0- 0]: digital audio capture 33: : timer jjeffels@sakura:~> cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [8233A ]: VIA8233A - VIA 8233A VIA 8233A at 0xe000, irq 5 jjeffels@sakura:~> ls /proc/asound/card0/ ac97#0 ac97#0regs id oss_mixer pcm0c pcm0p pcm1p jeffels@sakura:~> cat /proc/asound/card0/ac97#0 0-0/0: Avance Logic ALC101 Capabilities : DAC resolution : 16-bit ADC resolution : 16-bit 3D enhancement : Realtek 3D Stereo Enhancement Current setup Mic gain : +0dB [+0dB] POP path : pre 3D Sim. stereo : off 3D enhancement : off Loudness : off Mono output : MIX Mic select : Mic1 ADC/DAC loopback : off Extended ID : codec=0 rev=1 AMAP DSA=0 Extended status :

In regards to 1) you need to load the midi/gameport driver also; MPU-401 Check in the comments at http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php3?company=VIA&card=&chip=via8233a&module=via82xx. I got a Turtle Beach Santa Cruz and then found this info for my embedded Via8233. Stan
