Geez, I've never been able to get sound to work (but I've got a crappy opti931) Perhaps i should give up linux all together? (yeah right:) harry

If I manually inserted the module I got sound from cd and mp3s. Midi was completely broken, period. I installed OSS just to see if that would work, and I got _the_exact_same_results_, cd and mp3 played fine, no midi at all. Apparently there is some sort of problem with /dev/dsp that neither S.u.S.E. 5.1 or 5.2 suffered from.
I can't imagine any change in the distribution that could cause this sort of problem. Probably this is a kernel problem that should be fixed.
This has totally sucked for me, S.u.S.E. linux was a very important part of my life, and today's problems have made me _physically_ill_, I am so stressed over it. BUT I WILL NOT USE A BROKEN DIST. Nothing would make
Judging from the postings it seems to me that this sound problem is the one and only real problem you encountered. If you consider a distribution broken because of one minor issue, there will always be broken dists for you. Ok, you didn't have this specific problem with 5.2 but there have surely been more bugs in 5.2 than in 5.3. Most people could consider any and all Linux distributions broken.
I really would have appreciated you help us fix this particular problem.
Please reply to me directly as I am no longer on the mailing list.
Sad. Live long and prosper ;-) And thank you for all the help you gave to us and others in the last months. -o) Hubert Mantel /\\ _\_v - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
