Hello list, I have recently obtained a Audigy2 sound card and am having a few issues with it and I need some help/advice. I installed the card and went to packman's site and downloaded the new ALSA for SuSE 8.2. Installed it and tried to configure my sound card. Well it found it as a Audigy and I heard a pop through my speakers indicating that the system was trying to initialize the card. Tried to play a sound with it and all I got was silence. Well I went to opensource.creative.com and got the drivers there. I was able to compile them and after unloading the ALSA stuff out of the kernel, insert the module into the kernel. Well I got sound! On the next time I brought the machine up, I heard silence. Repeated the procedure again and I have sound once more. So I modified the modunes.conf to load just the one I compiled and not the ones that come with ALSA. This did not work. It looks like that I need the ones in ALSA to initialize this card then install the one I compiled. My question is this, Is there a way to put the 2 togeather so that everything will play nicely? Or am I going to have to do this procedure when I want sound? Any help will be appreciated! -- Marshall "Nothing is impossible, we just do not have all the anwsers to make the impossible, possible."
