hello all, I have an AWE 64 installed on SuSE 5.3. Running Maelstrom with the ``free" OSS that comes with SuSE Linux produces wonderful sound. I wish I could tell you why it's working for me but I'm not that knowledgeable yet. dave -----Original Message----- From: owner-suse-linux-e@suse.com [<A HREF="mailto:owner-suse-linux-e@suse.com">mailto:owner-suse-linux-e@suse.com</A>] On Behalf Of Fred A.

I tried Maelstrom again today.....it's still "busted." It will NOT work with the OSS drivers. I'm surprised a fixed version didn't ship with 5.3.
I'm currently using kernel compiled sound (SB AWE32 PnP), but prior to this I used the free OSS driver which comes with the SuSE 5.2 CD set. With either I've had fine sound in Maelstrom.
I switched to compiled sound when I found out that RealAudio 5.0 would not work with the free OSS which comes with SuSE 5.2.
I have the AWE-64 (ISA), and was unable to get sound compiled as a module or in the kernel, so paid my $20 for the OSS drivers. I notified the writer of Maelstrom sometime ago that it was not compatible with the OSS drivers, but there never was a fixed version, as far as I know.
