Thanks, I'll try it out when the CD's are back here. On Tue, Jun 01, 1999 at 04:39:29PM -0400, David Bellows wrote:

Alternatively, maybe there's another audio CD player software within the suse distrib that will work with no changes.

I don't know what the problem might be, but I've always used and liked Xmcd - since you asked for other suggestions. Also, Xmcd has cddb look up whereas workman doesn't seem to.

Well, I haven't deliberately loaded sound. I'm using a very stock suse 6.1 kernel for my SCSI (Buslogic) system (no sound card). Do you know what module(s) to load to get workman and his ilk to 'work'? The modules loaded at the moment (automatically at boot) are 3c59x, dummy0, serial, memstat. I peeked at /proc but don't really know where to look for sound stuff there. In /usr/src/linux/.config when I grep for 'sound' I get this: # Sound CONFIG_SOUND=m # CONFIG_SOUND_ES1370 is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_ES1371 is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_SONICVIBES is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_MSNDCLAS is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_MSNDPIN is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_OSS is not set So it looks like I *could* load some sound fcns, if I just had the right incantation. Any ideas? (The bigger question still remains: I need an overview of how audio is supported in Linux 2.2, any references appreciated.) gp On Wed, Jun 02, 1999 at 08:14:25AM +0200, R. Johnels wrote:

Sounds like (Pardon the pun) llike there is no support for sound in the kernel. Have you loaded the sound module (or have kernelsupport compiled)?
