Thanks Kaare,
A couple of things:
Installed the way you asked and it blew up, saw one splash screen and then nothing. I did remove other versions before installing the rpm's.
Yes, it just so happens that this is usually a sound problem (I've spent extraordinary amounts of time trying to figure all this out)... It turns out that EFFECTS and MUSIC cannot be turned on at the same time (no mixer). So, check out your /usr/share/games/nethack/config/jtp_opts.txt:
\begin play_music=1 #play_effects=1 linux_midi_player=/usr/bin/timidity -idqq %s \end
I just discovered that my sound system is not very MIDI friendly. Timidity and Playmidi does not play anything. They just take up processor time, but no sound. I ran alsaconf and it detected the card fine (Equisonic: ens1371 driver), but when it wanted to play the sample wav file, it also did not produce any sound, just hog the CPU. I had to kill it. Funny thing is, I then started XMMS and played mp3 and ogg files with perfect quality... Very strange. I don't know if the midi problems have something to do with falcon's eye crashing. -- Andre Truter Software Engineer Registered Linux user #185282 ICQ #40935899 AIM: trusoftzaf http://www.trusoft.za.net <-------------------------------------------------> < The box said: Requires Windows 95 or better... > < So I installed Linux > <------------------------------------------------->
