Re: emu10k1 troubles...
Thanks for all your help so far, now just one more question. When I
installed aumix-gtk it did not create a /etc/aumixrc file. When I run aumix
it does create a /HOME/.aumixrc but no comments. Which I guess is fine. And
I figured out my CD audio and TV card problem I have to set them to record
or capture depending on which mixer I am using but I can't find a way to set
them both at the same time I can only do one or the other anyway to fix this
or do I just have to live with it. Sorry for sounding like a newbie I have
been using Linux for about 4 years but sound cards have always given me
problems and I don't know why:)
Thanks
Brad
