Sound not working
Hi, I've got a bit of a problem with sound on my system. It works in
most applications but not all. As it was Friday I decided to install a
few games and oddly enough sound doesn't work in any I have tried so far
for instance NeverBall and TuxRacer. Now I think the problem might be
that they are trying to use OSS where as I (think at least) am using
alsa. I have installed also-oss as it looked like it might make things
work but no joy. I have included the results of lsmod below if that
helps. Any ideas what might be wrong? Sound is one of those areas that
just seems to be a black art to me.
TIA, Graham
