Re: v2.4.14 kernel on Alpha: sound is not working
James
I have PW433/600au (Miata) personal workstations running RH7.1 with kernel
2.4.3. These have sound blaster compatible sound built in. In RH, as root, I
ran sndconfig. I can't remember the settings, but by trial and error, I found a
combination that worked in less than 10 minutes. I think I chose SB AWE and then
played around with the dma/irq settings. You'll have to experiment. Works
great!
