G3 Powerbook sound problem

[Pablo Gil <lakesis@rastafurbi.org>]

Hi everyone!

I'm trying hard to make the sound work correctly on my Pismo laptop. I
have gnome 2.8 and 2.6.8 kernel version installed.

Here is the kernel config:

#
# Sound
#
CONFIG_SOUND=m
CONFIG_DMASOUND_PMAC=m
CONFIG_DMASOUND=m

#
# Advanced Linux Sound Architecture
#
CONFIG_SND=m
CONFIG_SND_TIMER=m
CONFIG_SND_PCM=m
CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER=m
# CONFIG_SND_SEQ_DUMMY is not set
CONFIG_SND_OSSEMUL=y
CONFIG_SND_MIXER_OSS=m
CONFIG_SND_PCM_OSS=m
CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER_OSS=y
# CONFIG_SND_VERBOSE_PRINTK is not set
# CONFIG_SND_DEBUG is not set

#
# ALSA PowerMac devices
#
CONFIG_SND_POWERMAC=m

The problem is that when I run apps such as mpeg123, mplayer or totem
sound works well but when I run xmms or beep-media-palyer it doesn't.

Also, when i try to access gnome-volume-control an error message says
that there are no mixer devices or elements (more or less, I'm
trasnlating the error from spanish).

I've triied installing some libraries (Xmms complained about libmikmod)
but I can't get the sound working whenever I want. I don't know if it is
a kernel, X or whatever problem...

Thanks for your help
