I wish I could :(
I have an Ensoniq AudioPCI soundcard...
in fatc that Soundcard is a good amount of why I finnaly
decided to stop running linux onm my server and WIn95 on my "Workstation"
and just go completely linux...
cuz AudioPC "DOs Mode" drivers are incompatible with the AMD K6
processor (fixed in a letter processor stepping)
which means I oculdn't play Quake :(
(eventually I will get a new soundcard but...I have other priorities)
