problems playing mp3.
hey.
i've recently swapped from using a desktop to using my laptop for
everything. i have sound compilied and it's working fine but i am having a
problem playing mp3 with either freeamp or x11amp (either as a normal user
or as root).
the program loads up, but nothing happens when i hit play. in x11amp you
can see the graphics (the specrum analyzer thingy) flash for a second but it
immediately dies down.
i'm starting to think that i must have sound configured incorrectly but i
can play cd's okay (which i couldn't do before i recompiled my kernel).
any idea's suggestions would be much appreciated. i'm running slink with
kernel 2.2.2.
am i just being stupid?
thanks,
adam.

SB DSP version is just 3.1 which means that your card is several years old
