By default, I set all my systems up with Alsa for sound now. I started doing it for cards that were having problems, usually with the esd sound daemon of Gnome not letting go of the sound card when a user would log out, then the next user would have no sound. Now I set up Alsa everytime and haven't had a problem since. You might want to give that a try. I usually just make a dir /usr/src/alsa and compile from there, then make a copy of my /etc/modules.conf file, then make the necessary changes for the Alsa stuff, all of which can be found for just about any sound card at <A HREF="http://www.alsa-project.org">http://www.alsa-project.org</A> . I do it this way because if it for some reason doesn't work or makes no difference, I can always just copy back the copied /etc/modules.conf file and all would be as it was before. Alsa has not let me down yet. That may be all you need for the added functionality your looking for.<BR>

at around 10pm I got NWN working under Linux, had to follow the FAQs very
closely. Permissions was HUGE. But it ran and I was playing at 1024X768 with
all video options enabled. VERY fast and very cool (I have a 128MB GForce).
Stayed up way too late running my little halfling thief around picking pockets
and getting into mischief...
Now I just have to get EAX sound working, anyone know if this is supported
under Linux? It is an in game sound option but the in-game EAX related menus
are greyed out. My assumption is that the game does not recognize a
Sounblaster Live is installed? I have sound but it's standard 2d / 3d emulated
sound.
Jumped on Efnet #nflug this morning to test my BitchX install under windows,
Hey I may have to use Windows at work but I can still feel subversive by using
BitchX HEHE ;-)
Talk to ya'all later (as long as NWN doesn't kill me first.)
