After reading the posts on this list. And seeing that alot of people recommending the installation of the ALSA sound drivers to get their sound cards working. I decided to install them also and see if they work any better than the default OSS drivers. Well, the install all went well, and I have sound (The Sound card being a Creative Audigy). I decided to run some of my games. The ones which still had sound were games like, Duke3D, UT2K3, UT, Descent 3, and Neverwinter Nights. BUT, when I went to run any of the Quake 3 engine games like, Quake 3, RTCW and ET, they all hung on the initialisation of the sound drivers, and wouldn't go any further. Anyone have any suggestions as to how I might be able to get the sound to work with the ALSA drivers and the games with Quake III engine??? (I have changed the sound port to /dev/dsp1, and the game runs ok, but with no sound.) Quake 3 works fine, with the old OSS drivers.
