[snip] > alias sound-slot-0 emu10k1 has it ever worked in linux? what does lspci say for the sound card? Objection! leading the witness: is it an emu10k1 or an emu10k1x If you got it in a Dell system then its a SoundBlaster Live! by creative but never released to the public, which is the 'winmodem' equivalent of sound cards (emu10k1x). If you bought it in a box from some distributor, then its probably ok (emu10k1), and maybe someone else can help you further :) HTH, -- Iain Buchanan <iain@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
