Re: [cobalt-developers] Sound Blaster Card in Qube 3

[Timothy.Lau@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi all,

        I recompiled the kernel with sound as module. it installs and
booted up ok.  I have another linux box running 7.0 that I know this card
works. (SoundBlaster PCI 16) and uses es1371 and soundcore module.

I did depmod -a and modprobe es1371

No Problem, lsmod shows nicely.

cat sample.au > /dev/audio or /dev/dsp doesn't work. Just hangs there. (not
permission issue)

cat /proc/interrupts gives

the %post of the kernel RPM does this for you.  :)
