Id Games and AC97 integrated audio

[techieMoe]

Can you try running them from Gnome?

Or have you enabled ALSA - OSS emulation?

Same issue in Gnome, and yes.

All configured and still having a problem!!!!
Get this message when I select Soundcard Detection from the menu :
Vendor : Intel corp.
Model : 82801EB AC'97 Audio
Module : snd-intel8x0

ERROR :
[root@localhost root]# redhat-config-soundcard
sox: Can't open output file '/dev/dsp': No such device
-9

Can anybody help me out here??

[SnaveZ]

where do I enter that command?

in Wolf? or in Terminal as root?

I tried it both ways and it won't work...

Anyone know of a REALLY EASY fix for this?

If you're referring to the "redhat-config-sound" command, you would run that from a terminal window while logged in as root. What doesn't work when you try that?

ok, I've got the same problem too...

Q3 has had sound for the longest time (never a problem for me) But doom3 is not so much fun when you're a deaf marine. (Seeing as sound cues are important in dark areas and for character chatter...)

And I am running the AC97 stuff too... I'm thinking about going out and buying a $30 Sb live! card, but I'd still like to get onboard audio running.

I kinda want to know what paramater is different in q3 that gives it the audio and not doom3

Oh yeah: Mandrake 10.1

Try this... It worked for Enemy Territory in SUSE.

cd /dev

mv dsp dspold

ln -s adsp dsp

you may need to chmod 777 adsp. I just run as root. I know it's bad, but it's just a play box. I don't know where adsp came from.. It may be a SUSE thing.
