Subject:   sound/midi under 2.2.6 choppy with interruptions
Message-ID:  <199807161718.TAA01572@gilberto.physik.RWTH-Aachen.DE>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help

I upgraded my 2.2.5 machine to 2.2.6 and found that sound
has is dramatically degraded. Anyone knowing why that could have happened?

Whenever playing a midi file I hear some milliseconds of pausing.
I bought OSS/FreeBSD (20.00 $) to see if I can quick cure for
the problem by using a different driver but it exposes the same
problems.  I'm using the GUS MAX and never had problems with
earlier 2.2.x and sound.

Now I'm clueless.

kernel config file included (note that the sound drivers are
disabled for the OSS lkms to work).

I'm using drq 3 and irq 12 for the GUS. Well, what;s also new is that I'm
running isdn4bsd together with upgrading to 2.2.6.
