OK, I know the subject sounds strange. I have a system running 3.0-current as of a couple hours ago. The motherboard is an Intel DK440LX, which has a built in sound card that doesn't seem to work. Sound comes out, but doesn't seem to want to go in at an audiable volume. I tested the Mic on another system, it works. I tried swapping where the mic was plugged in: nada. I finally decided that perhaps the sound drivers on the motherboard were hosed, and to just buy a sound blaster board. So I now have a SB 128, which is the only PCI card there. The problem is, I can't seem to prove that the new board works! % tail -f /dev/dsp > /dev/dsp tail: /dev/dsp: Device busy Trying a game (xgalaga) that is supposed to make sound, well, things are awefully quiet.
