I've configured my kernel with the gus sound device: controller snd0 device gus0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 12 drq 1 vector gusintr and it's detected at boot as: gus0 at 0x220 irq 12 drq 1 on isa gus0: I know it's working, at least partially, because the 'say' program works fine (converts text to audio and plays it through my GUS). I've installed the voxware network audio package from the 2.1 CD but it doesn't run properly. It exits with the message: could not create audio connection block info and I've traced au to see that it fails to open /dev/dsp 304 auvoxware CALL open(0xf558,0x2,0) 304 auvoxware NAMI "/dev/dsp" 304 auvoxware RET open -1 errno 16 Device busy This happens consistently. Any idea why /dev/dsp is busy? I'm not running any other programs that should have the device open. Please reply to pfaff@mcmaster.ca directly, thanks. -- Todd Pfaff \ Email: pfaff@mcmaster.ca Computing and Information Services \ Voice: (905) 525-9140 x22920 ABB 132 \ FAX: (905) 528-3773 McMaster University \ Hamilton, Ontario, Canada L8S 4M1 \
