Hello, This is a followup of thread: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-emulation/2006-June/002177.html For several years i've been using freebsd to play many FPS kind of games (RTCW, Enemy Territory, Quakes, etc..) and I always have the same problem with Linux programs running under binary compatibility and /dev/dsp. Virtual channels won't work, whenever a launch a linux program that uses /dev/dsp* any other linux program won't be able to open the device for read or write. I wonder if there is any workaround/fix on this matter. My workaround is always to have 2 sound cards on the machine so I can use for example TeamSpeak and Enemy Territory. Each program will use a different dsp device and it works. TIA -- Alexandre Vieira - nullpt@gmail.com
