Hi, I have a problem,
I installed RH 5.2 on my system (for the 100th time now) and I've been
trying to get my SB AWE 32 PnP to work... I used sndconfig, and it seemed to
detect it right. It played the sample and closed with no error message. Then
I go start X and I'm perfectly able to play Audio Cd's... When I boot
though, there's two error messages:
            - First it's the sfxload that can't be found (although it's
there, I checked it)
            - Second, the awe_wave.o isn't able to be loaded it says that
the resource
              or device is busy...

That wouldn't bother me, unless I had following problem: Whenever I try to
play an mp3 file, the computer freezes. It didn't do that under Rh 5.1.
Please help me. I also tried to connect to the
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/sound/. directory, but that seems to have been
removed. Please help me.

thanx

Al

what kernel was that ?

If you don't know, then install the latest version (2.0.36) and
try again.

It was Kernel 2.0.36 ... Now I even updated the sndconfig, and the awesfx
and the isapnptools rpm's. It still does it... There's many people that have
the same problem ...

An idea is then to downgrade to the working kernel version. If it
works, then, do a submit this to Alan Cox, the stable kernel maintainer.
