Hi !

Alsa works perfectly at home ( and I'm looking at the lib those days...
).

But a friend of mine has a crappy Maxi Sound 16 IDE card, that doesn't
work at all with the OSS driver, so I tried the Alsa driver.

The driver can recognize it as a sb8. Here's the conf.module section :

alias char-major-14 snd
alias snd-minor-oss-0 snd-sb8
alias snd-minor-oss-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias snd-minor-oss-4 snd-pcm-oss
alias snd-minor-oss-5 snd-pcm-oss
alias snd-minor-oss-12 snd-pcm-oss
alias snd-card-0 snd-sb8
options snd snd_major=14 snd_cards_limit=1
options snd-sb8 snd_index=1 snd_id="sb" snd_port=0x220 snd_irq=7
snd_dma8=3

The mixer proggy works OK ( I was able to check, cause when I increase
the volume,
silence sounds a bit more crappy ;), but I cannot play anything with
aplay.

Can anybody help me fix this problem ?

Thanx in advance.

Rod.
