Hi all
System here
Mandriva 2007 Gnome 2.16
GMFSK 0.7 pre1
sound cards M-audio delta 66
on board  VIA 8253


Problem:-

Cant seem to get audio routed to GMFSK , it compiled OK as far as I 
know, no errors .
In settings , selecting device /dev/dsp  /dev/dsp1 /dev/dsp2 doesn't 
route audio to the program.
I've determined that /dev/dsp2 is the mic input off the webcam, so that 
can be ignored.
There never seems to be any input directed  from /dev/dsp, bur /dev/dsp1 
has an input even when everything has been muted.
I've had problems trying to get the sound from the TV card which is hard 
wired to AUX i/p on the mobo to route through the digital mixer
to get routed out of the delta 66 breakout box to a diddy little hifi 
system in the shack. So I'm aware that the two cards don't talk to each 
other very well.

Is this behaviour I'm seeing on GMFSK normal , ie displaying garbage on 
/dev/dsp1  ??

Yet I can run winrad using wine to use the delta66 card as the input and 
the VIA 8253 as the output device

the output from lspci -v below

I'm using the envy24 patch bay as well as the alsa control thing.
It used to be easy to determine which dsp was in use by selecting them 
with other software like skype, which now lists devices not by which dsp 
they are connected to, but by a list of device types.

Any help appreciated
