Re: awe64 not initializing on 2.2.2

As luck would have it, that did the trick.  The module loads, and all
is fine.......but one problem remains.  /dev/audio outputs garble when I
send something to it, like a wav file.  KDE's systems sounds all come
through clear, so I assume that it sends its output through something
else?  Is there something that needs to be done with /dev/audio?

  btw, this is a redhat 5.1 box with an isa pnp soundblaster 64.
