Anybody got the old Soundblaster demo, fmorgan, to work? How,
which hard/software, what tricks?

My first Soundblaster (1991 or so) came with a lot of demos. They
are nice tests for the sound capabilities of dosemu. My results so
far:

Sbtalker (reads English texts, from a text file, aloud): works

Dr. Sbaitso (Eliza-type "psychiatrist" program): crashes when I
use kernel 2.2.18 + OSS, works OK with kernel 2.4.16 + ALSA

Talking Parrot: works somewhat; speed is too low, pitch is too
low, there are gaps in the sound

Fmorgan: does not crash, appears to work, but no sound

Playcmf: does not crash, appears to do something, but nothing audible

This with dosemu 1.1.4, Sound Blaster 128 PCI (Ensoniq 1371) sound
card. I'd especially like to get fmorgan to work.. suggestions,
anyone?
