no sound

[Erico Freitas <ericof@usa.net>]

Hello all,

   I'm new to this list and I'm having a problem with my sound. I've looked at
the howto but I didn't get any clue as to what could have gone wrong.

   First, I've had sound for a while. A few days ago, when I was testing an
MPEG program, I couldn't hear any sound and even after I killed the program
there was no more sound. I rebooted the machine and now I have been getting
strange errors in the log

Here's an exerpt

I don't know what could have gone wrong since it has been working up to a few
days ago. I've exausted my knowledge on the subject and I reach out to this
list.

I should also mention that from time to time I get a possible IRQ conflict
error. I haven't changed the IRQ or added any new hardware. Here's some
relevant info on the system

Linux 2.2.5ac1, glibc system AMD-K6 300 with built in sound on the board
(soundblaster compatible). Any ideas are greatly appreciated

Thanks,
