Re: Via onboard audio

[Sean Middleditch <elanthis@awesomeplay.com>]

Hmm, OK, I downloaded 2.4.13-0.3 RPMs from Rawhide (ya, I'm a wuss, oh
well) and it didn't like my laptop at all.

Sound did work somewhat better...  XMMS didn't skip and freeze, and
cat'ing a wav to /dev/dsp didn't finish immediately (looked like it was
taking time to play, actually), but I still heard no sound.  I *did*
check the mixer, and all the relevant devices are right on up there.

HOwever, 2.4.13 started freaking on me.  My project I was working on
ceased to compile (gcc kept crashing, which it didn't do on 2.4.12), and
when I shut down the machine to reboot into 2.4.12, I saw a bunch of
kernel oops error message, the first of which was the VM, which had
decided to kill "sh".

In any event, I have no clue how to debug a kernel properly properly, so
I don't know what more to say.  Perhaps someone can give me some
pointers?  Or this is a known issue that has aready been rectified?

BTW, I won't be on the list much longer, the traffic is killer.  ~,^  So
please make sure CC's or whatnot have me in them.

Thanks,
Sean Etc.
