Subject: GUS anti-noise hack
Date: Tue, 30 Apr 2002 18:21:34 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020430182134.C22103@ghost.cybernet.cz> (raw)

The linux GUS driver sometimes begins to make a white noise in right or left
channel. It is very annoying because it is very remarkable and is there for
every mp3 you listen to.

I have developped a hack how to get rid of it when it happens.

a:

cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp and wait for an audible chirp in the bad
channel. Then try to play some mp3. If noise persists, goto a;

It has worked for me already for two times and I spared myself two reboots :)
