Crass Spektakel

[Log in to get rid of this advertisement]

I use Ubunut 0606 on a intel-810 System (chipset, sound, video, etcpp, all intel 8xx).

All my games run very nice (OpenTTD, Gnome-Games, TyrQuake1) and have no problems with the sound, though I often have to kill the Sound-Daemon esd. Except Quake2.

When playing Quake2 I have lots of soundproblems. With the Ubuntu-Quake2 port I have heavily stuttering sound. With the Icculus Port I had more success - the binaries have stable sound but very bad quality and don't display a target-cross. My own compilation has only the sound-problem:

The sound crackles a lot and has some sort of echo with crackling. All in all not very funny.

I am really not sure what to do next.

Use Jake2. It runs really well, and the sound is perfect. Irun it with the command:

~/Jake2/Jake2_lwjgl.sh -DATI_WORKAROUND=false

In Ubuntu dapper, setting

set snddriver "sdl"
set snddevice "/dev/dsp"

in ~/.quake2/baseb2/config.cfg helped.
