sound problems
 

Hello,
everything with sound was ok till i tried to run quake2 :)
this is what i get when i run it:

------- sound initialization -------
/dev/dsp: Broken pipe
Could not toggle.
Segmentation fault

i have no idea what's wrong, can anyone help me a little?:)

Re: sound problems
 

try running quake with root.
I wud also suggest u start playing quake3,, 2 is outdated now

I tried it with root also -- same.
First i have to run quake2, then i'll think about q3 :) well, unless it's easer to run quake3 on linux (?)

It is very easy to run quake3. Just install the linux quake 3 installer

I'm having free space problems at the moment so quake2 will be fine till i change distro :)
Well, can anyone help me with that? :)

It so happens I'm troubleshooting a sound problem myself, and I ran across this in the readme file for the alsa drivers:

Hope that helps...
Mike

I hope you're joking...a game being old is no reason to stop playing it. I only bought Quake2 last week, I don't like quake 3

I too am having sound problems. Everything seems to work except when I try to run a Flash program, then no sound at all. have no idea what other information would help with this problem.
