Hello I am running Yellow Dog Linux Version 4.0.1On An Apple Powerbook G3 Pismo
the problem i am having is after logging into X and try to play a sound nothing happens except wav files with Noatun i can not even play audio cds if i play anything other than wav files i will either get a realy odd noise or nothing at all so can someone help me please?


if you need anymore info on my computer just add the info you need and i will reply
Thank you for your time

oh btw i just went to system tools and clicked Soundcard Dectection and this is what came up

Vendor:Apple Computer inc.
Model: PowerMac Sound
Module: snd_powermac

there is a button for test sound and if i hit it sometimes it will play the test sound ONLY when i go to logout of x othertimes it will delay a bit but play the sound other times it will play it close to instantly

i read somewhere it might be something related to a config file like somethingwas writen inthere wrong but i have no clue on how to access these files muchless where to find them or how to fix them lol thanks

just went to play test sound again and got an error msg this is what it said

Error Arts Message
Sound Server Fatal Error:
cpu overload, aborting


after i click ok to close the error window it played the test sound

if this helps anything
