Linux Soldier of Fortune sound init failure... PLEASE HELP!!!

[thescribe7]

i Have a 1ghz t-bird with asus board and raedon 32 ddr vid crd and a snd blaster live value snd crd. When I install SOF the try to run it, (In drake 8) I get a sound init failure.
Any of you game junkie guru's know what the issue may be. Quake II for linux worked fine. :rolleyes:

Dunno, it worked fine for me right out of the box. If you read the README file in /usr/local/games/sof it does have some command line options to tell it what sound stuff to use.

Also, be sure you don't have any other sound daemons taking control of your sound for you (kde does by default iirc)

I did try to run it from the GUI, KDE and I think Gnome as well. Maby perhaps this cannot be done. Mayby I should try from a command prompt. I'm not real expirienced at game in linux... yet. Someday I hope to do everything in linux alone. No duel boot.
Once again Ph34r Thank you.
