Newbie? SuSe 7.1 and SBLive

[larryboz]

I just loaded Suse 7.1 and everything was going great got pretty much everything configured but SBLive is not working at all. It says that it is configured properly but I have no sound. I have tried the NHF's and search for other answers through the forum but no success. I think it is an IRQ conflict but not sure on how to check that. Any help would greatly be appreciated. I have a Gateway Athlon 800

A couple inital thoughts

Is the driver loaded??

The correct driver is Emu10k1 --

You can download the latest version of this from creative.opensource.com if necessary.

Allow me to correct myself -- the url is
opensource.creative.com -- not the other way around -- oops!

You probably already have it however.

try the following --

lsmod (this will give you a list of loaded modules --> see if emu10k1 is loaded)

If not try

insmod emu10k1 --> this should load the module

If this does because the module is not found -- get it from the aboove source compile it and try to insmod it again.

If you have it and it will not load --
Check your bios settings
make sure that "pnp aware os" is set to off

The soundblaster live will not work with this set to on

If you've read past posts though, you may have tried all this already -- what have you tried so far?
