Hi there,

Has anybody got sound within quake2 to work with ubuntu. My quake2 runs
(in opengl-mode, after some hacking), but soud refuses to work. When
starting quake 2 says: 

loading oss sound output driver, ok
/dev/dsp: No such device
SNDDMA_Init: Could not toggle. (2)

Well, the file /dev/dsp does exist, and i'm trying this as root, just
for testing. I'm puzzled whether this has something to do with my
soundcard (sb pci 128, es1371 module), the fact that gnome is running
(esd) or with the linux quake2-port was written in per-alsa days (?). If
anybody could shed some light on the subject...

Thanks in advance,
Rolf Deenen,

PS I'm not completely sure whether this should go on the debian- or the
ubuno-forum. If i shouldn't have send it here i appologise...
