FWIW I took the hard drive out of my old 32bit/2.6.22 kernel system (VIA K8 / AMD2800+ uniprocessor) and put into my new nForce4 / AMD6000+ SMP processor system and, sure enough, the sound is now distorted. So exactly the same driver + kernel + apps (that worked fine in my older VIA system) in a different mainboard + CPU environment now has unusable distorted sound out the USB soundcard. I guess my next step is to roll a new kernel with ALSA from CVS, and if that doesn't work, I'll try the Opensound drivers. --markc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
