I run Linux 2.4 / SUSE 8.1 pro on a Duron 1300 - PC with a Terratec EWX 24/96 - PCI - Audiocard. Yast2 installs Kysela`s Envy24-Control - Mixer for this Card and it works well for playing Wav/Ogg/MPEG-Audiostreams etc. BUT: to set the Inputlevel properly is nearly impossible. If a soundmessage from Bash occurs the input is distorted and set to SW-Radio - "Quality", same with other Systemmessages. To get an undistorted Signal i have to set the Input extremely low, if it is set to the same volume as the internal output (from XMMS etc) it is extremely distorted and/or i get the SW-Radiosound as described above. here my questions: 1) is there an alternative to alsa/envy24-control that works ok with EWX ? 2) is there a patch for envy24 as RPM ? thanks -- HZN/Berlin/Fh http:www.linuxuse.de
