I removed the module for the motherboard soundcard (via82cxxx_audio), and re-probed the emu10k1 module, and using sound no longer hangs; timidity sits there for about as long as it should to play the MIDI file, but I still don't hear any sound. The mixer has the volume set at 100% and my speaker is turned up to maximum. (So it will be pretty loud when I finally get it working.) -- Laura (mailto:lconrad@xxxxxxxxxxxx , http://www.laymusic.org/ ) (617) 661-8097 fax: (501) 641-5011 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139
