Multimedia :: Sound in DSL 6



Add me to the list of DSL 6 users that have their sound card working. Using Xmms play CD now, (Areosmith).

:;):

Lately, I cannot get xmms to give me a playlist from the cdrom.
So, No songs for me.
If I run Damn Small off the cdrom drive, then of course I cannot then put a
music cd in there and run it (or can I).
I am running Damn Small off /knoppix in /dev/hda1, and restore from a tarball
in /dev/hdb1.
When I try and run xmms, I can't find the cdrom drive, with the music cd!

 ???

you must run DSl with the Toram option. you need 128M Ram to do that.
Once you do that, you can use the play cd feature you get in xmms.
(this features goes back to version 0.4.something)
I never tryied to run "toram" from a HD installed DSL. It should work, I think.
hope this helps.  :;):

u need 128mb to toram? i thought u only need 64mb. anyway it works well on 256mb, 512mb, and 1gb of memory for toram
And if sound doesn't work, what steps do I take?
( new linux desktop user, and loving dsl )
