Hmm.. Maybe it is just a Sounblaster compatible card.

Try opening an terminal window and type:

sudo su
modprobe sb
exit
exit

and then try XMMS to play a song.

I tried that and when I went to play a song, it  took 5 realtime seconds to play one second of the song and was rather choppy. Any suggestions?

You might need to specify a dma address for your sound card, like this:

Code Sample
sudo su
modprobe sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330

That command worked. Thanks.

Do I need to do this everytime or will it store it, or do I have to edit a file?
Thanks

Edit: The laptop plays CD's fine, but when I play a MP3 off of my hard drive which is mounted /dev/sda2 it is choppy. What can i do to fix. This is be used for DJing and I cant copy MP3s to my laptop hdd
