[linux-audio-user] Intel 82801BA Sound

[bwc2001 at columbia.edu]

I did a chmod 777 /dev/dsp /dev/mixer /dev/sequencer /dev/midi
but it still doesn't work. I've never had any hardware fail to work
in Linux when the software said it was functioning. Even the RH
sound card configuration tool indicactes it is present, although the
test sound button doesn't play anything. Please let me know if there
is anything else I should try before buying a new sound card.

Thanks, Brian
