Hello Friends,
I bought a laptop toshiba A10 - S213 pentium 4 - 516 Mo and I installed
mandrake 9.2 on it, i use it with the multimedia kernel of mandrake. I
would like to know if one of you could access to the bios of this kind
of machine, it seems that we have to use window$ to have access to it,
really strange. Does someone have an idea?
And also, I have some problems when I used sound and that in the same
time I run a brownser or another application, the sound is cutting by
some other priority of the system, I tried to give priority to sound by
doing nice --10 but it's always the same, does someone had experienced
this problem?
thanks a lot for your help!!

Hi!
After two weeks working on that ..... i got it ... I have REVERB and CHORUS
in my SB Live ... well i need to improve some things, but i can control the
amount of reverb and chorus with MIDI control message for each MIDI
channel ... gmorgan sounds like a film with reverb and chorus. :-)
I use ld10k1 from Peter Zubaj .... a fantastic program, hi was send me a
pre-release with some improvements, as10k1 form alsa-utils to compile the
patches, i modified some bus and chorus example patches and I adapted fv10k1
(Freverb from sourceforge emu10k1 drivers), then i made som scripts to load.
Actually has some small problems, in fact the FX8010 is a mistery for me ..
and seems the TRAM delay lines of both effects are mixed ... but with some
small alsamixer hacking sounds pretty good.
If someone is interested i will send you ....
Greetings
Josep
Does anyone have a valid mail address of Lionstracs ?
I tried webmaster(a)lionstracs.com but received an error message: "This
address no longer accepts mail."
Thanks,

If I am correct, this article about Linux was not yet posted here.

Sounds from Another Planet

Hello.
Is there a player with similar design as gqview has?
Then I could easily play songs and move between directories.
I checked Alsaplayer but it does not provide the directory
browsing. Worse, Alsaplayer does not know anything what
happens in the directories: songs stay in the play list
even they are completely deleted.
Alsaplayer also does not show the filenames but prefers to dig
info from mp3 files and display that. I need names which match
with filenames (so that I don't have to guess the filenames!).
The playlist in Alsaplayer does not provide any grouping/folders.
All songs are in one list. I know a guy who has 10,000+ songs in
mp3/wma format. All can be managed easily with the software he
uses in MS Windows. That kind of software equipped with direct
directory browsing would be great in Linux.

Juhana
Hi
I am new to Linux and new to this list - a friend of mine set it up last WE
cause i was fed up with Windows and its capitalist way of working. I have
Debian 2.4.22 i think (i know it's 2.4 something). It got installed using
Knoppix then it got upgraded. We tried to upgrade it to 2.6 but some things
were obviously wrong in the set up as it doesn't boot properly (probably
something wrong with the graphic settings cause the screen goes all black).
So i boot to 2.4.
I have a Terratec DMX 6 Fire soundcard and Rosegarden 4 and Audacity but my
problem is i don't seem to be able to record anything. I plugged in my 4
tracks portastudio into the line input as i used to do and i can hear it on
my monitors but i can't record anything in Audacity. I have tried to play
around with the various things in the alsamixer, setting everything to
Capture and all the levels up and so on, but to no avail.
Has anyone got any idea why i can't record?
I also have a question about Rosegarden4. I have a Evolution MIDI keyboard
controller, it's a USB device - i don't seem to get any MIDI date in when
it's plugged via the USB port but i get MIDI data in when i plug it into the
front MIDI input on my soundcard, which is OK for now (i will look into this
USB thing when i upgrade to 2.6 properly i guess). However, i cannot hear
anything - i have set things to "Midi device 1 channel 1" for example and
then selected a bank and a sound - i know the MIDI data gets in as i can see
the small U-meter near the track number go up and down but can't hear
anything. When i go to the set up, it says somewhere "MIDI OK, no audio" -
what does it mean and is it a problem?
I was used to a few programs under Windows but i am not a master in any of
them under Windows and i am totally new to the Linux environment so i'm not
sure whether it is connected to something wrong in my set up or me not
understanding how the software actually works...
Any help would be very much appreciated, especially with the audacity
recording issue as i've done some recordings with a friend and we want to mix
them now but we are stuck because of this issue!
Cheers
Rachel

Other OSS apps work just fine. Nothing shows up with fuser. Weird weird. Xine will not work with the HDSP/MF either (it starts up and immediately shuts down), and Mplayer will work with the sdl output - the oss output is grainy, and the alsa9 won't work at all. It has something to do with the card, because all of these things work fine with my onboard card.
Thanks for your help,
Matt
