 Posted: Sun Oct 07, 2007 2:04 pm Post subject: no sound in dosbox[SOLVED] |
 |
|
Trying to get Alone in the Dark to work, but Dosbox is giving me sound errors: | Code: | ~/Alone in the Dark $ dosbox alone.exe
CONFIG: Using default settings. Create a configfile to change them
ALSA:Can't subscribe to MIDI port (65:0)
MIDI:Opened device:none |
I looked around but couldn't find any solution to this. Has anyone else experienced the problem?

Aha! I don't have it configured in Alsa. | Code: | ~ $ aplaymidi -l
Port Client name Port name |
Three questions. Say I add USE="midi" to my make.conf, and then run through the Alsa configuration doc again. Then, finally, I get to the section on setting up midi support and it says I need to copy over my soundfonts - three questions:
1. Is there a way I can be sure how I have alsa currently set up? | Code: | # emerge -av alsa-driver
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

2.If it is the kernel, what am I to do about: | Code: | | Device Drivers--->Sound--->Advanced Linux Sound Architecture--->Generic Devices--->< >Virtual MIDI Sound Card |
3.Where exactly do I get my soundfonts? I don't have a disc for my soundcard (I don't think....).

Nevermind. I realized that I probably don't have an onboard synthesizer and installed timidity.
everything works great now...including dosbox, though I had to change the config file.

| Could you show me your dosbox.conf file please? I also have problems with configuring midi sound in DOSBox. |
