Okay, I did a search first, but didn't really find anything that helped. The game appears to play fine, just not getting any sound. I get this error though:

Code: Select all

bash-2.05b$ ./armyops 
open /dev/[sound/]dsp: No such file or directory
Xlib:  extension "XiG-SUNDRY-NONSTANDARD" missing on display ":0.0".
bash-2.05b$ [/quote]

As far as I know, I'm just using ALSA.  I don't believe I have OSS support compiled in to the kernel.

I saw suggestions of artsd running, but it isn't on this machine.

Any other suggestions would be much appreciated.

The Xlib error sounds like it's a problem with your graphics card

open /dev/[sound/]dsp: No such file or directory

I think you'll need to OSS into your kernel. From what I've heard, not everything works with ALSA.

It was indeed an OSS problem. I didn't actually compile OSS into the kernel, but rather didn't realize I didn't have the OSS emulation compiled for ALSA, so I just did that and it worked.

I'll dig into that other error later though.

Thanks!
