Hello,

I just installed an SiS 741 motherboard and sound won't work. i.e. I
get an error when I try to use ogg123 to play music files:

jrennie(a)pinot:~/ogg$ ogg123 brand_x/unorthodox_behaviour/nuclear_burn.ogg

Audio Device: OSS audio driver output

Playing: brand_x/unorthodox_behaviour/nuclear_burn.ogg
Ogg Vorbis stream: 2 channel, 44100 Hz
Title: Nuclear Burn
Artist: Brand X
Genre: Jazz
Date: 0
Album: Unorthodox Behaviour
Track number: 01
libao - OSS cannot set rate to 44100
Error: Cannot open device oss.

Segmentation fault

Debian seems to have recognized the sound card correctly as an
i810-compatible. Here's the output of lsmod:

The sound card appears in the lspci listing and there don't appear to
be any IRQ conflicts:

Anyone have any ideas/suggestions as to what I should try? Any help

It looks like the system's finding everything alright... the next step
depends upon what kernel and sound architecture you're using. ogg123
is looking for OSS; are you using actual OSS, or ALSA in OSS emulation
mode? if it's ALSA, you need to run alsaconf to configure the new
devices. The other thing to try is to see if a audio wrapper daemon
like esd will use your device properly (you should hear the startup
beeps) and then use esdplay or some such to launch ogg123.

ok, I just checked the lsmod on a box I administer with the same
board... You're definitely using OSS. I really reccomend upgrading
to the ALSA system, I've been using that with that board and it works
like a charm.

I wish I had more suggestions for the OSS drivers, but I haven't used
that system in a while. but try seeing if a sound daemon helps at all.

cheers,
jason
