matt_thomas Posted December 24, 2003 Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 I have a Creative sb16 pci (got it from walmart... dont ask) works fine, but in mms it tends to skip a lot. This is probably a problem with xmms, but I did notice that the card is installed as an ensoniq card (which is technically a 'creative' card...) Just wondering if this is normal, or if there's another driver I can use that may perform better? Thanks - Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iphitus Posted December 26, 2003 Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 I am not sure, but dont all SB cards use emu10k1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted December 26, 2003 Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 (edited) http://www.MandrakeUsers.org/index.php?sho...topic=10396&hl= I have the same card though I do not use it at this time in ML but I do in gentoo. Post at the link didn't work? Are you using the alsa driver or oss? Post your /etc/modules.conf and the output of lspci -vv in a terminal. Also, one post is enough...you could have replied in your first thread. Edited December 26, 2003 by bvc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonMage Posted December 27, 2003 Report Share Posted December 27, 2003 Soundblaster 16 PCI is an ensoniq card. Creative Labs bought Ensoniq ages ago in order to acquire its PCI soundcard technology (at the time all Creative cards are ISA cards). Creative rebranded ensoniq cards into current SB PCI cards. So the driver being ensoniq is normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
