jthing Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 (edited) Hi all. When using realplayer and other players there is no sound when mail arrives or when i open any windows. If I close any player then I getother sounds. Also I get a error which is Information - artsmessage Sound server informational message: Error while initializing the sound driver: device /dev/dsp can't be opened (Device or resource busy) The sound server will continue, using the null output device.

devries Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 This means your soundcard doesn´t support hardware mixing. Solution: install Mandriva le2005 or 2006 or edit the.asoundrc (a hidden file in /home/your name). Search the board for examples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devries Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 Then you have to create an .asoundrc https://mandrivausers.org/index.php?showtop...094&hl=asoundrc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
