phunni Posted August 12, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2003 kind of - it's rubbish - the sound is very juddery and broken. Every other aspect of the game runs nicely though (albeit quietly) I'd prefer to not use arts if possible Edit: it must be possible to not use arts - I found the following in the build manual BUILD_ARTS Build support for the aRts sound system (src/linux/snd_arts.c) [default = NO] Hoping I don't have to re-install with different USE flags now... - bet I do :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlc Posted August 12, 2003 Report Share Posted August 12, 2003 I'm not sure what "adsp" is, but I wonder if you change: ~/.quake2/baseq2/config.cfg set snddevice "/dev/dsp" Could the sound also be a mixer setting? I know if "PCM" is up to high, mine sounds like garbage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phunni Posted August 12, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2003 didn't work - that option was not there - but I added it and I get no sound. I'm pretty sure tha PCM wave volume is set at a decent level - I tend to know about it if it's too loud :wink: I'm going to try and re-emerge with USE="-arts" and see what happens - I'll let you know...
