<DIV><SPAN class=142425414-22122003><FONT face=Arial size=2>Difficult one this
as Loki no longer exists! I blew the dust of my Q3A over the weekend and got it
up and running on my Linux box. I've got my HSF-based sound card working just
fine under normal conditions, but when I play Q3A, as the game starts the sound
card makes some random popping noise and then never runs. The Q3A console
reports "system sound is muted" for some reason. I see on the web page that
there was feature regarding "direct access interface" and I was wondering if
that was a problem like that at all considering XMMS runs just fine, but Q3A
doesn't? </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
