[riptide] (no subject)

[Bradley Schlangen]

Hello,

I'm responding to the following posting

I experienced the same problems with Mandrake 9.0 using the prebuilt rpm's 
for same kernel version as yours. I can get the sound to work by stopping 
the arts deamon then exiting X11. As root remove the old riptide driver rpm 
-e riptide then reinstall rpm -i riptide**.rpm.

Do not use the prebuilt librarys and use the lib's provided in the rpm. Go 
back into KDE and reinit the arts deamon. This may or maynot work I had to 
do several cycles of that to get results from arts although oss + esd 
operated fine without dificulties. T

his isn't permanent after I rebooted the sound was gone. Had to redo the 
whole proccess. I degraded my kernal version back to 2.4.18-16mdk and I had 
non of the problems mentioned.

Just a bit of useless info,
Brad.S
