| Is that with motherboard audio? Does a mp3 play ok? I have found sound works best on linux with emu10k1 cards. |

uh... this is strange right?
tehsis@KatosDev /mnt/cdrom $ dmesg | grep -i audio
tehsis@KatosDev /mnt/cdrom $
i've installed the kernel drivers... shall i tried with the "out-kernel" drivers?
EDIT: if i run quake3 as it, i have that problem... but if i run quake3-bin everithing go ok... so... i supposed that it's solved... |

my bad.. it's | Code: | | lspci | grep -i audio |
(from sys-apps/pciutils)
sorry//
anyway, usually, when it comes to sound, quake3 runs better than quake3-bin.. that's funny.
have fun:)

| Check the q3a console log for sound warnings. dmesg may have some too. |

Where did you get quake 3? Upon quick perusal of portage I don't see quake3 or ioquake3, so I presume it's in an overlay?

| OP mentioned that it works with quake3-bin, so this is probably games-fps/quake3-bin, the last bits of which were removed in 2019 in commit games-fps/quake3*: drop vulnerable pkgs. Since this thread is from 2006, quake3-bin could have existed in the main tree back when this thread was new. |
