I've got an Athlon XP 2200+ a Asus A7N8X and a Geforce 4 TI 4200 with latest nvidia drivers.

When i play UT2003, i can play only for several minutes and then i got this error :

open /dev/[sound/]dsp: Device or resource busy
Xlib: extension "XiG-SUNDRY-NONSTANDARD" missing on display ":0.0".

Backtrace:
[ 1] ./Core.so [0x40a0d71a]
[ 2] /lib/libpthread.so.0 [0x40dd2dfa]
[ 3] /lib/libc.so.6 [0x40bc1a78]
Signal: SIGIOT [iot trap]
Aborting.

Why ?

Do you have some other software running that uses /dev/dsp ? Like arts, esd, xmms, ...

You can allways try and downgrade the nvidia-drivers, for some the 3xxx work, for others the 4xxx work... I use the 4xxx succesfully with my Ti 4200. Are you sure you have the nvidia opengl interface selected? (see opengl-update)

If your in KDE or gnome, try running it in fluxbox or another Wm with a sound manager. That works for me with Q3 based apps.

Here some part of my XF86Config :

Code:
Section "Module"

# This loads the DBE extension module.

    Load        "dbe"   # Double buffer extension

# This loads the miscellaneous extensions module, and disables
# initialisation of the XFree86-DGA extension within that module.
    SubSection  "extmod"
      Option    "omit xfree86-dga"   # don't initialise the DGA extension
    EndSubSection

# This loads the Type1 and FreeType font modules
    Load        "type1"
    Load        "speedo"
    Load        "freetype"
    Load        "xtt"
    Load        "record"
    Load        "fbdevhw"

# This loads the GLX module
    Load        "glx"
# This loads the DRI module
#    Load       "dri"

EndSection


Some parts of my /etc/modules.conf :

Code:
alias char-major-10-175 agpgart
alias char-major-195 nvidia
alias /dev/nvidiactl char-major-195
options nvidia NVreg_EnableAGPSBA=1 NVreg_EnableAGPFW=1


What should i do ?

You should try disabling agpgart, and using one of the other available agp protocols. I can't remember exactly how to do it, but there's instructions in nVidia's Linux driver README. I think they say that nvagp is the most stable now, but don't quote me on that. (I was going to put a link to the readme here, but nVidia's driver site is down right now, sorry)

That is what i've done :

Code:
cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status

Status:          Enabled
Driver:          NVIDIA
AGP Rate:        4x
Fast Writes:     Enabled
SBA:             Enabled


I think it means that i use nvidia agp (??)

Uhhh, I'm not sure what that is, but the agpgart change is made in your XF86Config-4 and your modules.conf. I would have posted the actual solution, but my firewall's acting up, and for some reason I can't access ftp, so here's the link to the nvidia driver page, everything you need is in there.

I've modified my XF86Config and my modules.conf (see above)

Right, you've got the driver installed properly, but you can change how the driver accesses your AGP slot. According the modules.conf you posted, you're using agpgart right now. nVidia has several option available so that you can tweak and see which one is the best for you- I use NVAgp on my box, and there's other options that are lower perfomance, but higher compatibility. All of that stuff is in the Appendices, along with a ton of other options, like how to properly set your AntiAliasing and Antriscopic filtering :twisted: .

I've deactivated apggart in my kernel (gentoo-sources) and tried all the :

Code:
Option "NvAgp" |  cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status
  1                    |  Nvidia
  2                    |  Disabled
  3                    |  Nvidia


And ii have the same error.... :cry: :cry: :cry:

Options like FSAA or Antriscopic filtering could fix my problem ???

The backtrace he is posting would mention the agp driver if in fact the problem was occuring there.

I would go here:
http://opensource.creative.com/

Follow the directions for checking out the latest OpenAL source code. Once you got it, use:
Code:

./configure
make


to compile. In the src dir, there should be like like a openal.so.0.6.0 or something of that nature. Copy that to your ut2003/system folder as openal.so.

Once you have that, you need to make sure you have nothing else running that could possibly be using the sound card. IM clients, email program, whatever. The error suggests something is locking dsp0.

Also make sure you are running the latest version of UT2003 by running the update program in the install dir.

If its still happening,
Try downloading a demo of the sound drivers at www.opensound.com and installing them. They driver includes a virtual DSP device thingy that automatically allows multiple things to access the sound card by multiplexing at the kernel level. Much faster than Arts and the application doesn't happen to have special support for it. It happens transparently. This if anything, will fix your problem. You need that newew openal.so to use these drivers with UT2003 as well.

I find that most apps that access /dev/dsp will not run while arts, the kde sound system is running. Try running "killall arts" then running the app. This works for me in many apps with sound problems.

So... About this sound problem.... :D

j/k

All I can see, is that ut2003 is causing a problem with glibc. Do you have a current version? Do you have a new fangled threading implimentation? Do you have a masked/unstable version?

Remember that ut2003 is a set of binaries, and has been linked against a version of glibc and if yours is radically different, there will be trouble!
