Enemy territory and ut2004 both don't have sound. In the past I could fix this with running:

Code:
echo "et.x86 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss


Unfortunately this doesn't work anymore :( The only thing that changed is my desktop (now Gnome) and my kernel (now 2.6.24-gentoo-r8) Is there a new fix for this problem?

Code:
# cat /proc/asound/oss/sndstat
Sound Driver:3.8.1a-980706 (ALSA v1.0.15 emulation code)
Kernel: Linux Zenpc 2.6.24-gentoo-r8 #1 SMP Sat May 31 23:57:52 CEST 2008 i686
Config options: 0

Installed drivers:
Type 10: ALSA emulation

Card config:
HDA Intel at 0xfebfc000 irq 17

Audio devices:
0: ALC882 Analog (DUPLEX)

Synth devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG

Midi devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG

Timers:
31: system timer

Mixers:

Code:

# lspci
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01)

There must be a lack in your kernel configuration. I can have sound now in ET without having to do the tweak trick anymore.

I use a rt-sources kernel, so it can have major differences about sound with your kernel, but the first thing I might look would be the support for OSS emulation in your alsa kernel config.

Did you include all the OSS options? (your logs seem to show that you didn't include OSS Mixer API, but I have no idea if this does the trick).

Here's some output :

Code:

Thanks for the help. Afaik I have all option enabled in my kernel. Strangely enough I get this message when I start et from the commandline:

Code:

My kernel config:

Solved! :D :D :D

Rerunning alsaconf did the trick. It might be related to the fact that I didn't had the oss USEflag (I swicthed to the 2008 Desktop profile which turned out to be empty). I switched back to the 2007 profile and recompiled world.
