sound install with problem

sound install with problem

[Eric Kosten]

finally have my sblive on irq9, but when I play .wav, mp3 files+ with
mpg321, sound is so slow that one needs to really use the brain to figure
out what the stuff is supposed to sound like! Using  speakup and kernel
2.6.11.  any help is appreciated.

What idstro have you got there and how did you setup your sound? Did
you build the ALSA stuff from the sources or what did you do to get
the sound stuff working. Also did you build your own kernel or is it a
prepackaged one. We need more info.

It is kernel 2.6.11 and it is a custom kernel made by a long time linux
admin friend of mine.  He helped by building the kernel with many
modulesstarting from the alsa within this 2.6.11 kernel.  He built it using
the support for the aureal vortex 8820 chipset, and the issues started.  He
asked me to try another sound card, and I inserted an sblive newer and also
removed the vortex card.  Booted and linux says that the sblive is detected
as: emu10k1 with some caps although I can't remember where.
Now, I need to know what to look for where sound modules are concerned and
where.  I am new but good with speakup's reading commands.  If the phone
helps, I can privately communicate with someone over the phone if necessary!
sincerely
Eric

p.s. the install aside from kernel was done originally using the cd-rom as
the kernel2.4.27-speakup that I found by way of the speakup page.  I used
apt to grab packages from debian.
