No, that isn't the problem. I can read the CD, just no sound comes
out. I have an IDE cdrom, so for me it's different. The problem is most
likely in the kernel, in which I have not been able to successfully
build with sound support.
Is there a way to examine a kernel to check if sound is included?
Can someone who has successfully got Soundblaster16 to work, please
mail me the kernel Makefile, or even post it here, as I have seen
a couple of other threads of people having similar problems.
Thanks in advance:
