Re: OSS Technical Support Request by robert

Hi,

The problem is that your soundcard is not SB16 but something else. It 
will not work with the SB16 driver of OSS. There
is probably a way to get OSS working better by configuring it for some
other soundcard.

Do you have any information about the soundcard (manufacturer/model or
preferably a list of IC chips on the card).
