I found that the mic input works fine but line in doesn't. I'm using a SoundBlasterLive, and I'm starting to wonder if my card is bad. It did occur to me that it may be gramofile . . . . > If there is > anyone who is using gramofile, please tell me how you configured > gramofile or what magic needs to be done to the kernel to make it work. > Also I have had problems with gramofile hanging up, it does not respond > to any mouse or keyboard input, and I need to do a kill -9 to get out. I have found that gramofile doesn't clean up after itself very well: run ipcs and see if there are some semaphores that are blocking things up. I did add the semaphore stuff from LINT in vain hopes of making it behave better . . . . but I still end up falling back on ipcs and ipcrm. # System V semaphores and tunable parameters options SYSVSEM # include support for semaphores options SEMMAP=31 # amount of entries in semaphore map options SEMMNI=11 # number of semaphore identifiers in the system options SEMMNS=61 # number of semaphores in the system options SEMMNU=31 # number of undo structures in the system options SEMMSL=33 # max number of semaphores per id options SEMOPM=101 # max number of operations per semop call options SEMUME=11 # max number of undo entries per process -- Paul Beard: seeking UNIX/internet engineering work 8040 27th Ave NE Seattle WA 98115 / 206 529 8400 Talkers are no good doers. -- William Shakespeare, "Henry VI" To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
