After reading a post about the Linux Quake release, I downloaded the software and ran it on a 2.0.3 kernel. The sound failed and crashed the program with a floating point exeption.
mprotect(0x8043000, 4064, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE|PROT_EXEC) = 0 write(2, "writable code 804420c-8044732\n", 30writable code 804220c-8044732) = 30 mprotect(0x8044000, 1842, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE|PROT_EXEC) = 0 --- SIGFPE (Floating point exception) --- +++ killed by SIGFPE +++
Runs fine with -nosound, but what fun is that?
After bringing down the 2.0.4 patch (and adding the missing ; to sb_common.c), I tried again. Big nada.
I rebooted my system with 1.3.80 and ran xquake. Sound!
Has something changed in the code for a Soundblaster 16?
Troy
