Hi
 
I posted this in the newbie list so apologies for double posting but it's
just a quick question.
 
I can't get sound out of my 7600 on YDL 3.0.1.  Is there no sound driver for
it?
 
Thanks
 
Julius Naim

Subject: PM 7600 sound problem


I recently installed YDL 3.01 on my PM 7600, specs are as follows;
 
CPU G3 500
RAM 448 Mb
9GB SCSI HD on built in SCSI
PCI USB/Firewire card (Ratoc PC1FU1P)
PCI UW SCSI card (ADPT 2940)
9GB UW SCSI HD
 
Originally I had intended to install YDL on the UW SCSI HD however after
installation and setting the BootX to sdb6 it would halt without finding the
boot volume.
 
I switched everything around, moved Mac OS/BootX onto the UW SCSI and
reinstalled YDL onto the built in SCSI, set BootX to sda6 but got the same
message about mounting the boot volume.  Reporting: 
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 08:06
 
I looked at http://www.ppckernel.org/ and downloaded
linux-ydl-2.6-2.6.5.tar.gz extracted the vmlinux file to the Linux kernels
folder in the system folder and set it in BootX.
 
Now I've managed to successfully boot I get;
 
    Sound server informational message:
 
    Error while initializing the sound driver:
 
    device /dev/dsp can't be opened (No such
    device or address)
 
    The sound server will continue, using the null
    output device.
 
When I run the Soundcard Detection app it tells me "No soundcards were
detected."
 
Please advise!
