Hello yet again.
My other problem is with Direct Sound. I put DeusEx in the title, but I
also have this problem with Icewind Dale I and II (and perhaps other
things I haven't yet tried to install or play).
Wine version: 20040112
Distribution: Mandrake 9.2
Sound card: onboard VIA 8233 using OSS drivers (since they actually work
under Mandrake and apps seem to like them better than ALSA)
Basically the deal is that the game starts fine. This time, I installed
DeusEx under Wine and am playing previous Windows installs of IWD 1 and
2, but it doesn't make a difference, as I've had this problem since way
back in September or so, and I've reinstalled all three games multiple
times various ways (either through Wine or under Windows).
The game (whichever one) starts fine, but I cannot even get out of any
menu screen (where I'm changing settings or choosing a save to load or
whatever) before the sound (music, usually) starts to loop. The game can
still be played "normally"-- no hang or problem with visuals or mouse
or
anything-- but it's so annoying that I usually quit without playing (all
three games have good music and rely on speech to some extent, so
turning the sound off is an option, but not a good one). I can also quit
normally via the game's normal exit menu-- but the sound does not stop
when I close the game, or the terminal.
As in my last post, the sound only stops when I kill the wine-pthreads
process in the System Monitor (I didn't know that last September-- I
just used to log out and back in).
Here's the log for DeusEx. I was also changing the resolution from
640x480 to 1280x1024 at the time, which also acted a bit odd, as you can
see (but then again, I didn't realize I had an unhandled exception
already when I did it)-- but you can also see that the sound errors
occurred well before that:

I was hoping that the DirectMusic improvements in 20040121 would have
solved this for me, but apparently not.
Is there anything I can do?
Thanks in advance again,

It looks like your sound card driver is broken. It says it supports triggers but then fails when they are used. I hate to say this but get a better supported sound card or fix the driver. motub@planet.nl wrote:> Hello yet again. > > My other problem is with Direct Sound.

I went pre-shopping for sound cards, but the only cheap ones I see are C-Media 8237 cards. So I went looking to see if *those* are better supported under Linux, and in my surfing I found someone doing a cat /proc/pci and discovering an IRQ conflict with their sound card. So I did one-- and my sound card and my video card are on the same IRQ (11). !!! Could this be the problem? And how do I change the IRQ of an AGP card and an onboard sound card? Obviously the usual strategy of physically moving the cards to different slots is not an option here. Holly> >motub@planet.nl wrote: > >>Hello yet again. >> >>My other problem is with Direct Sound.

One is that the drivers must be written correctly, but these days it would be rare to find a driver that breaks sharing (it was more of a problem when PCI was new). Another is when one of the devices is generating a large number of interrupts, which can lead to some inefficiencies, especially if it is the "second" device on the interrupt. But that only manifests itself in somewhat reduced performance. In PCI, sharing is the rule rather than the exception. I would be surprised if you could find any X86 system that is not sharing interrupts.
> Is there anything I can do?If you want to play without sound, just open a program that uses the sound card (Realplayer or artsd will do), then start the program in wine. Not a fix but at least you can play the game without an irritating background noise. Ivan.
