Do you happen to be using native audio on an Intel i810 or 815 motherboard? If so, full duplex audio crashed Linux under OSS, and I think I crashed it the one time I tried it under Alsa too... the solution is to buy a separate soundcard. (I8x0 audio is terrible quality anyway...)

Thanks everyone for the help . PD now runs when I use -noadc -nodac, it also runs with just -nodac , it also runs with -noadc and I get sound, BUT not if I use both audio input and output. Puzzling ! So is the next step to install the Alsa drivers? How can I check to see what audio drivers my RH7.2 is currently using? Oh ya and duhh I was starting PD outside of and X window. Chris was asking why I'm changing to Linux for PD from Windows. I expect I'll get better performance and stability under Linux. Also it appears that things come out here first in Linux and eventually in windows. Jim

I've been using PD under windoze but have just successfully configured my laptop to dual boot XP and RH7.2 Linux. I'm eager to get PD running under Linux. I'm a total Linux newbie so I may be doing something stupid. I'd appreciate any help you can provide. RH7.2 is using the 2.4.7-10 kernel. I downloaded PD (.34 ) as an rpm and rpm'd it with the -i option. When I type pd my machine freezes. I know it is starting because it is telling me I have no midi in or out. I can't even escape with ctrl alt del . The message I get is: Oops :0000 EIP: 0010: [<c98ffcca>] EFLAGS: 00010246 etc etc.
At the end of the message: <0> kernel panic:Aiee,killing interrupt handler! In interrupt handler-not syncing
Then nothing happens. I have to push the power switch to reboot. Do I have to upgrade my kernel? Any suggestions? Thanks! Jim
