No sound in game(s) - Cobra! - 10-19-2014
I recently built myself a new PC (just like i said I would), and have installed Linux Lite as one of the OSes, and the OS seems to be ever faster on it! However, I have a problem with a game I'm trying to play (and maybe others too), there's no sound...
The game is called [url=http://"http://maniadrive.raydium.org/"]Mania Drive[/url], and it worked perfectly on my old Laptop, albeit with frame-rate issues, but no problems when it came to sound.
On my new, top of the range PC, it can't play sound at all! No matter what I try, I can't get anything out of it!
I tried running the game using the terminal, and this was what came out:

Raydium: path: write: "/home/cobradabest/.mania_drive/data"I noticed it said it was unable to load the sound system, but when I went to look it up, I only found one, unresolved topic, made years ago, about this issue.
I can't test any other games yet, as I've still to install any more, I'm downloading Super Tux Kart to see if the same problem occurs there, but my internet is being pretty slow right now, and it would take ages to download the full thing, so I can't do anything until then. If it helps, VLC has sound, and so does anything I play on Firefox.
EDIT: I also tried playing something from a CD in VLC while playing the game, the game cut off the sound completely! I can't play it again!
So what do I do?

Hi Cobra!
Sounds like you're experienced with this but just want to confirm nothing here in the manual is helpful?

I don't have enough experience with this issue to offer direct help but I expect somebody will reply soon.

Re: No sound in game(s) - rokytnji - 10-20-2014
Being that the problem is related on how the game software is wrote to identify hardware to give you sound in the game.
Also. Being the game was written before your hardware was even known to the software game developer.
Well. Good luck getting some small forum like this to solve how that game file was written to identify hardware.
Your sound chip is probably from the future to that software.
It is like the movie 2001. Where the caveman throws the bone into the air after looking at the monolith.
A program can only deal with what it knows. The game does not know your hardware. It did not exist
when that game was wrote. Hence the
Quote:it worked perfectly on my old Laptop
Just a explanation I know. Not a fix. Sorry.

So what do I do?
Kinda a confusing statement for this old biker from Texas. Can't play what again?

Hi,
Again not a solution to Mania Drive...
But Googling
Code:
open /dev/[sound/]dsp: No such file or directorySome seem to refer to OOS "Open Sound System".?
Dave
ps,
Your listing seemed to show another error.?, not sure if you do
Code:

The only error I'm getting not is that the framerate stutter and doesn't seem to go as smooth as the fps counter is telling me (which it says is running in the hundreds!), So that might have something to do with it... ?

I have never had issues with framerate, I don't do games...
I don't know how accurate it is.? or if it will work on your H/W?, or even relevant to your situation.? But you could try the following
Go to Install/Remove Software(Synaptic), search for "glxgears", it will return "mesa-utils" install if not install.
The open a Terminal "ctrl-alt- t" and type glxgears
It should open another small window with rotating gears, and give a "fps" value in the terminal window
It should look like this, use "ctrl-c" to stop it.
Code:
dave@asus-mini-1:~$ glxgears
Running synchronized to the vertical refresh. The framerate should be
approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.
304 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.703 FPS
301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.001 FPS
301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.002 FPS
^C
