no recording w/ emu10k1 (SBLive! and SBPCI512)

Hello...

I've spoken with the CEO of 4front technologies about my recording problems using OSS/Commercial with the SBPCI512 card. (Some one else posted recoding problems with the Live! yesterday, too.)

He has informed me that there *is* a bug in the recording code for these two cards, and recording is absolutely not possible unless you download the emo10k1 driver from creative labs' website.

They have no plans to fix this bug until sometime in the summer.

peace,

just an update on the SBLive driver, since a number of people emailed me and had similar problems.

It seems to record fine now with the CVS driver (available at www.opensource.com)

recording with SLab works (if you run SLab as root!)

i have not yet got kvoice to work, but understand that other people (with different soundcards) get similar error messages, so it may just be a bad program (i heard that it is no longer supported).

if anyone knows what permissions to change to get SLab to work without being root, please let me know.

thanks for the help,
jonathan
