Hi,
When playing Gabriel Knight 1, which uses both digitized sound output (using the Thunderboard driver) and midi output (using the general midi driver), I can get everything to work fine using either sound or either midi, but not both at the same time.
E.g., Timidity++ 2.13.2 complains with the following messages:
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:862:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
Can't open pcm device 'default'.
Couldn't open ALSA pcm device (`s')
I'm running this kernel: 2.6.17-gentoo-r4, with built-in alsa using an intel8x0 card. I was told that dmix support was enabled by default for this kernel, so I don't have an .asoundrc file.
Is this a dosbox problem, or does the problem lie elsewhere?
Thanks!
Peter
