- (fheitka@ibm.net) alleged:
- : There is audio support in the Amiga hardware. As you know. I'm sure.
- : Do you mean there is no support in the kernel for an Amiga audio device?
- : Can an audio device be made for Amiga Linux?
-
- : Fred Heitkamp

- There was an alpha audio device that made its rounds on the mailing
- list a while back, but it was buggy (I think it dumped the contents of
- the audio file to the console instead of playing the audio sample).
-
- There is currently no support in the distributed kernels for an Amiga
- audio device. There is an Atari audio device that might be a good
- starting point (which I believe is compatible with the PC Linux audio
- device). Such an audio device for the Amiga would probably be humanly
- possible to code, but there is nothing complete yet (that I'm aware
- of, at least).
