Quake 3 Sound Chestnut

[aaronfulton]

Not to bring up this problem again but I can't find any decent documentation. I am not able to get any sound running Quake 3. I get this old message:
/dev/dsp: Device or resource busy
Could not open /dev/dsp

I have tried most of everything I can think of. I change the permissions on dsp and adsp. I redirected Quake 3 to my adsp device. I tried kill arts. I tried a few rough hacks but nothing has worked permanently. I had it working yesterday but to no avail it didn't last. Does anyone know of a way to get the sound in Quake 3 working properly?

Re: Quake 3 Sound Chestnut

it sounds like you've got something else using alsa (or oss? which does q3 use?)...
