[lug] RH 7.2 Sound problem

[Jeffery D. Collins]

I agree with that, especially in the presence of other CPU intensive

Tech support claimed that the W2K digital sound actually sounds better than
the analog sound routed from the CDROM to the sound card.  I'm not sure I
tell the difference if put to the test...
