Solaris

Thanks Don, I missed that.

I did the following:

Code:

dd if=/dev/urandom of=/tmp/noise.raw bs=1024 count=64

Which gave me the following output:

Code:

64+0 records in
64+0 records out

Then I did the following:

Code:

sox -b 8 -r 8000 -v 1 -e unsigned-integer /tmp/noise.raw -d trim 0 00:02 > /tmp/sox.log 2>&1

Which FINALLY gave me the following in my /tmp/sox.log:
/tmp/noise.raw:

Code:

File Size: 65.5k     Bit Rate: 64.0k
  Encoding: Unsigned PCM  
  Channels: 1 @ 8-bit    
Samplerate: 8000Hz       
Replaygain: off         
  Duration: 00:00:08.19  

 In:0.00% 00:00:00.00 [00:00:08.19] Out:0     [      |      ]        Clip:0     In:25.0% 00:00:02.05 [00:00:06.14] Out:16.0k [!=====|=====!] Hd:0.0 Clip:0     In:25.0% 00:00:02.05 [00:00:06.14] Out:16.0k [      |      ] Hd:0.0 Clip:0    
Done.

I gotta tell ya, seeing that was the sexiest thing I've seen in a while. However, that being said, nothing can be had from this because it's not showing anything that isn't working properly.
Unless I'm misinterpreting this tease.

Any thoughts?

As always, Thanks

It looks like you have output but it is not being routed to the speaker system or earphones.

I am still thinking of a solution but this could possibly be a driver _fault_.

Newer drivers might well cure the problem assuming they exist.

Sorry it took too long for a response, I crashed my UNIX Box about 5 times messing around with adding repositories and start up files and the like.

Soooo, I'm thinking that maybe I should try loading newer/older/beta drivers, just like you said.
I was on OSS's website and couldn't get Solaris to run the drivers. If someone can tell me how to do this, that would be awesome. I have been loving UNIX since installing, it's appeal can be intoxicating, however, I'm so frustrated that I can't have sound, and it totally turns me off to not hear the music I love.

As always, Thanks for your input.
