Quake 3 Trouble

[goon12]

I am using Mandrake 7.2, with a Yamaha PCI sound card. The game runs really really great, but no sound. All other sound works, mp3s, Unreal Tourney, system sounds, and my loki_demos.

Is it possible to get sound with out buying another sound card? Thanks.

What do you have for your sound preferences in the game? I think it gives you a few choices in there...

As far as I know, all I can do is change the quality and the volume. I tried all the qualities and still nothing. Is there some kind of *cfg file I can edit or look at? ( Or maybe my card isnt supported? Its not that new.)

Dude.. I had a strange problem like that.

First, I symlinked the quake3 executable into the /usr/bin directory.

Anyways, when I put quake in the mandrake menu and ran it, I had no sound. BUT if I went into a console and typed quake3 sound would work.
