[PlanetCCRMA] Soundcard woes!

[Rory Walsh]

Thanks Derek, the reason I had redhat 8.0 installed
before I installed CCRMA. I am using Kylix to to
compile a C++ project I had done in windows and it
works fine in redaht 8.0 but I have heard not so well
version 9.0? Anyway here is the conf file, anything
you can see here which might be causing the problem?
