----------------I also included the log as a file (et.log). How do i get sound in Enemy Territory and derivatives.

[Monkus]

I too am having the same problem with sound on ET. And as fate would have it. I spell Collin with 2 "L"s also. Perhaps it's a problem that only occurs if you spell it with 2 "L"'s"

Copy/paste from http://katanoon.nl/ubu-e/install.php

Step 4: Fixing sound issues
If your sound didn't work in Step 3, then try the following:
sudo -s
echo "et.x86 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss
echo "et.x86 0 0 disable" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0c/oss
exit


Exit all music players, web browsers etc. then try:
killall esd
et

If you now have sound, then:
sudo -s
echo "echo "et.x86 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss" >> /etc/environment
echo "echo "et.x86 0 0 disiable" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0c/oss" >> /etc/environment
exit
This will save the setting.

nope...didn't work :'(

[rekahsoft]

anybody?

sudo -s
echo "et.x86 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss
echo "et.x86 0 0 disable" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0c/oss
exit

anybody?
It worked for me. Thanks!

This solution does not work for me, where is the support??

et-sdl-sound (Run ET With ALSA)

There is an alpha hack which is around that makes Return To Castle Wolfenstein Enemy Territory play with ALSA by replacing standard sound system functions in runtime as aoss won't work for ET. I found this necessary when wanting to run TeamSpeak 2.XX at the same time.

It's located at http://nullkey.ath.cx/~stuff/et-sdl-sound/

Simply download the latest tarball http://nullkey.ath.cx/~stuff/et-sdl-sound/et-sdl-sound.tar.gz

1. Extract

2. Copy et-sdl-sound.so file to /opt/enemy-territory/

3. Open your favourite text editor and add the following lines and save as et_sdl_sound.sh:
#!/bin/bash
export ETSDL_SDL_LIB="libSDL.so"
export SDL_AUDIODRIVER="alsa"
cd /opt/enemy-territory/
LD_PRELOAD="/opt/enemy-territory/et-sdl-sound.so" ./et.x86 $*

4. chmod +x et_sdl_sound.sh

5. ./et_sdl_sound.sh

Note if you want to hook this up to XQF you need to tell XQF that the "Command Line" is "/opt/enemy-territory/et_sdl_sound.sh" and the "Working Directory" is "/opt/enemy-territory/"

That works for me in Gentoo, I'm pretty sure it also worked in Ubuntu as well, worth a shot

Worked for me too!

Cheers!
