Yeah, support that sucks. Bigtime. Its probably got something to do with the
buffering, but running mpg123 when using 2.4 inbuilt drivers, the sound
would skip when i as much as scrolled in 'less'. With Alsa, I guess, nothing
less than beating your speakers with a bat would make that happen.

Damn! SuSE's making me braindead. Dunno exactly, But did you make sure you
initialize the modules in the correct sequence in the modules.conf ? Can you
tell me how you configured it in the first place? On RedHat, i fiddled with
the conf.modules for long enough, but it didnt seem to work... so what i did
was 'insmod'ed them in the correct sequence in my /etc/rc.d/boot.local .
Maybe you'd like to try that.
