Subject: [linux-audio-user] still have bad sound

Greetings:

  I've narrowed down some parts of my current problems with sound. The
mouse is definitely a noise-maker: I move, I get a not-nice ripping
noise that tracks along with the mouse movement. I had hoped that the
problem would be the nVidia binary video driver, but the problem occurs
with the kernel sources driver as well. I've appended some background
info in case anyone sees an obvious flaw in the system.

  A couple of things: I have no USB devices on this machine, so how can
I get rid of the usb-uhci stuff hanging off the same interrupt as the
SBLive ? Also, would it do any good to switch slots ?

  I've tried a number of different changes to XF86Config, got no joy
from any. :( I've been working through the various suggestions from the
Audio Quality HOWTO, nothing has worked yet. I'm open to any other
non-$$$ suggested solutions...

Best regards,

dp
