hey i just recently installed zsnes on my aspire one and ive played a couple of roms but all without sound i have checked all volume levels i was wondering if i have to add any alsa packages or not
 
I have the same problem, and while I'm at it. How's everyones FPS? I get around 30fps which is about 50% of the correct running speed (50/60 is the correct running speed). Anyone know how I can improve this, or are we doomed to run snes roms on half the speed?
 
I got it working quite well with these settings:

- install zsnes
- install alsa-oss with package manager
- start zsnes
- change sound sampling rate to 480000 khz
- set video to CUSTOM 1024x600
- restart zsnes

voilá, should work nicely!
 
well i went and installed the alsa oss devel and its main files using yum and restarted zsnes and configured the sound to 48000 and still no sound maybe theres something else i gotta do........
 
Hmmmm... I'm not familiar with Fedora, but I didn't use the yum. Is there any difference with yum and that gui installer (Add/remove software)? I'm quite certain it installed something else dependant to alsa-oss, though I don't remember what :)

Try using that gui installer...

My audio settings:

- audio on
- stereo on
- sampling 48000Hz
- gaussian interpolation

Hope it helps... Zsnes & Secret of Mana and Chrono Trigger works like charm on this little machine! :)
 
By the way, my FPS is around 57-60 with these video settings:

Resolution:
- CUSTOM OD F, 1024x600
Filters:
- Bilinear
- Eagle

All other settings in their defaul values...
 
I played around with this before reading your reply. I read some stuff about ALSA and Oss so I installed something called alsa-plugins-oss which provide "Oss PCM output plugin for ALSA". I tried it and it worked! But only once, I think rebooted and tried again and it was gone, sound didnt work. I tried what you wrote in your post but no luck, still no sound.

I don't have a problem with speed though if I run the same settings as you though :)
 
i cant descompresed files of zsnes that i dowload from many pages, in all cases said me:"an error ocurred while accessing archive"
i use linpus with xarchiver, and CANT EVEN UNCOMPRES THE FILE

PLEASE HELP
 
hey guys sorry haven't replied in a while but anyway i followed all the posted directions and still no sound i even re imaged the one and install zsnes and still nothing
 
When I had the linux version on test and I tried zsnes I got sound just by running zsnes with the "-ad oss"
switch, didn't need to install any packages.
 
I run ZSNES from terminal with "-ad oss" ONCE... Now the sounds work without doing that. Dunno if it's because of that switch or something else.
 
I know u will find the question stupid but what are the command to type to run zsnes or any programms from the terminal... :?:
 
Normally you can just type the name of the program.

So, just "zsnes" should work
