Thanks Sophia, the linux port is now up to date with DSB 0.74.

Hi, I've reimplemented some sound routines using the SDL Mixer 2.0 library.

Allegro 5 handled the samples well but instead of using Allegro 5 for sound and Allegro 4 for ...

Good guess! I've ifndef-ed out the code in read_current_music_info since it contained some FMOD references, but not in write_current_music_info . This is now fixed and loading works.

Hi, I'm Marek, born in mid '70s in Poland, where I still live. I'm a software developer.
