[Kwintv] garbled sound

[Tom Baker]

hello:

i have installed kdetv. all seems to work mostly well, other than the garbled 
sound i get on all channels. this only happens with kdetv; no other 
application that uses sound (say goggles!) has this problem. so i am rashly 
assuming that it is something to do with kdetv!

fyi, i thought that the initial card i purchased was defective; i returned it 
for the current one with the same results!

Harry is heavily into camping, and every year in the late fall, he makes us
all go to Assateague, which is an island on the Atlantic Ocean famous for
its wild horses.  I realize that the concept of wild horses probably stirs
romantic notions in many of you, but this is because you have never met any
wild horses in person.  In person, they are like enormous hooved rats.  They
amble up to your camp site, and their attitude is: "We're wild horses.
We're going to eat your food, knock down your tent and poop on your shoes.
We're protected by federal law, just like Richard Nixon."
