But you also said that you were having issues with APIC. Since APIC handles IRQ interrupts for a lot of devices when it is enabled, it is possible that this is causing an interrupt conflict that is preventing sound from working. In 9.1, I initially turned APIC off in the BIOS when I did my install and had numerous problems with MB ethernet, USB ports, and mb sound because of inherent problems with installing Linux with conflicting interrupts. I thought that the install had gone well because of a lack of visible errors but then nothing ever worked right. Only be enabling APIC in the BIOS and using the noapic flag in lilo was I able to get an install going that actually worked with all of my devices. You may want to try enabling APIC in BIOS, reinstalling Linux using the noapic on the lilo load line for the install disk and then seeing if your results are better. -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer
