I have C-Media 8738 sound card built into my IWill KK-266plusR motherboard and have just goten a Creative Inspire 5300 5.1 sourround sound set of speakers for my Mandrake 8.1 box which uses Alsa 0.5.10. Unfortunately when I first tried to use them I only got sound out of the subwoofer and left front channel. I have already done some searching around the net and found out I have to set the number of speakers used from 2 to 6 in the kernel config. I have done that, rebuilt my kernel, and installed it. Now I get front left, subwoofer, and the rear speakers going, but I stll can't get the front right or center channel to output sound. Let me note that the setup works perfectly fine in Windows so I'm pretty sure all the wires are connected correctly from the speakers to the machine. Can anyone help me to get all my stuff up and working?
