I just installed MDK 8.2 on a empty partition of my computer. I also have 8.1 on a different partition. Sound works fine under 8.1 (using the default setup chosen by the installer). The system I use has sound built into the motherboard (MSI 845 Ultra) The MDK8.2 installer indentifies my sound "card" as a C-Media electronics Inc. CM8738 (which agrees with the motherboard documentation).
also, in case it matters, when I boot into MDK8.2 I get the follwoing message at one point: can't locate module fb.0 What does that mean? In case it helps here is the /etc/modules.conf file for MDK8.1 (the one that works): alias net-pf-4 ipx pre-install pcmcia_core CARDMGR_OPTS=-f /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia start alias usb-interface usb-uhci alias sound-slot-0 cmpci probeall scsi_hostadapter dc395x_trm alias eth0 8139too alias scsi_hostadapter dc395x_trm Under MDK8.2 I've tried /etc/modules.conf: alias net-pf-4 ipx alias usb-interface usb-uhci alias sound-slot-0 cmpci #alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-cmipci probeall scsi_hostadapter dc395x_trm alias eth0 8139too #above snd-card-cmipci snd-pcm-oss alias scsi_hostadapter dc395x_trm as well as: alias net-pf-4 ipx alias usb-interface usb-uhci alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-cmipci probeall scsi_hostadapter dc395x_trm alias eth0 8139too above snd-card-cmipci snd-pcm-oss alias scsi_hostadapter dc395x_trm I get no sound either way. When I try to test sound server using the Mandrake control center I get the message: Sound server fatal error: cpu overload, aborting. Does anybody have any ideas what to try next?
