Go to /etc/modules.conf with a text editor and add:- # ALSA native device support alias char-major-116 snd alias snd-card-0 snd-card-via8233 If there is anythy other sound chip support, hash (#) it out. Then go to Mandrake control center and make sure you have aRts enabled, if you want multi chanel sound configuration. Then go to the sound mixer app in kstart menu and make sure all the led's are bright green ( not midgreen which is the default, and rather confusing). Good quality sound is then enabled. The via 8233 sound chip is OK and once the above is enabled it works flawlessly john -- John Richard Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED]
