I will need to take a look and see.
The error comes when I try to go into the preferences for the sound. I am not trying to play anything in particular but my attempts have been with mp3's so yes with xmms and also CD's. I have not tried to play a video file so I have not used totem yet.
I will have to see if I can find the sound card that is on that machine when I get home and run the config software that comes with Mandrake.

I have installed mandrake 10 on my micron u360 laptop (old) but it doesn't seem to have sound drivers installed. When I try to run anything that requires sound it tells me that it can't find the audio mixer or something to that affect.
My speaker icon makes it seem like I have sound yet I get that error. It is not X'd out. I don't know what chipset I have cause I don't have the manual.
Does anyone know where I can find any generic drivers that I can install to see if I can try to get some sound?
Thanks,Need more info. What player do you want to use? Does xmms start? Does totem start? Have you tried to configure the sound system? What error messages are you getting? Most of the drivers required are included in 10.0. What sound card? -- Regards; Hoyt Registered Linux User #363264 http://counter.li.org
