Samir,
Which Yamaha Chip set is it? Most likely, it is not supported because Yamaha won't
release their codes to ALSA. So you will have
to fork-out $30 ($20 + $10 for the Yamaha Module) for a driver from
http://www.opensound.com. If you take that route you'll need to
remember the following:
Because of a Known Bug: When starting up the OSS sound driver, you will have to
include this in your /etc/rc.d/rc.local
soundon
soundoff
soundon
For some reason it won't start with the first soundon command and OSS is aware of this
problem.
Good Luck,
Seve
P.S. Boycott Yamaha or the motherboards upon which they come. This might then send a
message to their arrogance & ignorance.
