RE: [newbie] No sound for NeoMagic 256AV
OK, i found the sndconfig package and installed it. But it didnt work anyway, it said i didnt have a kernel with 'modular sound' enabled. How would go about enabling this in the kernel?

How would go about enabling this in the kernel? Is the soundcore module loaded ( '/sbin/lsmod' ) ? If not, as root, what does 'modprobe soundcore' report ? -Frans

Re: [newbie] No sound for NeoMagic 256AV
Hash: SHA1 David, Are you sure the Neomagic 256AV is a *sound* card? The same card in my ThinkPad is for *video*, and my sound card is an ESS Solo something-or-other. Dave I owned a acer laptop. it has a neomagic video card, and ess sound card. the mandrake can detect the sound card, but no sound coming out from the speaker. the msg says that there is no sound card to be found, strange! anyone ever encounter this. im using mandrake 8, before this i used mandrake 7.2 and my sound card work well. but since i upgraded my comp to mandrake 8.0, my comp in mute mode now. :( ok thanks. willy
[newbie] No sound for NeoMagic 256AV
I've just installed Mandrake 8.0 on my Dell Inspiron 3500 Laptop, but have not had any success with sound. Is the NeoMagic 256AV (MagicWave 3DX) sound card supported? I was led to believe that it was especiallly since numerous sources online indicated that the 2.4.x kernel supported it. HardDrake recognized the card, but it will not run...startup indicates some errors, but the're reported on the screen too quickly for me to see. Is there a module in Mandrake 8.0 somewhere (I heard that a module nm256 exists). How does one install this. Failing that, can someone recommend the most painfree work around (ALSA, OSSFree, etc)??? thanks, -dave David L. Dufeau Vertebrate Paleontology Laboratory J.J.
