Re: [newbie] Re: soundcard
goto this site for the driver. http://www.zabbo.net/maestro3/ within that same link, it will provide a link for you to goto alsa which also has drivers for your card.

Re: [Fwd: [newbie] Re: soundcard config]
It worked! Actually, I figured out that the Terminal emulation icon is on the Kmenu-bar and is the vehicle for inputting commands. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! : )
Re: [Fwd: [newbie] Re: soundcard config]
Thanks very much! Coincidentally, I'd tried that by chance before I opened my mail, today... and lo and behold it works...exactly as you described it. Thanks very much for your support! It's heartwarming to note so many people are willing to help like you just did!
Re: [Re: [Fwd: [newbie] Re: soundcard config]]
Thanks! It worked!
Re: [Fwd: [newbie] Re: soundcard config]
Wow! Thanks for your reply..however! I can't seem to figure out where the command line is inside the KDE or how to get to it in order to issue the sndco nfig command! Any ideas? : ) Thanks, again! Mani

Any ideas? : ) You're booting straight into KDE, right? :-) On your taskbar at the bottom, you should see a big "K" Click on that, then go to "utilities" and then "konsole" At that point, you're at a command-line interface prompt. Type "su" (all lower case, minus quotes) and put in the "root" password when prompted (if you're not logging in as "root" which is a **BAD** idea, unless you're doing "maintenance" type stuff!!!) Then, once you've gotten "superuser" access, type "sndconfig" (minus quotes.) John
Re: [Fwd: [newbie] Re: soundcard config]
Manithere are quite a few different ways to do most anything in Linux. I believe that the following method will serve you best in this case. 1. press ctl-alt f2 2. sign in as root 3. type setup 3. choose 'sound card configuration' (it's the same as sndconfig) 4. when done, quit from setup 5. type exit at the command line 6. press ctl-alt f7 (gets you back where you started) Alan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Wow!

Linux users should expect to have to roll up their sleeves and start getting intimate with their system's hardware, even before they attempt their first install. What better way than to have one of the first things to do post install, than something as simple a setting up their sound card? IMO, to expect Linux to be (backwards) compatible right out of the box with everything and everyone ... is to wish it were just another M$ Windows product. Then you'd also have to expect all the problems and bloat we seen with tryin to be all things to all people. I also think it's like 'lookin a gift horse in the mouth' to complain about Linux not being current with all the hardware. As long as the people involved are developing the OS on a 'pro bono' basis, things like hardware support just aren't gonna happen till the hardware's already been released and in general use, and even then, not without the support of the manufacturers. -- ..
