Re: [newbie] Sound -- probably revisited.
Well it's Sunday and I've finally gotten back to this little problem (after rewiring the phones in the house, and moving another computer and it's peripherals into the basement where it's /much/ cooler. So. Here is everything I've tried... I logged in as root. Ran sndconfig. The config went along well identifying the sound as CMI8330/C3D Audio Adapter (It is built in onto the motherboard and is a SB16). Final result, no sound. The modem I have is a 33.6 data/fax/voice modem. Not a win modem. Now here is something else that is strange. A friend of mine has the same hardware configuration except for ram and hdd size. He was originally running 5.2 and his sound worked just fine. We both installed 6.0 and sound on his machine disappeared also. Beo two of us are now frustrated but still hanging in there. :) On Wed, 21 Jul 1999, John Aldrich wrote: > Try logging in as "root" and running (in text console mode) "sndconfig" and > see if that doesn't work.

> Have you run 'sndconfig' yet? I know that Red Hat 5.1 has a program called setup that presents you with a menu of configurators to choose from. It might be in Mandrake, too. Try it.
Re: [newbie] Sound -- probably revisited.
Try logging in as "root" and running (in text console mode) "sndconfig" and see if that doesn't work. Default RedHat6/Mandrake 6 kernels SHOULD come with the SB16 sound installed. What are the settings on this card, btw? Are they the "standard" IRQ5 (or 7) I/O 220, etc? or are they non-standard? Also, is this an ISP PNP card or is this one of the old "jumper-configured" cards? What else do you have (hardware wise) in your system which might be conflicting with the sound card? What about a modem? What brand/model of modem do you have in there? Is it a card, and if so, ISA or PCI? (Chances are if it's PCI, it's a "WinModem" with one known exception, and if so, ditch it, 'cause it wont' work!)

Oh yes, that was the first thing that I ran. It seems to have no effect at all. :( On Wed, 21 Jul 1999, Matt Stegman wrote: > Have you run 'sndconfig' yet? > > -Matt > > On Wed, 21 Jul 1999, Beo d'Wulfie wrote: > > > The soundcard I'm using is a sb16. > > It doesn't work.

[newbie] Sound -- probably revisited.
I'm new to the list, and very new to Linux. The only thing I've mastered at this point is how to do the installation from a cd. *chuckle* Anyhow, here is my problem and my apologies if this has been covered before. I've installed RH6.0/mandrake. The soundcard I'm using is a sb16. It doesn't work. I've gone through the help docs and followed their instructions but still no go. Can anyone help with this??? A few things to note: - Yes, the speakers are turned on. - Yes, the system bell does come through the internal speaker. - No, I don't know how to decompress a module or recompile a kernal, but I'm a quick study and will find out how if this is what it takes to correct the problem. Thanks everyone. Beo the newly frustrated. ---Beo d'Wulfie 'We all enter this world in the same way: naked; screaming; soaked in blood.
