Arash Vahdat You might want to open up a term window, type lsmod and see if you have the following listed: emu10k164096 2 (autoclean) ac97_codec 11904 0 (autoclean) [emu10k1] sound 72012 0 (autoclean) [emu10k1] soundcore 6692 7 (autoclean) [emu10k1 sound] If you DO, then there is a problem with the sound server - are you using KDE or GNOME? If you DON'T, you're going to need to run harddrake (the Hardware Wizard) to see if you can identify the hardware again. Generally, the SB Live! is fairly common and should have been recogized at the beginning of your installation - something you might want to check as well is if in your system's BIOS, the PNP OS feature is set to OFF...

Re: [newbie] Soundcard problem
I think sndconfig could solve the problem, just install the rpm and run the package, it should detect and configure your sound-card automatically.

Re: [newbie] Soundcard problem
Have you tried running sndconfig and/or sounddrake? Also, check your volume levels with aumix.
