Re: [newbie] Yamaha SoundCard
Linux doesn't give lower sound output than Win9x, it is just set that way by default. You can set sound volume by using a mixer programme like aumix (console or X), gmix (part of GNOME) or kmix (part of KDE).

Thank you in advance! All right then Julio, You'll need the ALSA sound drivers. Just download them as a .bz2 archive from www.alsa-project.org, then unzip the archive, change into the directory where you have them unpacked, then run the configure script ./configure make make install then run the attached snddevices script ./snddevices finally, add the following lines to your /etc/conf.modules (or modules.conf): # ALSA native device support alias char-major-116 snd options snd snd_major=116 snd_cards_limit=1 alias snd-card-0 snd-card-ymfpci options snd-card-interwave snd_index=0 snd_id="YMF724" # OSS/Free setup alias char-major-14 soundcore alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss That should do the trick! Oh, and just to be on the safe side: reboot first (and then don't forget to unmute the mixer with any given mixer app. There's one in KDE, and there's also an Enlightenment applet that will help you do that, or, alternatively, you might want to use the one from the alsa-utils package that you can download from the same site (go for the libraries as well, you might need them at some point) Cheerio, Pope Mickey XXIII, patron saint of all unenlightened lightbulbs, Zee Blue Rat Ov Kaos, Offender Of The Faith. __ "The earth is full of ghosts now Ghosts that sweat and ghosts that sigh Instead of peace just stop and cease A final and a sweet release" Coil, "The Dark Age Of Love" __

Hi out there. I installed Linux Mandrake 7.0 a couple of weeks ago, and I'm having difficulties with my soundcard. Its a Yamaha YMF 24, and it seems like one of the very few soundcards not supported by Linux. Am I right or is there someone out there who knows a solution to my problem. Christian (Denmark)
Re: [newbie] Yamaha Soundcard
You are correct the drivers are not included with Linux. It is supported by OSS however at http://www.4front-tech.com/linux.html. Hope this helps.
