[newbie] Still sound problem
I'm not having much luck with sound. I installed Mandrake onto another computer (where again W98 has sound), and I get the same sort of error messages - seem to point to INT and I/O conflicts. Thing is, whatever combination of these I try, sound doesn't work. Nor does it help to allow the BIOS to automatically organise the PNP/ISA settings. I know at least one other person on the list has been having the same problem recently. Not much documentation on this subject to be found. Tried: hardrake sndconfig modprobe Lucky it's a rainy weekend. Anyone had this problem and fixed it?

I assume there's an error log or something somewhere that will help me isolate the cause. Where can I find it please? Tell ya what...start the app from the command line and while it's running watch the output to the screen. Then, if and when it crashes you should see the reason for the crash in the screen output.

On many motherboards, the pci slots have IRQ's assigned to them. With Windows, this usually isn't a problem, because Win allows IRQ sharing with most devices. There are some exceptions, but generally, that is true. Linux doesn't share IRQ's, so if you have a card in a slot that is assigned IRQ 10 and your ethernet card in another slot requires IRQ 10 and the slot is assigned 10 and 11 and your video card uses 11, well, you can see what happens. Some motherboards simply will not allow you to change IRQ settings for particular slots--you're stuck. The only solution is to move the offending card to another slot, hopefully you have a free one and something else doesn't require the IRQ that is assigned to that one. Now that we have so many devices in our boxes this is a really common occurance. I just ran into it with the above ethernet example. No way the card could share an IRQ, and all my pci slots were filled. Moving cards didn't work, but if I pulled my modem card it would work. I finally installed an ISA card.

I have tried pretty much everything the group has recommended so far...I also tried a bunch of stuff on deja as well. I tried to update the drivers but it said there was a kernel conflict. At one point before I reinstalled, it said something about the device or resource being busy but I don't remember exactly. Also when trying to configure it using harddrake (in root on the command prompt) and it said that it couldn't adjust the volume because it didn't have a mixer. Hell if I know...I am about to give up on it...oh well Thanks for everyones help Mr. Smith
Re: [newbie] still sound...
Try upgradeing your KDElibs/KDEsoundlibs. There should be new versions available in MandrakeUpdate. That's what got my live value working in KDE. Try using drakconf and it's "hardware configuration" to set it up. try insmod emu10k1, not that alsa drive too. steve d...
