Wahur Would this be happening if she doesn't have the procinfo-18-3mdk.rpm installed? (Just checking) Hello all, I have sound in windows; so I wonder if it could be a loose cable. I just installed the procinfo from my cd. When I entered it in Konsole it gave me alot of information, but what am I looking for? A friend asked if I have a bridge in the hardware. I looked in hardware but no bridge is mentioned. Could this be a problem? Thanks again.Brenda I think under bridges in Mandrake control center hardware bridges there needs to be a cardbus controller to use any cards in a PCI slot.

Among the many functions on the motherboard provided by the chipset is the CPU to PCI bridge. If the correct driver for this is not loaded by the operating system, it won't work or will work inefficiently. Sorry if you've answered this before, but what make is your motherboard (i.e. who's chipset does it use?) Someone else is going to have to jump in and tell you how to find out what you've got or how to install what you want, 'cos i'm still real new (like 3 weeks) at Linux. If you have sound in Windows but not in ML it's not a hardware problem, it's a driver for something somewhere!

Re: lspci command doesn't work [was]: Re: [newbie] Sound Blaster sound card not detected
PS As has been said before, the Ensoniq based SB cards can be a trifle uncooperative! There are several versions of them, and the drivers do not seem to be interchangeable. I have one here that was working when I transferred it to the Mandrake 9.0 box which was then unable to see it. I solved the problem by getting a SB Live card. By the way, I haven't been able to get the 128 working on a Windows box again either! I'm about to try the 4th set of SoundBlaster 128 PCI drivers. Don't take it personally.

You don't have a SoundBlaster 16. You have an Ensoniq AudioPCI. Go here http://www.americas.creative.com/support/welcome.asp and search for your model number. Dig around the support materials and see if you can identify if it has Linux capability. I have something similar in my comp. SB16 written on the box and Mdk says its Ensoniq. Probably little better model though - there are four plugs instead of three that Brenda has. Was recognised on install and works flawlessly. Except when I once plugged speakers to my disabled VIA onboard card ;-) Maybe Brenda has some onboard stuff as well, causing conflict? Wahur Hi, I did have an onboard sound system, but I did disable it in the bias, but no luck on detection. Thanks all for your help. You are great. Brenda Does Mandrake Control Centre - hardware - harddrake detect your card? It should! Btw you have a soundblaster 16 PCI which only has a similar name as the old SB 16 ISA cards but is completely different and based on an Ensoniq chip as already said. Creative Labs marketing creating confusion :( HTH, -Frans I have checked MCC but there is no sound card detected. When I run sndconfig it doesn't detect the card. I pick the card from the list and it tells me: The following error occured running the modprobe program: /lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/es1371.o.gz: init_module: No such device modprobe: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/es1371.o.gz failed modprob: insmod sound-slot-0 failed I don't understand this stuff. Thanks again. Brenda Does 'lspci -v' list your card? -Frans (I also don't understand 'this stuff' :) ) Sorry. I don't understand what 'lspci-v' is. Where do I need to look?
