Re: [newbie-it] Soundcards
soundcards: OPTi sound system e OPTi SoundExpression MPU-401. La prima saundcard ha il Tool di configurazione che manda il messaggio: modprobe: Can't locate module isa-pnp. Grazie per gli eventuali consigli Fabio Congiu Solo per farti perdere tempo, lo so. Ho l'identico problema, finanche la stessa scheda. Non consola me, credo sia lo stesso per te; cmq mi unisco all'appello.

[newbie-it] Soundcards
ho un problema: non funziona bene l'audio. Ho usato sndconfig per configurarlo ed è andato tutto bene. Quando ho riavviato la macchina però il suono è scomparso. Su HardDrake vengono menzionate due soundcards: OPTi sound system e OPTi SoundExpression MPU-401. La prima saundcard ha il Tool di configurazione che manda il messaggio: modprobe: Can't locate module isa-pnp. Grazie per gli eventuali consigli Fabio Congiu
[newbie] changing soundcards in Mandrake 8?
I've just swapped my SB Live! out of my machine and enabled the onboard VIA AC'97 audio instead. I checked harddrake and the module via82cxxx_audio seems to be loaded. The module for the Live! card seems to be no longer loaded. However, I seem to have lost all sound running any multimedia application (including Realplayer, XMMS etc) at all in my machine. I ran the Soundmixer (kmix) and it only claims Invalid mixer Creative SBLive. Is there any way to get Mandrake to use the VIA sound instead, short of re-installing Mandrake? Thanks in advance for any help.
[newbie] ESS Soundcards
I have and ESS Soundcard but on boot up if always fails. IRQs, DMA and I/o is correct. Running sndconf also fails on trying to play a test file. Sound runs in KDE. Any Help Cheers R.Booysen
[newbie] re: soundcards
Thank you to all who replied back to my email in regards to soundcards. I will try all suggestions and get back to all of you. I agree that configuring soundcards is a way to get "your hands dirty" with the new system OS. I don't want another M$ OS and do enjoy command line operations. If configuring a sound card is a simple task, then that just reflects my newbie desire to learn more. Thanks again. Regards, Jon

You can configure the sound card with 'sndconfig'. You'll need to know the sound card's i/o port, irq, dma, 16-bit dma. If you have a Sound Blaster or a clone, these values are usually 220, 5, 1, 5. You can check in the Windows Device Manager, or it'll scroll by during bootup. The surest way to get sound is to recompile your kernel and build in sound support. If you're running a stock Mandrake 5.3 installation, you're running kernel 2.0.36. I would recommend upgrading to the latest kernel 2.2.6. OK, good luck, Hidong

If it's not, you'll probably have to do the sound configuration by hand. It's not difficult, but it's not as easy as choosing items from the sndconfig screen. -- Steve Philp [EMAIL PROTECTED] I also had the same problem. I got a sb16, and the problem was because of my dma settings. 16 bit dma request was 3, but there was no selection of that in the sndconfig. So I did it manually, included the sound in kernel. Now it works fine.
