I have an MCP51 chipset and I don't have any issues in Fedora 11. Are you sure Alsa is installed properly on your machine? Run alsa-info to get diagnostic info. If there is a problem with Alsa, you can try upgrading or re-installing Alsa drivers and utilities. Kurian On Wed, Dec 2, 2009 at

You can try bcm43xx-fwcutter (If you have a bcm43xx WiFi chip) or ndiswrapper. fwcutter should be convenient because the kernel module for ndiswrapper needs to be built every time you upgrade to a new kernel. Google for Broadcom Wifi under Linux and fwcutter. There's a lot of howtos available

Did you check your volume and switches in the mixer? Many soundcards share mic jacks with line-in or rear/side speakers. For that you can either use the mixer from the volume control icon in the notification area or run alsamixer -c0 from the command line On 03/23/2009 09:34 PM, BINNY THOMAS
