Re: Sound card not working in Fedora Core 3

Still struggling with sound card.

I have already installed new version of the driver, 1.0.8 but still not
able to get the sound card work.

also documentation site and bug list site on alsa is not working
properly, i get some php error.

I am not sure if my lspci list is posted to the mailing list so sending
it once again. Please help.

Most important thing baffling me is, which sound card i am using. as i
mentioned in windows it shows soundmax ( please see my first post ) and
linux identifies it as intel ac97. If i got to ALSA site, which should i
select? intel ->proper chip set ? because i dont see soundmax in the
list at ALSA site.

Thanks
