if you don't know, then bring up a terminal (menu - system tools - terminal) and type this: /sbin/lspci
let us know what it is.
you may also want to install sndconfig (as root) : yum install sndconfig and then run sndconfig
Ok here we go!
I typed the lspci command and got a lot of info. not sure what exactly you need to know.
I have info on:
Host Bridge PCI bridge ISA Bridge IDE bridge USB interface Bridge Ethernet controler PCI bridge VGA compatible controller
What do you need to know?
I'm working on installing sndconfig and will give updates later.
I also noted in the Hardware Browser window the following under sound cards:
CS4236B: game CS4232 (driver) CS4236B: MPU CS4232 (driver) CS4236B: WSS/SB ad1848 (driver)
So it seems to me the machine knows the on-board sound is there. Does that make sense?
Thanks!
