Hi guys, Like many people, I'm having alsa problems on FC2. Can't get it to make a peep. But I have a problem I've never seen mentioned: In alsamixer, the PCM column has no volume # associated with it at all! I don't mean that it has a value of "0". I mean, where each slider shows its volume #, my alsamixer doesn't have any text at all. Would someone mind explaining to me how this can be? Here are my details: - Intel 865PE-based board. 'lspci' tells me that my sound hardware is this: "Intel Corp. 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02)" - I had this problem with FC2's alsa software, so I upgraded to the 1.0.5/1.0.5(a) versions of the packages. I still have a problem. - Here's the results of "lsmod | grep snd": snd_mixer_oss 14592 0 snd_intel8x0 27564 0 snd_ac97_codec 57476 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_pcm 69896 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_timer 17796 1 snd_pcm snd_page_alloc 8584 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm gameport 3328 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_mpu401_uart 5376 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_rawmidi 17956 1 snd_mpu401_uart snd_seq_device 6792 1 snd_rawmidi snd 40932 8 snd_mixer_oss,snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_mpu401_uart,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device soundcore 6112 1 snd Any help is most appreciated. I can't figure out where to go from here. Thanks very much, Christian
