I just performed a new (clean) install of FC2. MSI mobo with via chipset and audio on-board.
From watching this list and reading it appears that FC2 should have installed the alsa sound system by default. My system did not.
The listing of my sound modules loaded is below, and in my case it clearly uses the OSS driver and not alsa. Sound does work, but I have not tested the quality.
Did I miss something or did the promised alsa drivers not make it into this release?

I don't have a problem with the board, I wondered why the alsa drivbers did not load by default
I have used this board for about 2 years and have been really pleased with it using Linux, and since it was so stable and dependable I decided to use it for the FC2 install.
I did see one problem, and that is related to the drives and LBA config. It does not properly config the LBA parameters without manually telling it the CHS to use for LBA. Absolutely no other problems though and it just works
