Morning.
I've upgraded from RH9 to Fedora Core 2. All went very smoothly. Only
problem is getting sound working.
I'm using the Nvidia nforce drivers - downloaded the current set:
NFORCE-Linux-x86-1.0-0283-pkg1.run
Seems like a really nice installation script. No problems at first.
Followed through their documentation and got the eth0 driver working,
but I've some issues getting sound working using nvsound.
My modprobe.conf file is:
alias usb-controller ohci-hcd
alias ieee1394-controller ohci1394
options ne irq=10
alias eth0 nvnet
alias usb-interface usb-ohci
#alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
alias snd-card-0 nvsound
install sound-slot-0 /sbin/modprobe --first-time --ignore-install
sound-slot-0 && { /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L >/dev/null 2>&1
|| :; }
remove sound-slot-0 { /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S >/dev/null
2>&1 || :; } ; /sbin/modprobe -r --first-time --ignore-remove
sound-slot-0
I don't know where the install and remove lines came from or what they
do. Should they be there? What should be in this file?
You'll see 2 snd-card-0 entries. When using the snd-intel8x0 module I
could get sound to work, but each time I reboot xmms is silenced and I
have to go through sound card detection using system-config-soundcard. I
can then run xmms with no problems
Following the nvidia release notes and replacing the snd-intel8x0 line
to the nvsound line leaves me problems. When running xmms I get the
"Cannot Open Audio" message box. However, when using
system-config-soundcard *both* snd-intel8x0 and nvsound entries appear
in the tabbed dialog and both work fine when clicking "Play Test Sound".
Should the snd-intel8x0 entry be there even when commented out of
modproble.conf?
Finally, I'm also getting a few nvsound error messages in dmesg:

Too much information? Not enough?
Many thanks for any help.
