The problem that some people are seeing is that soundcard is correctly discovered and tested during the install phase. It's not until later that you realize you suddenly lost the sound. So...it's the default configuration following an install that's got it wrong. It would be nice, perhaps, if Red Hat could provide an update to system-config-soundcards that resets the mixer configuration to something usable like it did during the install. How that's done, I don't know... -- Ed Wilts, RHCE Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program
