It was with volume control in FC2 but now I get a text based control panel and do not see it in any menu, but the volumes are up alsamixer is v1.0.6 > 2, Go to RedHat-> Sound and Video -> Volume control.

Grip works, the only one I didn't try, but it won't open grip when the CD is inserted. On the desktop audio disc pops up but when I went to properties and tried to add grip it said it couldn't add it to the database. > Or be a little more specific about what happens when you try to play > the CD. Nothing would happen, no sound, the progress bar didn't move, or the EQ levels. But it's odd that it won't let me view the contents, just says audio CD 0 files, or on the desktop I click on it and nothing happens except the sound I get when I open something only it won't open. Something must have broken with an update. So grip it is, I don't play many CD's anyway and it works. Thanks Tim...
