Hello Gang Sorry - but I am newbie to Linux. Solution to this problem may have already been posted. However - I am unable to get my soundcard working. Installed Fedora Core 3 on the following: Toshiba Satellite 4200 Pro 320Mb Ram 6Gb HD PIII 500MHz Soundcard : Yamaha DS1 Installation correctly identified the card and says the driver for it (snd-ymfpci) and the kernel module command says that the module has been loaded. Yet I still have no sound. Deeply frustrating as the card worked correctly under a recent installation of XP and initially also worked under an installation of Mandrake Linus before mysteriously stopping. Under the Mandrake Move CD session the Soundcard works with system sounds but not with Audio and MP3 CDs. Very frustrating. Like I say - I am new to this so it could be something I missed. I did the basic checks and found that the card had been defaulted to mute with most Sound applications. Changed this - but still no joy. Appreciate any help. regards Kevin regards Kevin Williams ___________________________________________________________ FREE weekend phone calls!
