Hi All, Ok we are having another problem with the same computer in my post about the CD drives... Anyway this time the sound card does not work. It is a Sound Blaster Live and it got detected on OS install time and the modules are loaded at bootup but no sound is played. We have tried to do the automatic sound card detection but nothing is played when you try to test it said can't open output file /dev/dsp does not exist. We went so far as to d/l and install a vanilla kernel 2.6.10 to no avail. Can someone help us figure out what else we can do? Thank-you, Ryan
