I have followed various threads about this but I have never got sound with Linux on this machine, whose sound hardware is working under dualboot Windoz.
Hardware: Dell 4500 with 82801BA/BAM AC'97.
OS: FC3 2.6.10-1.770
I have followed the advice as far as muting headphone and line-jack sense, to no avail.
Also, when running the sound-detection applet, I have tried answering yes or no, with no results.
My /etc/modprobe.conf:
alias eth0 3c59x
alias eth1 dmfe
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
options snd-card-0 index=0
install snd-intel8x0 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-intel8x0 && /usr/sbin/a lsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/mo dprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0
alias usb-controller uhci-hcd

Also, is it possible that by having an unused pda-usb cable plugged into the usb port, to be confusing this? Reason for this question is that the usb hardware also has Intel 82801BA/BAM, listed as the device.
Thank you all. -nat
