It isn't working with the current kernel (2.6.12-1.1390_FC4) but it did with 2.6.12-1.1387_FC4, and also with 2.6.12 when I compiled it. I have always found the sound wizard (System Settings=>Soundcard Detection) completely useless. If sound is working it makes a noise, and tells you sound is working. If sound is not working it tells you sound is not working. Surely it should at least suggest something one might try. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
