Thanks Scott. The funny thing is if I put the laptop in hibernate and bring it out of hibernate the sound then begin to work. If I restart then the sound refuse to work. The chipset that I have uses the intel8x0 module. The sound works under Ubuntu linux also, but I prefer FC4 I have always used either Slackware (server), or Redhat Desktop and I don't like Ubuntu even if the sound works. It also works under Suse 9x, so that tells me it is a FC4 config issue. What it is I don't know. Please help one of you Linux Gurus out there!!! --Kirk Anyway the laptop works great except that one sound issue. --- "Scot L.
