I don't understand why this is so hard to get a 16-bit ISA sound card working. It worked fine in FC3 and FC4. Anyway, here's the output of system-config-soundcard: [root@electron ~]# system-config-soundcard cat: /etc/asound.conf: No such file or directory amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such device cat: /proc/asound/pcm: No such file or directory The popup window detects that I have a "SB16 PnP - CTL0031" but when I play the test sound, it immediately just comes back with "Did you hear the sample sound". I answer NO. It tells me to read /root/scsound.log, which is listed here: ------- System Config Soundcard -------- Sun Apr 16 10:47:03 EDT 2006 ------- lspci -------- 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 440BX/ZX/DX - 82443BX/ZX/DX Host bridge (rev 03) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 440BX/ZX/DX - 82443BX/ZX/DX AGP bridge (rev 03) 00:07.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ISA (rev 02) 00:07.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 IDE (rev 01) 00:07.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 USB (rev 01) 00:07.3 Bridge: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ACPI (rev 02) 00:11.0 Ethernet controller: Lite-On Communications Inc LNE100TX (rev 21) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage Pro AGP 1X/2X (rev 5c) ------- lsmod -------- Module Size Used by snd 55109 0 soundcore 13345 1 snd autofs4 22981 1 hidp 24001 2 l2cap 31681 5 hidp bluetooth 52901 2 hidp,l2cap dm_mirror 24081 0 dm_mod 54745 1 dm_mirror ipv6 246433 26 sd_mod 20545 0 sg 36317 0 lp 16265 0 parport_pc 29413 1 parport 38281 2 lp,parport_pc floppy 61829 0 nvram 12617 0 usb_storage 66593 0 spca5xx 651344 0 scsi_mod 129641 3 sd_mod,sg,usb_storage videodev 13505 1 spca5xx uhci_hcd 33233 0 tulip 51297 0 i2c_piix4 12497 0 i2c_core 24769 1 i2c_piix4 ext3 121417 2 jbd 56917 1 ext3 ------- /etc/modprobe.conf -------- alias snd-card-0 snd-sb16 options snd-card-0 index=0 install snd-sb16 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-sb16 && /usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || : remove snd-sb16 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-sb16 alias usb-controller uhci-hcd alias eth0 tulip ------- /etc/asound.conf -------- ------- aplay -l -------- aplay: device_list:222: no soundcards found... ------- amixer -------- ------- /proc/asound/version -------- Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.11rc2 (Wed Jan 04 08:57:20 2006 UTC). ------- rpm -q alsa-lib -------- alsa-lib-1.0.11-3.rc2.2 ------- rpm -q alsa-utils -------- alsa-utils-1.0.11-3.rc2 ------- /proc/asound/modules -------- ------- /proc/asound/pcm -------- ------- system-config-soundcard -------- Wrong card index 0... /usr/share/system-config-soundcard/soundcard.py:273: DeprecationWarning: use gtk.ComboBox self.primarySubDeviceOptionMenu = gtk.OptionMenu() /usr/share/system-config-soundcard/soundcard.py:308: GtkDeprecationWarning: gtk.timeout_add is deprecated, use gobject.timeout_add instead self.timer = gtk.timeout_add (100, self.checkStatus, self) /usr/share/system-config-soundcard/soundcard.py:548: GtkDeprecationWarning: gtk.TRUE is deprecated, use True instead gtk.main() ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:1305:(_snd_pcm_hw_open) Invalid value for card aplay: main:547: audio open error: No such device Hopefully this means something to someone. Any guesses appreciated. Let me reiterate, IT WORKED IN FC4 up until 16 hours ago. The speakers ARE turned on. I've checked all the obvious stuff like whether or not the computer is plugged in.
