Hello, Everyone On our Fedora Core 5 system, the output of "rpm -qa | grep alsa" is as follows: [root@afolkey2 ~]# rpm -qa | grep alsa alsa-lib-devel-1.0.11-4.rc2 alsamixergui-0.9.0-0.2.rc1.fc5 alsa-tools-1.0.10-2.fc5 alsa-lib-1.0.11-4.rc2 alsa-utils-1.0.11-4.rc2 "yum list | grep alsa" outputs the following: [root@afolkey2 ~]# yum list | grep alsa ftp://mirror.newnanutilities.org/pub/fedora/linux/extras/5/i386/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 4] IOError: <urlopen error (-2, 'Name or service not known')> Trying other mirror. alsa-lib.i386 1.0.11-4.rc2 installed alsa-lib-devel.i386 1.0.11-4.rc2 installed alsa-tools.i386 1.0.10-2.fc5 installed alsa-utils.i386 1.0.11-4.rc2 installed alsamixergui.i386 0.9.0-0.2.rc1.fc5 installed balsa.i386 2.3.12-1.fc5 extras kadu-alsa_sound.i386 0.5.0-0.6.20060730svn. extras As this "appears" to show that there are no other "alsa" packages in Core or Extras, and since I have no "alsasound" service my FC5 machine, how would one go about getting that service?
