Well there's another problem that goes along with this. If the sound card is on within the Bios and my father boots his computer up to Gnome when he logs in the icons do not appear. What might be causing this? I was getting a message about too many things being on a serial prot and that 8250 worked too hard. I pulled out one of the offending items a Windows modem.

So I don't think this is your problem. run aplay -lLv to see if there are any sound cards recognized and if alsa has defined any aliases. Then run aplay -D hw:0,0 some.wav if there is at least one sound card. If this works, you have a configuration/cabling issue. Check that the sound card you played is the one with speakers. Then use an application like xmms to change the sound to the appropriate driver and play a song. If you have no sound cards, it is possible that the sound is not supported by alsa or it is turned off in the bios. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list -- No virus found in this incoming message.
