I just went through this, setting up F8 on a brand new laptop with an Intel Audio Controller. After spending most of a day working on it, the magic combination that worked for me was putting this into /etc/modprobe.conf: alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel options snd-card-0 index=0 options snd-hda-intel model=toshiba There are several different "model=" options that you can use, including "3stack", "acer", "auto" and so on. Google will give you some of the others. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com
