In all fairness Aaron, I was replying to Arun, who does appear to have some sort of DNS problem. I was thinking of posting your problem to the alsa-user, and alsa-devel lists, but as it appears to have worsened with the latest version of Fedora, it appears to be more of some sort of permissions problem within Fedora, than an Alsa problem, but you already appear to know that. Personally, if sound was working on F7, I'd reinstall that. That way at least the sound is working. Also I would try a live cd (Knoppix for example), and see if the sounds are ok. Also, if you have sufficient harddrive space, install another distro, and see if the isa card is detected, and working ok. Someone else had suggested getting a cheap pci card, and using that, and forgetting about the onboard isa one, which could be a good idea, if your getting so many problems with the isa one. On one of my machines I have an ensoniq pci card (ens1371). I have an isa slot on the mobo on this machine, and had an isa card lying about (sb16), and plugged it in. I only set it up on FC3, and it worked ok, but did want to grab the card0 position, which meant that the ensoniq card had to be set to card1. I also have FC6 available on this machine, but havn't tried configuring the isa soundcard on it. I may well try it, as you said you had problems getting the isa soundcard modules loaded on FC6. All the best. Nigel.
