Thanks for confirming that. There is still the problem though that booting with kernel 2.6.22.1-27.fc7 (alsa 1.0.14) produces no sound, but booting with an earlier kernel using alsa 1.0.14rc3 (where snd-hda-intel, and snd-hda-codec are separate modules), sound works with no problems, as it did on his FC6 install before upgrading to Fedora 7. I don't know if he had to set any options in /etc/modprobe.conf to get this card working, as many other folks have had to do, but will ask him. I've put a bit from one of his posts to the Fedora list below, with some info. The bit that stands out are the error messages that say: $ sudo grep hda-intel /var/log/messages.1 Jul 21 12:07:52 giles kernel: hda-intel: no codecs initialized <quote> > Dave Cross wrote: > > I've just upgraded my FC6 Dell Dimension to F7.

This is a desktop (Dell Dimension 5100), not a laptop. Googling for the chipset shows that many people have had similar problems. Which is, I suppose, comforting in one way :-) > You should look in /var/log/messages and see what it messages are > generated when the sound modules are loaded. $ sudo grep hda-intel /var/log/messages.1 Jul 21 12:07:52 giles kernel: hda-intel: no codecs initialized Jul 21 12:20:29 giles kernel: hda-intel: no codecs initialized Jul 21 12:28:25 giles kernel: hda-intel: no codecs initialized Those times correspond to the reboots I did yesterday trying to get this to work. <end of quote> And his /sbin/lsmod for the snd stuff.

Thank you for any help with this problem. Nigel. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
