Just a thought, as you say you have alsamixer showing for card0 (the snd-intel8x0 onboard one). I havn't used Mandriva since Mandrake 9.2, and Mandrake 10.0, and am not sure if you have to set this up manually, but are you a member of the audio group in /etc/group? On my Debian installs I've had to add my user name to the audio group to get audio apps working as user, whereas on my Fedora installs there is no audio group in /etc/group, and users being able to use audio apps normally only accessable as root, appears to be set up elsewhere. All I'm saying, is it may be worth checking to see if you have an audio group in /etc/group, and if so, is your user name attached to it, so that you can access audio apps as user. It may be worth running the alsa-conf.sh script again, and posting the link to it in your reply. All the best. Nigel. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
