The card is enabled in the BIOS, but does not appear in the lspci output. I don't really know the terminology, but taking another look at the manual that is exactly what it shows (a codec not the actual card). Here is a link to the guide: <http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/socka/kt133/a7v/a7v-104.pdf> Information is shown on page 8 and 12. I was also surprised to find that Asus supplies drivers that support RedHat 6.2. I have not tried these yet, but plan to try them (although I'd prefer to use the alsa drivers). Is this sound system not supported? -------- Original Message -------- From: Bill Unruh <unruh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Apparently from: alsa-user-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To: stonee@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Unable to configure ASUS A7V sound card with Alsa Date: Sat, 14 Feb 2009 22:46:18 -0800 (PST) > On Sat, 14 Feb 2009, stonee@xxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > > > I have an ASUS A7V motherboard that contains an integrated video, sound, and ethernet card. The sound card is an AC97. Currently Fedora Core 9 is installed with kernel 2.6.25-16 which is the default available with this release (this also uses udev). > > AC97 is not the hardware AFAIK but the codec.

So far nothing I've done has allowed me to have the card detected, including trying all of the AC97 modules (ATI, Intel, and VIA). Moreover, I know the card is an AC97 since I have the manual available. > > > > The output from lspci -v shows all of the hardware, except for the sound card.
