Maybe I'm missing a driver update for Nvidia ION ? but I dont really want to go breaking things by downloading the wrong s/w. $ yum list installed | grep -i nvidia kmod-nvidia.i686 177.82-1.fc10.7 installed kmod-nvidia-2.6.27.9-159.fc10.i686.i686 177.82-1.fc10.7 installed xorg-x11-drv-nvidia.i386 177.82-1.fc10 installed xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i386 177.82-1.fc10 installed $ "Nvidia audio not working over HDMI" seems to be quite a common theme but I've yet to find any definitive solutions. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks Robert ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
