This will tell you the maker and model of your HDA-Intel chip (and a lot of other potentially useful information for troubleshooting). You could post it here so people can see what your system configuration is as well. http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh Once you've done that, look in the alsa-kernel/Documentation section of the drivers you compiled. Do a grep -i of the files there for mention of your chip name, or pieces of your chip name. That might give you some more options to try, like different model numbers to use with the modprobe. It truth, HDA-Intel is a problematic standard because of its extreme configurability. There seem to be no end of problems with those chips on linux systems. I've seen suggestions that the design was a deliberate attack on open source sound and drivers, made tongue in cheek but with some justification. An alternative to consider if you can't get it working is that you might just pick up a cheap standard USB card or PCI card. All that said, if you do get it working, HDA-Intel can work very well. And fixes go into alsa every day, so what doesn't work today might next week. This especially applies if your chip is very new as there won't be a driver for it until a developer figures out the pin configuration. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
