Hi,
In fc-3 the sound is muted for some soundcards.
With an everything install, you can use amixer to set things right.
I had to turn headphones on to make my sound work.
The symtom was that when one run play soundfile.wav, the command finnished
without problems , but there was no sound like when the speakers was'nt
plugged in.

I noticed than in my fc-3 I don't have a lot of modules in the
lib/modules/kernelversion directory. I get no sound from my sb-live either.
I will have to try the same thing, I want to play with gnopernicus, hope
that pretty well works out of the box.

yes. Download alsa-utils-1.0.8.tar.gz from
http://alsa-project.org/alsa-utils/ and build it as root on your system.
Once finished you'll have alsaconf on your system it's a script. Run it
and agree to having your /etc/modules.conf modified. Don't worry if you
get can't find rc.alsasound. Once done, aumix -v 100; aumix -p 100; aumix
-c 100; aumix -m 100; alsactl store; shutdown -r now. When you reboot try
using aplay or play to play a sound file you find in /usr/share/sounds.
If that works you're in business. I don't have a bugzilla account so
can't file a bug with the fedora project. The fedora project has for
x-window users system-configure-soundcard that is fine for x-window users
but doesn't do a thing for speakup and other screen reader users.

I have a sound blaster 64 which somehow didn't get recognized when linux

I see reference to a program called sndconfig, but that seems to be

I am a bit intimidated with building a kernel partly because I'm very
new to
linux, and partly because I am unsure of the relation to kernel sources
and
speakup and how it all ties together.
Is there anything I can do on my current system to get the sound blaster
working/ It worked uner redhat 7, but when I upgraded to fc3, I whiped
out
the whole system.
thanks for any help.
If I must rebuild a kernel, what is the rpm command I would issue to
gret
the sources I need?
