[mike@scrappy ~]$ more /proc/asound/cards 0 [CA0106 ]: CA0106 - CA0106 Audigy SE [SB0570] at 0xe300 irq 22 1 [SI7012 ]: ICH - SiS SI7012 SiS SI7012 with ALC655 at irq 23 > PulseAudio is not going to make your sound magically work if your > sound card is not recognized at all by the Linux kernel. Thanks for helping out so far. And as I stated originally (or I left it out), if I run the "Soundcard Detection" program, it finds the card as well as on board sound (SiS MB), and I can hear the sample sound it plays (speakers are pluggined into the Audigy SE card not the onboard). So I don't get why it's not being picked up otherwise. -- Mike Chambers Madisonville, KY "The best lil town on Earth!" -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
