Really? I've had much better luck getting sound working in Fedora than in other distros...

i just installed fc3 on new vaio vgn-a200 (wiped clean, no dual-boot) ... got the wireless working (with the 2200 add-in stuff) and the controller giving ac & battery information (again following various directions gleaned from using search engine). however, i've abeen unsuccesful getting linux sound support working on this machine (sound is active since the bios does a little tune on power-up).

Well, give some symptoms and maybe someone can sort it out. When you say that it doesn't work, do you get an error? Does sound simply not come out?

Is your alsamixer muted? That is a common one. Does the user in question have permission to write to the sound device?
