Hey, Yes, on my system it is in alsa-utils... /usr/sbin/alsaconf. If you built alsa-utils from scratch, try the distro's package, and if it's the distro's package, please try building from source. Best, Bjorn.
Hi Bjorn, Thank you. I have the distro rpm for alsa-utils installed, alsa-utils-1.0.16-3.fc9.i386.rpm. I am at the stage where the card is recognised, alsamixer now opens and all seems to be working but still no sound comes out. I'm more interested in getting the modem to work than sound. Now the card is recognised is it possible to try and get the modem working? Ta, GN UPDATE:I now have sound working somewhat. Reasonably good from the headphones, pretty weak from the speakers.
I ran scanModem again and have attached ModemData.txt.gz for your perusal. Hopefully I can now get the modem working.
GN.

What package is it in? I thought it was in alsa-utils.

It can't hurt to try though, if you think it may help. Perhaps some configuration is needed- try 'sudo alsaconf' and use it to configure your card. What is the output of 'lsmod | grep snd'? Thanks, Bjorn.Hello Bjorn, I tried setting 'options snd-hda-intel model=medion' in /etc/modprobe.conf and now I am a long way further ahead. I still cannot get any sound out of the thing but at least the card is now recognised and the panel vol control sees it and can be adjusted. Maybe model= needs to be set for something else. alsamixer and amixer still do not work. Outputs below.
