You should now have a properly configured and working sound card. Then install the CCRMA sound applications." What's wrong with this picture is that I don't have a properly configured and working sound card after doing the Fedora Core 3 install. It didn't recognize my Audiophile 2496 as far as I can tell--it configured the onboard sound. Can you tell me more specifically what you did to get the Audiophile 2496 working?
