I just recently got an M-Audio 2496 card but am having problems with it:) Under Mandrake 10.1 the card seems to have been recognised OK and the driver ICE1712 [Envy24] has been installed however no applications seem to be able to find the card. Going through Mandrake's own troubleshooting (as root) produces the following: [root@office folderol]# /sbin/chkconfig --list sound sound 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off [root@office folderol]# /sbin/chkconfig --list alsa alsa 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off [root@office folderol]# aumix -q aumix: error opening mixer [root@office folderol]# /sbin/fuser -v /dev/dsp /dev/dsp: No such file or directory [root@office folderol]# I have also just got a copy of Suse 10 so tried that as well on a spare hard drive. This time the card is fully recognised, and sound is produced but is over-loud and distorted when running Amorok. Changing volume levels doesn't seem to help, and the graphic display on Amorok clearly shows clipping going on. Can anyone suggest anything for either of these problems. -- F
