I've often had unanswered requests for help, probably because nobody knows the answer. It's always good to have a good subject line (not always easy, depending on what you want to find out), and try to ask one question at a time, rather than a whole string of problems posted under a subject line of "Various audio problems" for example. Remember that most of the folks on these lists are just users like you, and have knowledge about the apps "they" use. I know a fair bit about the soundcards that are on my 2 machines, and try to offer help where I can. I try to give help to folks having problems with hda intel based soundcards, but that's mainly down to pointing them to the right place to look for help, as I don't have an hda intel card, and there are so many variations of it on different mobo's it's almost impossible to give a definitive answer. Now I possibly can't help, but what might be your first problem? Post with a good subject line, and just one question at a time. I presume your soundcard is working ok, so that's a good start. All the best. Nigel. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
