Try this: http://gd.tuwien.ac.at/opsys/linux/L...nux-sound.html


Note* I did not have to recompile my kernel so check before you do!

Thanks! I will try it now! long read..huh

Well nevermind, Now I'm going to install OpenSuse, perhaps I will not have this problem

You will still have the problem with openSuse - at least I did.

Ow dam it! My sound card is Vinyl AC'97 Codec Combo Driver (WDM)

Perhaps it's not compatible?

[Jordan]

It is compatible - did you install Suse Yet?

I'm having some problems, I will start a new thread about this!

Now that I'm thinking, neither Windows detects my sound card!! I have to install the drivers on Windows, now on Linux do I need any special drivers for linux? or what?

Thanks!

Well I think, yes you do need some sort of drivers.. but I think that Linux should be able to detect sound on it's own..no? Althought when using FreeSpire I did have some sound issues, but in general it worked.
