Hi all,
First of all, a big thank you to those who responded
to my post (SB Audigy and modem, sent yesterday).
I have managed to get the SB Audigy working (mostly).
I brought up the Volume Control window by right
clicking on the speaker volume icon on the
bottom-right, and then selecting the "Volume control"
option on the pop-up menu. Once this window was up, I
just unchecked all "Locked", raised the volume for
every last dial I could, and it worked (too well, I
actually had to reduce the volume in some cases,
slightly for PCM was enough).
I can now get sound for WAV, etc (I used xmms to
test).
The only thing that doesn't work is CD playing. I
still can't get CD output from the speakers (even
though I have put both CD and Audigy CD dials to full
volume), although I can get CD output through
headphones and change volume through headphone volume
control on my CD-RW and DVD-ROM drives (Which I
believe was suggested).
When I had RH Linux 9 installed, I was able to get CD
music output to the speakers, no problems in getting
sound. (I think I was using OSS with RH 9 which had
no ALSA, I could reinstall OSS on FC 2 but I won't).
I know that all cables are correctly attached on my
machine.
But this is tolerable, at least I get sound (mostly).
Can just use headphones if I need to listen to CD
music.
This means that I can now concentrate on getting my
ADSL USB modem working in Linux. As I am using the
kernel-2.6.7.x kernel, all I need is to get PPPoA
working in Linux.
Thanks,
Rahul
