Should be fixed with Fedora Core 2 since we are switching to ALSA for all sound modules. I am having this same problem with fc2 running on a Dell Dimension
with the Intell i810 sound card. The really odd thing is that I have
fc1 installed in another partition. It has always found the sound
card and loaded a driver which works. I did check another bug report
where someone was embarassed to admit that the problem was having
Volume turned down. So I've tried to check Volume, but it says "No
soundcard detected" hence, no volume to set.
system-config-soundcard finds the card and says:
Vendor: Intel
Model: 82801BA/BAM AC'97 Audio
Module: snd-intel8x0
When I click to play the test sound, nothing comes out.
I get these errors:
amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such device
amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such device
sox: Can't open output file '/dev/dsp': No such device
-9
(There is a /dev/dsp directory)
I also tried
alsactrl restore
but nothing changes.
What other files hold clues? /etc/modprobe.conf is just one line:
alias eth0 e100

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031114 Description of problem: I have an Intel D865PERL Motherboard, and it comes with an Intel i810 chipset for the sound. When firstboot ran, it detected the sound and placed the driver/module 'i810_audio' into the kernel. However, this file does not exist ANYWHERE in my computer, nor off the installation ISOs. redhat-config-sound also detects this as i810_audio, and warns me that said driver could not be loaded and this soundcard may not be compatible with RedHat Linux. Also, on my previous install of RedHat 9, this was a problem, however all I needed to do was build the ALSA drivers for intel8x0, and simply modprobe them into the kernel, and it worked. I've tried several times to do this with Fedora Core, a few times with some small success, but everytime I reboot, it goes back and tells me that it's still trying to load i810_audio again. I've tried editing modules.conf to load the correct module in, but for some reason redhat-config-soundcard is persistent (and successful) in changing everything back to i810_audio. If I don't reboot the computer, and I painstakingly modprobe the correct drivers in each time the computer starts, it works fine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot computer 2. Run redhat-config-sound 3. Realize that it's still using i810_audio 4. modprobe in the correct drivers 5. Pray that I don't need to reboot Actual Results: I can temporarily fix the problem, and if I reboot I need to repeat those steps. I am looking for a permanent fix. Expected Results: Should accept and use the changes in the driver change, as in RH9. Additional info:
