sndconfig is still shipping with FC2 test 1...it's just not installed by default. However, I'd guess that it will not work with the 2.6 kernel so well. Can you provide more information about the type of soundcard your laptop has? Hmmm, it must have been installed on my system because I chose the "Everything" install option. Frankly, sndconfig was never that good with my sound card either but after doing a bunch of research I discovered settings that would work. This is a several-year-old laptop and the built-in peripherals are not PCI or PNP or anything that nice. It's a NeoMagic chipset sound card that is OPL3 compatible. If I set the I/O Address, DMA channels, IRQs, etc. to match the BIOS settings then I could get it to work. I can *get* more info than this if you need it but I'll have to re- install Red Hat 9 to do so. Let me know if it would help. Ahhh, I got sndconfig to give me the list of cards on another system. Oddly enough, the NeoMagic chipset listed does not work with my sound card. I have to use the "OPL3-SA1" setting. That and match the Base I/O Address, DMA and IRQ settings in the BIOS. The switch to the 2.6 kernel also means that we're switching over to ALSA from the oss sound system. To be honest, I don't even know if ALSA will even work with your soundcard. I haven't been able to get the soundcards working on any of my FC2 test 1 installs yet. :( As root, run this: kudzu --probe --class=AUDIO --bus=UNSPEC What does the output of that say? kudzu will not probe non-isapnp/non-pci cards at all. isapnp at the moment isn't being seen because the drivers aren't exporting any ISAPnP ids. <heh> You're gonna love this... nothing. It just gave me another prompt. -> Bill Nottingham: My above comment was directed to the kudzu question. So, are the drivers being modified to export ISAPnP IDs? Will the legacy cards eventually find support in the 2.6 kernel? Michael: That's more of a kernel question. Perhaps you should change the component of this bug to the kernel. Okay, if you think that would be best. I'm just trying to let you folks know that Sound is broken on these older cards. Request for status: Has any progress been made towards getting the Kernel to export ISAPnP IDs? Actually, this should be better in current development kudzu packages. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0) Description of problem: Application is unable to detect and configure the soundcard in my Gateway Solo 2500 Laptop. Since sndconfig is no longer being supported I no longer have any way to configure the sound card on my system. Please either replace sndconfig to the distribution or add the ability to configure legacy sound cards to the system-config- soundcard application. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): system-config-soundcard-1.2.2-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to configure sound on a Gateway Solo 2500 laptop or other system with a "legacy" soundcard. 2. 3. Additional info:
