Description of problem: I have a Dell Optiplex GX1 with a built-in sound card. The sound card is not detected by the installer. I had Redhat 9.0 previously on this system and the sound card was detected perfectly and the module loaded was 'cs4232 ' .But actually the card is CS4236B as per the DELL specifications. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Kudzu should be able to detect soundcard 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: If I try to load snd-cs4232 module using modprobe I get the following error : root]# modprobe snd-cs4232 FATAL: Error inserting snd_cs4232 (/lib/modules/2.6.5-1.358/kernel/sound/isa/cs423x/snd-cs4232.ko): No such device Hence I tried installing the CS4236 module using modprobe, this module does get loaded but still I do not have any sound. Also the system-config-soundcard doesn't detect any soundcard.

I have this problem with my Optiplex GX1, running "Linux defiant. liftingmind.com 2.4.21-15.0.2.EL #1 Wed Jun 16 23:12:30 EDT 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux", which I just installed and updated today. However, Salil's message gave me a hint, and I found the following sequence let me activate my sound card - I'm playing a CD right now. :-) sudo insmod sound sudo insmod uart401 sudo insmod ad1848 sudo insmod cs4232 So here's a workaround, fwtw...Peter
