Unable load sound card driver
Last modified: 2015-01-04 17:16:37 EST
Description of problem: Unable to load sound card driver Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora Core 2.6.10-1.741_FC3 Fedora Core 2.6.10-1.760_FC3 How reproducible: I installed Fedora Core3 2.6.9-1.667 on my Toshiba A45-S150 laptop which already had windows XP sp2 installed. After installing Fedora Core3 2.6.9-1.667, My sound card was working fine and I was able to listen music. Now I updated my kernel to 2.6.10-1.741_FC3, now my sound driver is not loaded and I am not able to listen music. Although when I go to Application->System Settings->Sound Card Detection A window pops up saying the following: The following audio device was detected. Vendor: Intel Model: Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller Module: snd-intel8x0 Now I updated my kernel to 2.6.10-1.760_FC3, still the problem persists.
