Could you check "External Amplifier" switch or some other one? It can be a problem with mixer settings, you can use "alsamixer" utility....
there's no hardware switches, just Fn+F7/8/9 for sound+/-/mute. no dice :( the hardware works fine under win*XP :(

Just run alsamixer on console....

the last entry (External Amplifier) can only mutted MM or 00. :( Tru

I have booted in rescue mode from the FC4 CD1 (kernel 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4), and I can get a system "beep" from the text console, which I could not under the current kernel (2.6.15-1.1831_FC4) after a normal startup. I am not sure if it helps, but the RHEL4 update 2 kernel in rescue mode does not beep (2.6.9-22.EL), nor the current version 2.6.9-22.0.2.EL with both default alsa-lib and your 1.0.10-1.RHEL4 from http://people.redhat.com/stransky/alsa/ command line -> linux rescue acpi=ht
last news, I have tried the RHEL3 update 6 version: [root@msi root]# cat /proc/cmdline ro root=LABEL=/1 hdb=ide-scsi system beep ok (init 3) the card is detected and configured properly -> beep in konsole (init 5) kernel 2.4.21-37.0.1.EL /etc/modules.conf ... alias sound-slot-0 i810_audio post-install sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L >/dev/null 2>&1 || : pre-remove sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ... **but** when I tried to re-run redhat-config-soundcard, playing the sample test sound I get: sox: Unable to set audio speed to 22254 (set to 48000) and the konsole can no longer beep... /etc/sysconfig/hwconf: ... class: AUDIO bus: PCI detached: 0 driver: i810_audio desc: "Intel Corporation|82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller" vendorId: 8086 deviceId: 266e subVendorId: 1462 subDeviceId: 0351 pciType: 1 pcibus: 0 pcidev: 1e pcifn: 2 - ...
In RHEL3, OSS is used instead of ALSA. External Amplifier is only a switch between on/off. I'm quite sure that you only need to check some mixer setting and sound will work...
I haven't managed to find the right settings (neither linux version). In the best case, I have the system beep and as soon as I try to play anything I get the "Unable to set audio speed ..." error message and no sound. In the worst case, no system beep and no error messages. What worries me most is the snd_intel8x0 modules not being loaded as reported by lsmod(8). I tried the latest knoppix version (kernel 2.6.12) but the alsa-lib did not detect the sound card :( knoppix@4[~]$ cat /proc/cmdline ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=us apm=power-off vga=791 initrd=minirt.gz nomce quiet BOOT_IMAGE=knoppix BOOT_IMAGE=linux lang=fr acpi=off fb102x768 noddc lspci: ... 0000:00:1e.2 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 04) ... knoppix@4[~]$ aplay -l aplay: device_list:218: no soundcards found... knoppix@4[~]$ lsmod ... 0000:04:04.0 CardBus bridge: Ricoh Co Ltd RL5c476 II (rev ac) 0000:04:04.1 CardBus bridge: Ricoh Co Ltd RL5c476 II (rev ac) 0000:04:04.2 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Ricoh Co Ltd R5C552 IEEE 1394 Controller (rev 04) 0000:04:09.0 Network controller: Intel Corp.

I can't help you with knoppix....
sure :P I wasn't asking for help on knoppix, just to let you know that the sound problem was not specific to Fedora/Red Hat! Thx, Tru
okay, thanks :)
On my how-to page are new alsa-drivers for RHEL/FC, you can check it....
any news? have you chacked the latest drivers?
