You have quite old ALSA drivers, please update your kernel and/or check the latest ones, how-to is here: http://people.redhat.com/stransky/alsa/
Created attachment 133841 [details] Log file after installation of new alsa drivers as instructed.
Comment on attachment 133841 [details] Log file after installation of new alsa drivers as instructed. http://people.redhat.com/stransky/alsa/ I followed the instructions on the above link. aplay and alsamixer did not help. I then got the kernel-devel package 2.6.15 as stated and installed them. However alsa-driver-1.0.12rc2.tar.bz2 failed in the 'make' stage. I then got alsa-lib-1.0.12-1.rc2.src.rpm, alsa-utils-1.0.12-1.rc2.src.rpm, and installed them as instructed and rebooted the machine. I did alsaunmute and alsamixer after that. However, there is still no sound and the problem still persists. Interestingly there is no bar for my 'speakers'. All there is a bar for my 'headphone'.
You have quite old kernel. Update your kernel to the latest for FC5 (it's 2.6.17) and then check the alsa-driver-1.0.12rc2.tar.bz2 again.
hi, but the point is when i downloaded the alsa driver tarballs the info said tht this is compatible for kernels 2.6.176 or earlier... and the interesting n puzzling thing with alsamixer on my currently installed system is tht on the xserver volume bar the bar only shows headphone and pcm and running alsamixer frm terminal also doesnt show the master, all it shows is headphone pcm n microphones...whr has the master disappeared??
All sliders in alsa mixer depend on alsa-driver. Is there any problem?
the main problem is thr is no sound and the latest alsa-drivers u told me to install arent working and as i posted in my earlier comments the latest driver the same problem persisits pls look into it at the earliest(In reply to comment #8) > All sliders in alsa mixer depend on alsa-driver.

Okay, could you please check: "$aplay -D plughw:0,0 /usr/share/sounds/phone.wav" Are there any error messages?
(In reply to comment #11) > Okay, could you please check: > > "$aplay -D plughw:0,0 /usr/share/sounds/phone.wav" > > Are there any error messages? to ur question i tried it out and amazingly it doesnt show any error msgs and it plays the stereo at 4100Hz but thrs no sound... its getting kind of exasperating so pls help out..............
the sound problem still persists but interestingly i tried ubuntu 6.06 live cd and the sound worked on the live cd.... my experience with fedora has been a mixture of frustration n joy... well i had customised a lot of features on my laptop like cronjob,wget,mutt,bash,yum and so on... and they were woking beautifully but the sound was a problem.... i will now install ubuntu 6.06 on my laptop... but if u want any info frm my ubuntu machine tht might help you to sort out this problem and write appt device driver i will obviously like to help you out..... do tell me if u want info .........
Could you attach (from ubuntu) files: /proc/asound/version /etc/asound.conf all files from /etc/alsa and output of "#lsmod" and "amixer"? (they both are the command line utilities)
