Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 47151
Laptop sound card not detected/configured during install
Last modified: 2014-03-16 22:21:31 EDT
Description of Problem: The sound card on my laptop (Compaq Armada M700) was not detected or configured during the install. Post-install, sndconfig finds the card as a "Model: ESS Technology|ESS1978 Maestro 2E", and configures it without a hitch. Expected Results: Supported cards should be configured during the install.
We run kudzu in the post-install of the install process, and kudzu should have confired it then. Any ideas Bill?
lspci output? Is kudzu *still* run in the post install? Did the -BOOT kernel match the installed kernel?

This defect considered MUST-FIX for Fairfax gold-release.
Does this still happen with beta2?
(or beta3, for that matter...)
Confirmed working on my laptop for Beta-3.
Closing as resolved, then.
