Description Eric Yuan Zhao 2003-02-05 17:32:52 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021209
Phoenix/0.5

Description of problem:
After installing and booting into the newly updated kernel-2.4.18-24.8.0, no
sound can be produced through either ESD or OSS.  I have an on-board sound card
82801AA AC'97.  I haven't had any problem with it in any other version/kernel of
Red Hat Linux including Phoebie.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot into kernel-2.4.18-24.8.0
2. Open any program that produces sound via ESD or OSS
    

Actual Results:  No sound can be heard or the app gives error message about the
output  device.


Expected Results:  Sound should be produced.

Additional info:

I haven't tried arts.

I am having the same problem on RH 8 as well. Selecting a previous kernel on 
the GRUB bootup screen will bring sound back.
Comment 2 Bugzilla owner 2004-09-30 15:40:30 UTC 
Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of
the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem
persists.

The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, 
and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in
the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/
