Well... Im trying to get FedoraCore3 working with Audio... ive used Fedora for quite some time but never tried to get audio working before... I used Fedora since FC1 but surprisingly enough never used any audio... Now I want to listen to MP3s and watch movies and crap with MPlayer or XMMS or Helix Player but am not sure what exactly I need to do..... Im using onboard audio from a Intel 915 Grantsdale chipset & ICH-6.. Under GStreamer preferences ALSA is selected for default sink and default source but when clicking test it says failed to construct test pipeline for 'ALSA....' I think from FedoraFAQ I can get XMMS and the media player with mp3 codecs working but no audio is working hwo do I getALSA working properkly

I beleive I am hearing some feedback out of the speakers now, but still no audio...

FedoraCore3 is having troubles detecting the onboard audio, so I installed a Creative Labs Audigy 2, which will hopefully be detected im just reinstalling FC3 right now... On the ALSA sheet I see it supports the Audigy2 ZS and other Creative Labns cards so hopefully ALSA will workwith that.

Did you get the audio to work? i'd be interested to know how you did it

Worked fine from the get go with a Audigy 2 Plat

did you have to reinstall FC3 again?

yea, I did anyways I do it all the time... but im experiencing some FC3 Install problems right now

I had the same problem. Solution found:

Install a new kernel AND Alsa 1.0.8 and then you should type alsaconf to install the driver.

I was unable to correcty install a new alsa so I just switched to a distro that already comes with alsa 1.0.8 and a new kernel: Mandrake 10.2

It detected the audio driver upon installation and no more problems!!!

Hello Folks,,,I have problem in FC3,,,I have installed XP and FC3 ,,,,I get my AUDIO in XP ,,,but when it comes to FC3 ..I have a problem...I am geting sound but its choppy..anyways,,can anyone help me out here

Errrr ... we need a lot more information about your pc and your problem (for example: your sound card, your motherboard, etc) before we can help.

You probably need to install the latest alsa drivers.

HEY Thanks for replyin but sorry for the delay from my side,,,,my sound card is VIA-SHIPSET,,,,VIA and the kernel identifies its drivers as snd-via82xx...........and I have Athlon XP,processor
And there is one problem,,,,,,Video is also choppy ,,,it drops frames,,,,,I feel it is something to do with Bits persecond in AUDIO and FRAMES PER SECOND in VIDeo .....so If u have any IDEA about these ,,,,please help me out

FC3 works great with SB Audigy2 but I can't get the microphone to work.
