2 in 1 : Realtek ALC850 and RADEON 9700 PRO


Hi,

I got linux up and running and I'm loving it!

Distr: RH9.0 - kernel 2.4.20-8

I have two problems(for the moment <grin>) left to settle though:

1. I have an on-board soundcard, Realtek ALC850, on a Gigabyte 8IPE1000, and my distro(RH9) cant detect it. What can i do about it?

2. I have a Radeon 9700 Pro, for which I installed the proper drivers(3.7.6 for XFree86 4.3.X). It runs quite well but I am experiencing system locks randomly, regardless of the program I am running. Anyone fixed this?

Thanks for any insight! Always fun to learn a bit.

Alex

The Realtek ALC850 chipset was only initially supported in ALSA 1.0.5. You'll need to upgrade to at least that version to get a working sound card.
