Speaker Configuration

AMMullan · 09-18-2003, 01:44 AM

Hey to all

I have a 5 speaker system (4x small and 1x bass) and am running RH9, I got the sound working with the arsd driver but it only pumps sound out of 2 small speakers and the bass.

Does anyone know where the config file is to change this? I looked under /etc and /etc/sysconfig but couldn't find anything to do with the amount of speakers

what soundcard? if it's a creative card, they have rather mature linux drivers. google for it...

na at the moment i'm just using onboard (C-Media AC97).... Worked under Windoze so I just thought i'd be able to get it under X.

Already installed the latest drivers

c-media is still pretty common for on-board stuff, there should be open source drivers out there. Do you have a specific audio chipset number that you could google for?

If your mobo is asus (maybe others too), they tend to supply linux drivers for on-board stuff - go try the modo makers search...
