sound problems on fedora core 2
 

[I][SIZE=3][FONT=times new roman][COLOR=blue]
iam new to linux
i have installed fedora core 2.
i was not able to hear any sound,but the soundcard detection was proper.
so i used aumix and maxed the master and all other volumes.then the sound came back.
but when i reboot the sound volume again goes to minimum and when i play xmms iam not able to hear any sound.

so anyone help me.iam new to linux.
thanks:Pengy:

Hi,

If the sound works as root the following may help.

Quote:

Sound works for user 'root' but not for others This is to do with the fact that the audio device (/dev/dsp) is group owned by 'audio', but none of the users are part of that group. To correct this, run: adduser <username> audio Ensuring that if the users you are adding; are logged in at the time you ran the above command, that they logout and log back in again for it to work.
