since fedora security repo forced the update to 2944 and 2933 (update to alsa rc1 drives) i have had nothing but trouble and some very odd system issues also
i did force my laptop to use the kernel before this which worked fine. but when i updated to see if this issue was fixed in 2944 it removed some important modules for the system.
my laptop is the acer aspire 5100 using fedora 6.
it uses some form of realtek soundcard which in the latest updates has been tweaked to render it almost useless for my soundchip.
the device is now ONLY a OSS device in volume control, it boots up without saving volume settings. there is only one speaker working until the volume is set to zero then brought back up. hope someone knows how i can get this resolved detailed outputs follow:
