4.1 Surround w/ Santa Cruz
Background:
While I am an experienced Windows user, I am not a programmer and am completely new to Linux. My main holdup to migrating to (and learning how to use) Linux is this problem.
Relevant Hardware Info:
Dell Dimension 8100 - Pentium 4 1.8GHz, 512MB RDRAM
Turtle Beach Santa Cruz DSP Sound Card (PCI)
Altec Lansing 4.1 surround sound speakers (two front, two satellites, subwoofer)
The Problem:
On RedHat 8, I get no sound whatsoever (sound card not recognised).
On Suse 9 LE, the card is recognised, but only the front two speakers work.
What I Need:
VERY DUMBED-DOWN directions to get all 4.1 speakers functioning properly. I'd prefer Suse 9 (does a great job detecting my hardware), but I'm not tied to it.
