Well i have a very frustrating one problem, but i think with a little of patient and determination it will be ok.
You have to know that am a totally noob about shell ,unix and other stuff ( i have one month with fedora core 2 experience) .
So, i bought a Audigy Ls soundcard some days ago, and now i am working very hard to have her working under fedora core 2!
So, i am under fedora core 2, kernel update to 2.6.8-1.521 kernel version, first i have installed alsa-driver alsa-libs alsa-utils 1.0.6a only follow this steps
ht*p://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=Quick+Install
After reeboting i have my sound card installed but gnome volume icon tray don't work and in my audio control preferences i have two tabs "SigmaTel STAC9721/23[OSSMIXER]" and "AUDIGYLS[ALSAMIXER]".
First problem:
Here ht*p://*ww.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=22203&page=1&pp=15
is specified that i must have a tab called "Digital1" or something similar so i made something wrong compiling alsa driver.
I try also compiling alsa-cvs follow ht*p://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=AlsaCVS but nothing seems to change!I have compiled alsa1.0.6a on the alsa 1.0.3 that is natively whit fc2, and then i have compiled alsacvs on alsa1.0.6a!There are problems doing this?!I have to disinstall something in order to update?!
Maybe the problem is that I have NOT compiled the kernel-alsa-module folder that comes with the cvs , shall i have to do this?(Sorry guys i am a nOOb).
Second problem:
I hear very frequently a distortion that is really weird, like the music is skipping, and the playrate is a bit to fast. ( i remember the same thing on windows, solved by disabling the digital audio output).
I think is the same on linux but i don't have any voices on my wrong mixer that permitt to me do something.
Third problem:
I have a Philips 5.1 surround speakers rightly connected to my Audigy Ls but i don't have they working , doing the surround work, oly two front speakers work!
What i have to do in order to have my soundcard working regularly under Fedora Core 2 ??
Could someonehelp me with this 3 frustrating problems!?
thank you very much in advance
cheers
