After I finished installing SuSE 8, the first thing I want to do is check my soundcard. As I had worried about, it doesn't work properly. When I listen mp3 or other sound files, there is noise, skip and pause .But now, it works very good.
my soundcard is a built-in 82801CA/CAM AC97' Audio .When I setup in YaST, it says there is an error occured during the installation of 82801CA/CAM AC97' Audio. But it does work very well. Before I listen a song, I must go internet-surfing ,open a link of radio playlist. then I can appreciate any songs as I like such as .rm , .mp3 ...
can someone tell me why and how to do?

I guess there's a problem with your sound card initialization. Try to look into /var/log/messages. There can be kernel messages when loading the module. If you can find them, post them.

Yes , in the system consol, it prompt a lot of error message:
cannot load sound-xxxx module... but if there were no these, oh, I even cannot hear anything!!! I don't know how to upload a image of my sreen snapshot, or I will show you .

I must say thank you very very much, you are so kind!
If you were in China, I will drink wine with you and make Chinese dish by myself!
