And I think this could be considered not just double, but triple posting, please refrain from posting your question more than once, you have agreed to this in the rules.

Thanks

Cool

Ian,

Would you please tell me how you solved your problem?
I have AC'97 also and cannot produce any sound at all.

i just managed to fix my soundcard that used the ac97 codec as well. my problem happened to be that the soundcard wasn't getting an irq number.

check #dmesg to see if its saying anything. also maybe check #lsmod to see what modules you have and #lspci to see any information on your card


also i was under the impressoin that all newer kernels already had the ac97 mods in them?
