Hi
I am new to linux and I am having a problem getting my soundcard to work. I am running Fedora Core 5. My soundcard is a Creative Labs SoundBlaster X-Fi ExtremeMusic. My problem is that the card is being detected but when I try to play the test sound there is no actual sound coming out of my speakers(they are on and plugged and everything). Can someone please help me out with suggestions on how to get the card to work properly?
Thanks.
