i have just installed redhat linux 8.0, and my soundcard doesn't have been installed corectly.I have a yamaha opl3 sax soundcard.The soundcard is shown in the hardware browser twice: in soundcard and in unknown devices.What should I do to run it properly?
Please give me a solution.
TahnkYou very much.
Red hat 8 is very old. Sound support has improved a lot in the last five years. You could compile a 2.6.10 kernel and install the latest Alsa-libs and Alsa-utils but it would probably be easier to install a more recent distro. Have you tried Fedora Core 3?
