Sound

I reinstalled Mandrake and I can't remember how to get my soundcard up and running. I have a Soundblaster 16 sound card and i have tried to use the command sndconfig but that doesn't seem to be doing the trick.

The command is "draksound". You must run as root.

try the command
draksound
(as root).

When I login, the following error shows up.

I then run draksound and the following is displayed.

You can see in the background that I have run sndconfig but it says command not found. The soundcard is a Soundblaster 16. Strangest thing is that I must have used sndconfig before I reinstalled Mandrake and then it worked.

Sorted. It would seem when I re-installed it didn't install some packages.
