sound config in fedora 11 issue

SSJGoku · 07-20-2009, 10:26 PM

ok i was just wondering where is the sound config file in fedora 11. i went to the info center and it said that my mixers and stuff were completely disabled. which i think is why my sound isnt working. anyways i would just like to find the file and make them enabled

thanks Sloan

no i cant hear any sound at all. i have my comp dual booted and in windows the sound works. i also think i have the right driver installed. but the info center said the sound was disabled in the config file

try doing this

Code:

su -
yum install pulseaudio alsa-plugins-pulseaudio pulseaudio-esound-compat pulseaudio-libs pulseaudio-libs-glib2 pulseaudio-module-zeroconf pulseaudio-libs-zeroconf xmms-pulse pulseaudio-module-gconf wine-pulseaudio xine-lib-pulseaudio pulseaudio-utils pulseaudio-module-bluetooth gst-mixer padevchooser paman paprefs pavucontrol pavumeter

This will install/include PulseAudio and all the extras we need to work with.

ok i did that. though the sound still isnt working
um i went to the KDE info center and went under sound and here is what it said.

Sound Driver: 3.81a-980706 (ALSA v1.0.18a emulation code
KernelLinux Chaotic.Nexus 2.6.29.5-5-191.fc11.i686.PAE #SMP Tue June 16 *time* i686
Config options: 0

installed drivers:
Type 10: ALSA emulation

Card config:
HDA ATI SB at 0xd2400000 irq 16

Audio devices: Not enabled in config

Synth devices:not enabled in config

Midi devices:not enabled in config

Timers:

also this is off topic but i was woundering what does the PAE mean in my linux version 2.6.29.5-5-191.fc11.i686.PAE

thanks!!!

Physical Address Extension (PAE) is a feature of some x86 and x86-64 processors that enable the use of more than 4 gigabytes of physical memory to be used in 32-bit systems, given appropriate operating system support.
