I had the same issue. I installed all the latest updates with yum and then a redetection of the soundcard did help. Maybe works for you also.
I really appreciate you all,but what are you telling me to update?
ls it the Fedora Core 5 or what?
If it is,what command do i use from the terminal,because FC5 does not update
normally,but from the terminal.
Thank you very much for all this,Love you all.
Let me paint this picture clearly.I have a Dell product (INSPIRON| B130)
Which may not be in circulaion while FC5 was publish,My soundcars for windows work perfectly, but for my linux thats where i have problem.
I guess i need an update but how?
Thank you.
I had an issue on my Dell Latitude. In the BIOS there's a setting for sound giving you the options for 'half-duplex', 'full-duplex' and 'disable'. After wrestling with my sound for days, I finally got my sound recognized and no little red x over the speaker icon. I still couldn't get it to work. It wasn't until I changed it in the BIOS to 'full-duplex' that I actually was able to use it.
