[HELP] Problems with sound
 
I have Slackware 10.0, and an integrated ac'97 sound card.
But I can't seem to get the sound working. I recently installed slackware and i just raised the volume. Nothing else. It didnt work. As I know slackware uses OSS by default. One time before when i had slackware i tried with alsa and it also didnt work. I ran alsaconf and then used alsamixer to raise the volumes and it didnt work.
Tought I remembr that I made it work once, so it must work somehow.

How could i get it working? I will go with OSS or Alsa.

Anyone?
I really dont wanna go back to windows. But offcourse I need the sound.

This may be really simple, but have you checked to make sure it's not muted? I remember some versions of Mandrake came with the mute button on when you first installed it.
Another thing to check is if you have the correct driver.

Happy Linuxing!

is that a no?
could someone at least tell me if sb live 5.1 is supported by alsa?

Tintilin,
I recently had a SB live value card and it worked fine, but I use a different distro. Post the output from the "dmesg" command here and let';s see what you have.

(Sorry if I can't respond immediately, I've got many things going on, but I'll try to keep in there with you.)
