I have a new motherboard with built-in audio (DFI PS83-BL with C-Media 9739A).
Mandrake recognizes it as "Intel Corp.|82801EB AC'97 Audio" and assigns the
snd-intel8x0 driver to handle it.
This cause the sound canot be played. Can anybody help me?

Is it a nforce chipset based mother board ? I've got the same problem with a chainteck one. I've had to deactivate alsa service at boot and then use old oss i810 driver...it works but only in mono, and the sound is quite noisy.
Yesterday I've found : http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/n....13.athlon.rpm

Try it :-).
