Hi everyone, I have a Dell OEM SB Live!, a slightly custom sb live! that Dell has been shipping since last October. I did some thorough checks before trying to install the alsa driver and found that the alsa driver has been updated to recognise this card (it is basically an sb live! with a different pci-id).
So, after following the install instructions on the alsa site for an sblive, everything seems to be installed and configured properly except I can't hear anything! No matter what I try, I cannot get the card to emit one single tone. I have installed the alsa-driver, alsa-lib and alsa-utils packages, modprobed all the new kernel modules, run the 'alsaconf' script in the utils directory, which updated my modules.conf and set the mixer levels to some standard levels, and still no joy. I've loaded several mixer programs including alsamixer to make sure things were as they should be, etc. Can't seem to figure it out. KDE sees the sound card. I was recieving errors about anything to do with sound at all before I installed the alsa driver, and now everything is happy, but I ain't hearing anything! Everything is telling me it sees an sb live but nothings working. My system is: RedHat 8 / Alsa 0.9.0rc8a / SB Live! (Dell OEM) I would really appreciate any help on this.
