Hi Clemens,
 
 
After installing FC-5 distribtion and booting up in dual boot mode gracefully. It is great. however,
something has made me feel so outrageous similarly to the fate of installing Mandrake 2006 -- No sound!
I found either kernel unable to load sound modules to support its sound.
The soundchip(on board) has been detected as Rockwell Semiconductor PCI Audio Controller and it requires
snd-riptide driver. However,  I have checked the kernel now(FC-5) does not have module to support this.
 
I have checked:
/lib/modules/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5/kernel/sound/pci
 
has NO snd-riptide driver but only other drivers.
 
As I am a novice Linux user, I heard about building a new kernel to support it or configure a loadable modules. Either
way has no way to start with. Of course simple approach is always best, I don't mind to try a harder way but need some advice to start with.
Furthermore,  while trying some commands like:
make config, make menuconfig ... 
It returned with missing parameters... so forth.
FC-5 command mode not accept though I have installed the Development Tool during package installation.
I really need your advice to get me sound back as
normal as running in Window XP Pro in the same system.
Thanks in advance.
