Hi Shlomi, I have a few ideas:
The simplest solution, IMHO, is to install sndconfig (a util on the first CD). I was always able to fix sound card problems with that utility. I have noticed that GNU/Linux distros can't keep up with Intel's ICH arch. Try researching the Intel site. After a bit of Google, I found out it is probably a Kernel issue. Try upgrading/updating your Kernel. Good Luck, Amichai. On Friday 19 September 2003 08:21, Shlomi Fish wrote: > Hi all! > > I recently had to upgrade my computer.
