For good or bad, I had to do all this to get the card working OK in 7.1 . But, in 7.0, I had to download and install the lastest driver to get any workable sound, while your's worked out of the box. Maybe you just need the more current driver. Here goes:
1. Make sure you have latest
kernel from Mandrake
2. recompile emu10k1 driver
under latest kernel (driver from www.opensource.creativelabs.com)
3. download latest alsa
library from Mandrake update - does not get updated
automatically with the Update
function
3. download and install
latest detect library, HardDrake and sounddrake
from the HardDrake site
- latest sounddrake has dependancies of detect,
alsa and HardDrake, so sounddrake
is the last to be installed - I used the
RPMs.
4. Now run sounddrake again
- you may have to find it in the /sbin
directory and run it directly
- there was (is ?) a small configuration bug
in HardDrake that it does
not look in the correct place for the sounddrake
file. There is a HardDrake
.rc file that needs to be updated manually,
until a fix comes out for
that.
After all this the sound worked. I tried so many things - I hope I don't have to install again.
cheers,
philomena
