I have Redhat7.1, and a msi motherboard with athlon 1.4. Redhat setup told
me AC97 was unsupported, even though the salesman who sold me this box
told me redhat supported it. They didn't like my attitude ;-) so sold me a
SBliveValue for cost, free install, to quiet me down. 

I know that's no help to you, but maybe the MB sound is the unsupported
culprit.

I had a devil of a time with the AC97 sound on a i815 MB.  Finally got
a SBlive and used it  Maybe an older ISA card would work for you

sound onboard

2001-09-23 Thread Keith Antoine

I have a pinnacle card that I use for video capture. I had a hell of a time
getting it working till I had to take out the SBlive card, it just worked as 
soon as I took the sound card out. This was in windows of course (me), however
I reverted to the AC97 onbaord hardware sound which did what I wanted as I 
cannot tell the difference nowadays being 'old'. However in linux I no longer 
have sound but windows does. Caldera tells me that /dev/dsp does not exist
and is sending to /dev/null. Now of course dsp does exist and I know what it
is saying that it cannot find and sound hardware.

If it works in winders then it should work in linux, but I am at a loss as to 
what I need to do. A friend has it working in linux, why not me; cannot see 
whats different other than motherboards.

Ok, you great minds tell me! grin
