Hello---
Sound is a VERY spotty issue in 4.0/4.01--there have been many posts about it--you can look back thru the last couple of months for more info---I enclose the post that answered some of the problems for me---I still wait for a full cure---
My thanks for this answer, but can't remember who posted it----
Your /etc/modprobe.conf file should contain:
# ALSA portion alias char-major-116-* snd alias snd-card-0 snd-powermac
# OSS/Free portion alias char-major-14* soundcore alias sound-slot-0 snd-powermac
# OSS compatibility alias alias sound-service-*-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-*-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-*-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-*-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-*-12 snd-pcm-oss
install snd-card-0 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-card-0 && {/usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :; }
remove snd-card-0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || :; };/sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-card-0
install sound-slot-0 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install sound-slot-0 && {/bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L >/dev/null 2>&1 || :; }
remove sound-slot-0 { /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S >>/dev/null2>&1 || :; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove sound-slot-0
Note that the "install" and "remove" lines are each one long line, some Email programs might chop them---
Luck to you---

Howdy folks. Here's another one with no sound after a 3.0.1 to 4 upgrade. A few things:
1) I have no confirmation I am running 4.0.1 vs 4.0. When I boot it says 4.0 Orion, but running yum upgrade with multiple mirrors does not yield any further available upgrades. Any idea how I can easily tell if I am using 4.0 or 4.0.1?
2) My kernel was still 2.4.x. I manually upgraded it to 2.6.10-1.ydl.1 and that went well.
3) I have no sound, other than this loud "BEEP" every time I get a new email in Thunderbird
4) In Gnome, going to System Tools->Sound Card Detection works as I can hear the lovely guitar strum
5) Following the instructions at http://www.yellowdoglinux.com/support/solutions/ydl_4.0/audio.shtml tells me to open a shell, su - and this is what i get:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# alsamixer alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
So, uh, help?
