Guest vtbaz Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 I can't get any sounds to work. Has anybody else had this problem? What do I need to do to get my sound card to work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixthusdan Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 I have been using a soundblaster live card for several years, and it works just fine in Mandrake. Would you describe more about your hardware? On board sound? Other devices in your system? And you have checked the volume contol? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chin808 Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 By your postcount it looks like you are new to this... I have the SBLive as well and it took a little tinkering with the volume control in kde before I got things working :) I use gnome now so I cant tell you exactly which levels I was using to get sound, jus unmute all of them, turn each fader down and go one by one with xmms playin something in the background and you will most lieky find the fader you need to get sound PEAS -C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobaloo Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 (edited) For me I had to change the sound module to "emu101k", not the "snd-emu101K", and the system for some reason installed the "audigy" driver by default on installation. Go to the Mandrake Control Center, Hardware section, then click on the sound card and choose "configure". Select the "emu101k" driver and reboot. As noted above, you may also have to open an audio mixer program and turn the volumes up. Edited March 11, 2004 by bobaloo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodwarrior Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 I also have the SoundBlaster Live and using MD 10, but cannot get sound other than a horn noise, which disappears when I change from the default driver, snd-EMU101K. But any other driver doesn't give me sound at all. Any help ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padma Posted March 23, 2004 Report Share Posted March 23, 2004 Try turning OFF the microphone in aumix. That cleared up the *feedback* signal I was hearing. I have no mic attached, but was getting this "horn noise" until I did that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
