axel_2078 Posted September 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2004 (edited) I'm using Alsa, but I have the first Audigy...not an Audigy 2. I tried the surround settings under alsamixergui, but moving them up and down had no effect at all. This sucks. I was really hoping to turn Mandrake into my main music machine. :( Do you have a 4.1 setup as well?

aRTee Posted September 3, 2004 Report Share Posted September 3, 2004 I have a 4.0 setup; remember that there are more mixers than make you happy, and it may not be logical which ones to toy with. Just play with them all and see... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axel_2078 Posted September 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 Well, I've tried all the mixers I can find, but now matter how I adjust them, I can only get sound out of my front 2 speakers. A friend of mine told me to try recompiling my kernel because even though mandrake sees my soundcard, it may not understand what it's capable of. Is this true? Would recompiling the kernel be a good idea or a big mistake? I don't even know how to do this anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devries Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 If there is a new driver for sooundcard you could compile that (a new module=driver ususally gets in the kernel so when you build a new kernel yo get the new module.) Look at the alsa site for more information about your driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Thorlinn Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 Hi, While scanning the link given above by zero0w, I found this : One extra note on the rear speaker output, besides unmuting the `Wave Surround' slider, you will also need to **MUTE** the `Analog/Digital Output Jack' (the right-most slider in alsamixer) to enable rear speaker output. - Sprite 20020827 Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
