OK, nothing listed on Creative's website.

 

When you did the alsaconf, did it ask if you wanted to probe the non-legacy stuff, to see what it came back with?

 

I noticed, you are running alsa-1.0.6 on your machine. We can update this if necessary quite simply.

 

Let me know if you are able to probe non-legacy.

Do you have an integrated sound card in your motherboard?

If you have and Mandriva has found it and tries to run both sound cards simultaneously, then that might be the reason you have no sound.

Check if the correct driver is applied too.

 

p.s. I have SB 5.1 , all works perfectly well

No It says NOTHING about Non Legacy cards.

Yes intergrated sound but it is not enamble in the bios or listed in Mandrake

 

In the Hardware listing under sound I only see sound blaster live

In your BIOS, is there an option that says Plug and Play OS. Is it controlled by the OS or by the BIOS? I know of probs, if you have it set to be controlled by the OS. If you let the BIOS control it, Linux works better!

 

What kernel version are you running? At the CLI, type uname -r and report back.

When you upgrade to 2.6.11-6 you will get the latest alsa too! This is the easiest way to do it, rather than download and compile alsa.

 

Once you have 2.6.11-6, you can reboot, and then run alsaconf to see if it picks up your card when running the latest version.
