Hello

 

I have a Via AC'97 sound card on my Linux Mandrake 9.1 box and the sound is very weak (almost a whisper) even though I've tried 3 different sets of speakers including a big set with a wicked bass boost. I do not have this problem on Windows so I have to assume this has somthing to do with Linux sound drivers. Any suggestions, links, etc are appreciated.

 

Thank's

Just checking... you have checked your mixer settings, right?

 

No. Not sure where I would find my mixer settings but I did DL and install sndconfig. When I had it detect my sound card it told me that it was'nt yet supported so my roommate said he will put a different sound card in tommorow

 

Thanks for you reply:)
