i install fedora core 4 but it fail to detect my sound card. my sound card is sigmatel. how can i solve this problem? can i install other sound driver? thx

As root or superuser did you run the command alsaconf to detect your soundcard?

nop. when i try it, it say command not found. where shall i execute this command? sorry i'm kidda new at everything. thx

Fedora has no alsaconf

wsc Show full info about your soundcard's chipset

(You could find it in /sbin/lspci)

00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH 4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 01)


this is what i found from lspci ^^

in Windows, the audio is : SigmaTel C-Major Audio
driver provider : SigmaTel
version : 6.14.1.3906

ps: i use laptop

=o does fedora use alsa or is it just 'one of those redhat things'? Thinking back way back to the last time I used it, there's always at least been a redhat-specific GUI tool for soundcard autodetection, perhaps you will find it in your DE's menu under 'Configuration' or 'Settings' or another appropriately named submenu (assuming you chose to install the administration package group, iirc). To the best of my recollection, fedora still uses kudzu, have you tried running it (as root) from the cli? If it doesn't detect anything, I(or someone quicker)'ll look up the module name itself.
