There is an unresolved issue which prevents "snd-powermac" from automatically loading in FC5 on Apple Macintosh computers. This module must therefore be loaded manually to enable sound.
Quick-fix: Add the following line to "/etc/sysconfig/modules/udev-stw.modules": /sbin/modprobe snd-powermac
Could someone please update the "PPC-issues" wikipage and/or FC5 Release Notes to inform PPC-users of this problem? http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/ArchSpecific/PPC http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc5/
References: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=176761 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=178466 Problem is also reproduced on my mac mini computer.

Thanks for the tip, but I am still not getting any sound on my G5 single (PowerMac 9.1) tower.
Cheers,
Brian
