Support for RealTek ALC650 (ac97) Sound in FC 1?

Wed Nov 19 03:55:57 UTC 2003

Redhat 9 was the first version of Redhat which supported the RealTek 
ALC650 sound chip. It supported it with the via82cxxx driver.

Unfortunately sound is no longer working after upgrading to Fedora Core 
1. I've looked around lots of places including the module source and the 
kernel release notes for hints but have come up with absolutely no 
explanation of why it's no longer working. Anyone have experience with 
getting an ALC650 working under Fedora?

I am using an EPoX 8K3A+ mobo.
