Yep.

Change to su and edit modprobe.conf so it reads

include /etc/modprobe.conf.dist

alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
install snd-intel8x0 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-intel8x0
&& /usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 ||:
remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; };

alias sound-slot-0 snd-intel8x0

(leaving in any other alias' of course!)

save and try it. You'll find it works. Or should!

(I had this problem when FC2 was in rawhide - the fix works nicely :-)

TTFN
