I tried this with no luck. I went out and bought a Creative Soundblaster
Live-24 card.
I've installed the new card and the hardware browser
(Kmenu-->System Tools-->Hardware browser) sees the card
as "Creative Labs SB Audigy LS" and lists the driver as "snd-ca0106"
I've turned up all the controls in alsamixer and still no sound.
Please Help! This machine is for potential investors to evaluate Linux for a
startup company. I'm completely open to purchasing a new sound card if
someone can recommend a card that definitely works with FC3.
