no audio, crappy video

[Michael Hennebry]

I haven't had audio since installing Fedora 13.
It's possible that the problem is that I didn't have the speakers
plugged in when doing the install.
How do I make them work?
For a while there was a speaker icon on my KDE taskbar.
I tried to use it, but no go.
It's gone now.  Don't know why.

I installed a flash plugin according
to the recommendations at fedorafaq.
Video is really jerky.  About a frame per second.
How do I make it work?
>From xorg.conf:
         Identifier  "Card0"
         Driver      "radeon"
         VendorName  "ATI Technologies Inc"
         BoardName   "Mobility Radeon HD 3600 Series"
         BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
When not playing flash, top tells me
that the load averages are less than 0.2 .


I go through stuff like this whenever I do an install.
By the time I get stuff working,
I'm too frazzled to remember what I did,
so it's the same song, same verse next time.
