FC2: Soundcard no longer detected

ummmmm · 07-06-2004, 10:50 AM

My soundcard was detected at some point, but it started giving errors on reboot after a while, which may have coincided with kernal upgrades (I'm at 2.6.6-1.435.2.3 now). I finally allowed it to "remove the configuration" thinking that it would re-detect the device on next boot. I was wrong. This is an old IBM PC with sound on the motherboard. If I'm looking at the right chip, it's a Crystal CS4235.

Any ideas?

ummmm; um um, how about disabling onboard sound & installing sound card. possible?

Possible, but not worthwhile. I don't really need sound on this machine, it would just be nice to have - especially since it's already there and since it used to work.

ummmm; how about trying IBM,s archieves on motherboards and might find
a solution & workaround.
