Hi Jerry & All,
ok, I am not a wee bit jealous... I am very ;-)
Now, have you tired turning off the onboard sound on the motherboard, dip switch or BIOS?
My first try was with the BIOS setting. It was not 100% so I'll check the motherboard docs and see if they have a switch. If not, I may just pull the SB and see how the onboard sound is, since ALSA seems to detect it ok. JLK
Good luck with your wee beastie!

I put the beast togehter and gave YaST2 the first (and only, so far) shot at installing SuSE 7.1 It couldn't detect the z52 printer, but I have the dirver rpm, so I'll install it later. It detected the soundblaster, which was a peripheral card, BUT also the onboard sound chip system, so sound didn't work. I deleted the first sound driver and the test button gave the startup music (That 18 watt woofer really gives a thump!), but when I put a music CD in the drive no sound would come out. I checked that the audio wire from the CD to the sound blaster was connected. And, I haven't got the Zip250 running yet. Also, I have yet to connect the NIC to my wifes machine, which is connected to the ADSL and will be my only way out to the internet.
The fun begins! :) JLK
