Just tried that and it comes back with the error: No supported PNP or PCI card found. What now? Also, I installed the asla-docs rpm, but where are they located on the system? I poked around in a few places, but couldn't find them. On Wed, 2 February 2005 8:53 pm, you wrote:

Thanks for the tip. I downloaded all the rpms available at packman.links2linux.com and ran: rpm -Uvh alsa-1.0.8-0.pm.0.x86_64.rpm
It did a few uninteresting things and then reported: /usr/sbin/alsactl: save_state:1194: No soundcards found... ...skipped
Now, if I look at the SuSE hardware tool, it can see the sound card and recognizes it as a "Creative Multimedia audio controller". Clearly the OS, at some level can see the sound card, but apparently Alsa can't. Does this indicate that I need to rebuild the kernel module? If so, are there any pointers I should follow or bumps I should watch out for? What else can I do to try to get this beast working? It is becoming a rather frustrating problem.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Try running as root alsaconf. It is a very good way to install a sound card.
