Auto identifying the sound card

26 May 2006

      Hi, 

I'm putting together an autoyast setup for sled10 (rc2 right now).
I'm having problems getting the sound to be autoidentified. 

The section of my autoyast file is 

  <sound>
      <autoinstall config:type="boolean">true</autoinstall>
      <configure_detected config:type="boolean">true</configure_detected>  
    <volume_settings config:type="list">
      <volume_entry>
        <Front config:type="integer">75</Front>
        <Headphone config:type="integer">75</Headphone>
        <Master config:type="integer">75</Master>
      </volume_entry>
    </volume_settings>
  </sound>

but if I go into yast after the install, the sound is still showing up as 
undetected. 

After Looking at Frank van Tol's posting of 27/1/2006 I've started alsasound 
manually but still no joy. 

This is on a dell D610 machine. 

Does anyone have any clues ?
