I had sound in 9.0 but not in 9.2
Hi all, I have unsuccessfully attempted to fix the sound card issues in my 9.2 install - no sound - though I had sound in 9.0. Since I upgrade every-other release, I still have until October to get it going. Is there such a thing as a sound card that is fool-proof for Linux? If so, I'd buy one. My vendor has recommended Turtle Beach. Anyone have any experience with this card running 9.2. My old sound card has worked with SuSE since 6.4. Funny it should fail with 9.2 . Thanks in advance, Tom

What card is it? I experienced the same problem with different cards on both x86 (intel-8x0) and x86_64 (via82xx) 9.2 and 9.3, luckily I had a copy of the module setup for /etc/modprobe.d/sound lying around for both machines. I never figured out why sound was not setup correctly on upgrade or new install. I think I got both or at least the via one by googling. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...

Turtle Beach's Santa Cruz has been working mostly perfect for me since 8.x days... once I figure out what the heck the latest release is up to as far as sound goes. It always works during install but doesn't always work after the first hard reboot. AlsaMixerGUI has been my friend and learning which control needs to be tweaked. KMix is now looking as good as AlsaMixerGUI for being able to tweak all your sound card capabilities plus KMix sits in the KDE systray with volume mouse-over/wheel effects. My opinion is that Linux sound is getting better but whether or not it will be foolproof is very system and sound card dependent. My onboard AC97 sound has been disabled since I went with the add-in card because I couldn't get it to work reliably after several SuSE version updates. The Santa Cruz just keeps cruising. Stan
