To get you started, have you tried configuring it yet with yast?

YaST -> Hardware -> Sound

Do you see your sound card listed?

You could also try opening a terminal window (KDE konsole) and try running the command

alsaconf (as root user)

This should try to detect and configure your card for you.


If you are unsuccessful, then run this command

/sbin/lspci -v

and post the results.

BTW: Similar thread here.

[deano_ferrari]

Looks like you didn't manage to cut and paste entire output.

Do su command first to become root. Then do lspci -v

[angela155]

bash: lspci: command not found

i kad this then as resolt

[deano_ferrari]

Lets try again:

Do su, then enter root password when prompted. Now enter /sbin/lspci -v

(You may not have had the correct path to just do lspci, although I don't know why).

A lot of audigy users are having a problem with their mixer. Please take a look at the mixer setup recommendations here, apply them, and see if that helps:

So, you have sound now? I guess its solved. :-)
