sound card install, will not work.

Hi all,

I installed a generic soundcard, to replace my failed onboard sound.

I disabled the onboard sound from the BIOS.

Now I got this error in YAST->Hardware->Sound

How can I fix this?

The drivers from the onboard sound is still here too. Should I just delete them?

Thanks

Please follow the openSUSE audio troubleshooting guide:
SDB:AudioTroubleshooting - openSUSE

In particular, install alsa-firmware, and reboot your PC, and test your sound. Check your mixer while your sound test is playing. I recommend you copy and paste this into an xterm/konsole to test your sound:
speaker-test -c2 -Ddefault -l5 -twav

If you mean the alsa drivers, then definitely not. Or are you referring to some other custom driver that you installed?

I too can not get any sound with my new install of OpenSuse 11.0. My settings can be found at general pastebin - bernie - post number 1063213 .

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advanced,

Jasonbrant, your mixer is setup wrong.

Take a look here for guidance:
