Soundcard Problems in Mandrake

    Hey

    For some reason I can't get the sound to work on my newly installed version of Mandrake 8.2.

    My soundcard is a Yamaha YCMF-726f.

    The system picks it up but just won't play any sound.

    And before ye ask I have turned the sound up in the control centre.

    If anyone could help it would be much appreciated...

    2 Questions for you:

    1. Is the sound card module installed? as root type "lsmod" in a shell(xterm).

    2. Are you root when you try to play sounds? if not try it as root.
    if that works as root type "chmod +w /dev/dsp" in a shell.

    Regards,

    Paul
