Sound card seems to be screwed up

[pghacker]

alright.. the redhat 9 found out the exact model of my sound card and had no prob configuring it.. but the problem seems to be ... that the sound coming out, isn't the sound that is supposed to come out.. the sound is all the same.. weird.. sound.. it's cracked sound.. and.. i dont know how to describe it.. it seems like the sound is coming out real slow and it's not normal (that's for sure)

anyone help? sigh..

So what model of soundcard would this be and what are the modules that are loaded that are sound related?

[pghacker]

ok the soundcard is..
82801AA AC`97 Audio

and the module is i810 audio

ok.. i think the sound is more like radio static..
but it's really loud and pretty slow.. and nothing like what it should sound like..

sigh.. i dont know what the heck the problem is..
it finds the sound card alright, sets it alright, but the sound coming out isn't right.. but it works good in windows xp..

heeeelp

Sounds like a kernel/module bug. I'm using the same type of card/driver in Gentoo and have no troubles.

I've seen similar threads posted here on 'slow' and 'static' related sound problems, BUT I cannot remember what the solution was. You can try searching the JL forums for 'i810 sound' etc. to see if you can find anything to help.

Are the correct modules loaded?

lsmod (list loaded modules)

PnP OS disabled in the bios?

Power Management also disabled in the bios as that 'could' be the cause. ??

Tried different sound mixers?
