No apparent support for Creative Sounblaster 24 bit.

Fedora does not find any sound device.

Susi finds a device but can't activate it.

The ca0106 is supported. And after alsa-driver 1.0.9, it will have capture
support as well.
It does not support the sample rate of 44100, so you have to resample it
to 48000 in order to play the sound.
Either use the alsa device "plug:front" so that alsa does the resampling
for you, or use an application that can resample the sound. e.g. xine.

I am still getting no sound on my Dell 8400.

The card works on my windows 2000 partition so it is not a hardware
problem.

Why is it so difficult to get this card to work? Every other machine I
have set up has automatically found the soundcard and made it work on
Redhat Suse and Fedora with NO MANUAL CONFIGURATION required.

This card is a common one.
Dell is a common make of PC.
Fedora is a common distribution.
Surely I do not have a strange or unique configuration?


How do I "use the alsa device "plug:front" so that alsa does the
resampling for you" ? Please give some detailed instructions, I am not an
alsa expert and I've found no comprehensible alsa documentation on this.

I repeat. Is there anything I can do to help diagnose the problem?
