Hi,
Can someone please give me some clues on how to get sound working in F9.

What is your sound card? try use *alsamixer *command.

Hi Waleed,
Sound card is Intel Corp 82801H (ICH Family) HD Audio Controller (Rev 03)
/usr/bin/alsamixer gives 'No mixer elems found'.
Also, clicking on the volume contrtol gives the following:
The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that you don't have a sound card configured.
You can remove the volume control from the panel by right-clicking the speaker icon on the panel and selecting "Remove From Panel" from the menu.
All the gstreamer packages that came with F9 are installed:
gstreamer-0.10.19-1.fc9.i386.rpm gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.19-2.fc9.i386.rpm gstreamer-plugins-flumpegdemux-0.10.15-2.fc9.i386.rpm gstreagstreamer-plugins-good-0.10.8-7.fc9.i386.rpm gstreamer-plugins-pulse-0.9.5-0.5.svn20070924.fc9.i386.rpm gstreamer-python-0.10.11-2.fc9.i386.rpm gstreamer-tools-0.10.19-1.fc9.i386.rpm
This seems to indicate that no sound card has been configured. Fair enough.
dmesg says that the sound card has been found. dmesg | grep sound shows the following:

I am well and truly confused. Does any of the above make sense to you?

I am not sure about the 82801H, but the 82801G can have problems if yours is not one of the ones that ALSA know the configuration of. You then need to specify a model in modprobe.conf to let the driver know what configuration to use. (The chip can be configured in many different ways, depending on how the manufacturer wants to use it.)
To make things more interesting, the model that mostly works in one version of ALSA may not work in the next one. For example, this one used to work on my Toshibs A105-S4004:
options snd-hda-intel index=0 single_cmd=1 model=ref
In a later version, I had to use:
options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=auto
I still have to find the correct line for the current version when I have the spare time to do it.

Thanks Mikkel, you have pointed me in the right direction. The sound controller is found. The following line is from /sbin/lspci
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)
The output of /sbin/lsmod | grep snd shows that sound modules are loaded. Does the following make any sense to you?
snd_hda_intel 336928 0 snd_seq_dummy 6660 0 snd_seq_oss 30364 0 snd_seq_midi_event 9600 1 snd_seq_oss snd_seq 48448 5 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi_event snd_seq_device 10124 3 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq snd_pcm_oss 42496 0 snd_mixer_oss 16768 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 67076 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 21640 2 snd_seq,snd_pcm snd_page_alloc 11400 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm snd_hwdep 10500 1 snd_hda_intel snd 48312 10 snd_hda_intel,snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_seq_device,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_hwdep soundcore 9288 1 snd
Do I have to start the sound server somehow or just put in the options as you suggest?
Ta,
GN

Hi again Mikkel,
I have no idea what I did but the attached error popped up on the screen. Do you know what /dev/dsp is?

Hi,
Have you updated your FC9? What is your kernel version? run cmd: uname -a
Try update your FC9 via cmd: yum -y update, then reboot the machine and test your sound.

Nothing to do with your query, I'm afraid, but as a matter of interest,
(1) How do you save the error message as a PNG file (I presume)? and
(2) How do you include this in your posting?
I'm using knode to read the news, and I see your insert perfectly.
