Reply With QuoteYou'll have to setup for ALSA since 9.1 uses that by default. Don't ask me how, I haven't done it yet. If you already know how to do OSS, then you can always recompile the kernel with OSS, and use that instead.
I installed Slack 9.1 on one of my newer boxes. The Motherboard is an Abit IT7-MAX2.Problem is onboard sound is Realtek ALC650 (AC-Link) and I cannot get it working in Slackware. I did an xconfig to try find it in the kernel but did not see anything nor did I in rc.modules.It works fine in SuSE 9.0 and Libranet 2.8.1Does someone know how to get this configured?What driver do I need?
Thank you folks

well, to start, you always need the soundcore module. Then, it looks like you need the ac97_codec module as well.

That is for the ac97_codec.

Sorry that that is for gentoo, but it is exactly the same for slackware, except you must compile alsa-driver and alsa-util. I am also not sure that the config files are in the same spots, but they certainly keep the same names
