Sound Advice
Hi,
I would like to get my sound card working correctly (using all 4.1 speakers)
but I can't seem to figure out how. I have a GigaByte GA-K8NXP-SLI
motherboard with a built in RealTec ALC850 sound chip. At the moment I get
sound but only from 2.1 speakers. I think these drivers
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/dlac97-2.aspx?lineid=5&famid=12&series=8&Software=True#8Unix%20
(Linux)
would make it work but before I go and screw up my system trying to get them
installed is there a Debian way of installing / setting up these drivers?
lsmod shows the following sound related modules are installed
snd_intel8x0 35904 0
snd_ac97_codec 88836 1 snd_intel8x0
snd_pcm_oss 56544 0
snd_mixer_oss 19072 1 snd_pcm_oss
I have a feeling that the first one is actually the correct driver. If it is
then how do I get all the speakers working?
Many thanks,
Graham
