18.3 Conﬁguring Your Red Hat Linux System For Sound 281

If you do not want sndconfig to probe for Plug and Play sound cards, run sndconfig with the

--noprobe option. It is also possible to manually specify the settings for your sound card; to do so,

run sndconfig with the --noautoconfig option.

If sndconfig cannot automatically identify your system’s sound card (or you ran sndconfig with

the --noprobe option), you’ll be asked to select the type of sound card you have (See Figure 18.2).

Use the

and keys to scroll through the different cards listed, and position the highlight on the

entry that matches your system’ssoundcard.

Figure 18.2: Selecting Sound Card Type

If you’ve run sndconfig with the --noautoconfig option, you’ll see a screen similar to the one in

Figure 18.3 on the next page. Here is where you can specify the settings for your sound card. Using

the

Tab key, select a ﬁeld. Then use the arrow keys to select the desired setting for that ﬁeld. When

ﬁnished, select Ok,andpress

Space .

After this screen, you may see an informational dialog box saying that /etc/conf.modules al-

ready exists. select Ok and press

Space to continue.

Finally, sndconfig will attempt to play a sound sample to verify proper conﬁguration of your sound

card. If you can hear the sound sample (make sure the speaker volume is turned up), you’re done!

Please Note: On cards that have a recognized MIDI synthesizer, sndconfig will attempt to play a

MIDI sample as well.
