Hey all, I got my neighbor to switch over to linux yesterday.
Problem is, I talked so highly about Linux and what it can do and I convinced
him to put it on his computer and do away with that windows 2000
professional.
Well after I got it all installed, it run great, but I couldn't get his sound
to work for the life of me.
He has an onboard sound and Mandrake cannot reconize it. He bought the
computer from a buddy for 300 bucks and didn't get any software or
documentation with it.
I looked up the model on the internet and tried to find out what sound system
he may have for his model, and I thought I found it, but it didn't work when
I tried it.
I have no idea how I can solve this problem. I feel like a complete idiot
after talking so great about linux and then failing to get the sound working.
I could really use some help here. I feel so stupid after talking so highly
about linux.
