Hi,
I installed RH 8.0. It didn't detect my sound card which is a SB16. After installation I ran sndconfig, had no such fil or command. So I installed it since it wan't installed and it gave me the same error when I installed it. I ran the command at root. What gives? Thanks. :cry:

Jump to PostHow did you install it? As an RPM package? What if you type rpm -q sndconfig ??
Jump to PostAnd you have tried logging in as root and just typing in "sndconfig" ? Not doing an su but actually logging in in a new tty?
Jump to PostBasically, when you first login, login as root instead of your normal user. I think you'll have access to sndconfig that way. By default, you have 6 teletype terminals (ttys) to work with. You can access them with ctrl+alt+F1 through ctrl+alt+F6. You can also switch back and forth through them. …
Jump to PostType startx :) F1-F6 control 6 terminals. F7-F12 control 6 X sessions.
