Ok I can't get my sound to work. I have a conexant card. It looks like it thinks that the card is working from everything i have seen. So it looks like the card is running all well, except for that no sound is coming out of my speakers. I don't know much about how to configure sound. Can anyone tell me what I would do to try to figure out what the problem is? And once I figure that out, how to fix it? The only distro that I have tried that has worked with my sound is ubuntu. Does anyone know what Ubuntu does differently with sound than most other distros?

if you want to learn how to configure your sound card, the Gentoo ALSA guide is a great start. If you want to get specifics about your card... go to this url: http://www.alsa-project.org/

I have this card on my Debian system and it works great. But I just let the distribution figure out how to set it up after I followed the links above.
