Just to introduce, my name is Ken Gosier, I am a newbie to this list, have been lurking for a week or two. I am an (almost) newbie to Linux, and I have an (almost) newbie question: I have a Toshiba laptop, dual-boot into Win98 and RH 6.0. I'm setting up sound for it. I did everything in all the manuals fine, so now I have sound and can listen to CD's etc. The problem is, the max sound volume on the Win98 half of my machine is *much* louder than on the Linux side. With the control all the way up on Linux, the volume is OK, but not really satisfying. What I've done so far: -- I've used the mixer applet, the volume control of the CD player application - I've set the volume to max on all of these, and I also put the computer's external volume control all the way up. (In other words, I've read all the manuals that came in the box with the Red Hat CD's :) -- I looked into the LDP Sound HOWTO, but nothing there seemed to address this issue. So anyway, here's some technical info I got from windows: Win98 is running sound with the Yamaha OPL3-SAx WDM driver, provided by Microsoft. The I/O Range is 0220-022F The IRQ is 05 The DMA is 01 (and 00, I'm pretty sure.)
