Hmm, when I went to the Planet CCRMA website, it said "Install Fedora Core
3.  You should now have a properly configured and working sound card. 
Then install the CCRMA sound applications."  What's wrong with this
picture is that I don't have a properly configured and working sound card
after doing the Fedora Core 3 install.  It didn't recognize my Audiophile
2496 as far as I can tell--it configured the onboard sound.  Can you tell
me more specifically what you did to get the Audiophile 2496 working?

Thanks,
Mike
