I would highly recommend using the planetccrma fedora
core 3 packages.
See
http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/
I just started using the Audiophile 2496 along with the onboard sound of
my motherboard and the planetccrma kernel and packages work flawlessly.
They have a package called envy24control or something like that which
works very well with the 2496.
Hope this helps,

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

Subject: [linux-audio-user] audiophile 2496 with Fedora Core 3
Hello,
I'm new to the Linux sound world. I'm trying to get an Audiophile
2496 to
work on Fedora Core 3. I was able to install the OSS driver;
however, it
isn't putting sound out the SPDIF output, which is what I want. I
triedto run alsamixer but got a message
alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device or
address
Searching the web I see many people claim to get the Audiophile 2496
working but they describe how they did it in very general terms
that I
don't understand.
Can anyone help, or point me to the right forum if this isn't it?
Thanks so much,
Mike
