I have HP Pavilion 8670C with a PCI-sound card Rockwell International Model 207a. I am running Red Hat 7 on my machine and it is not compatible. Does anyone know any tricks to getting it to work?
Thanks-Bob Gillette

Try using sndconfig from the command line.
It will ask u for the Irq and DMA port number. Normally Irq 10 or 11 is used and port numbers is normally 200 or 220

I had Linux on a HP Pavilion pc that had the same integrated modem/soundcard thing, but never could get it to work because of it. If your computer supports it, and if your willing to pay, and regular Soundblaster 16 or better installed in your computer is the easiest of all to setup, and they work great. I had to switch from my old Diamond Wavtable soundcard to a SB because of compatibility issues.
