Re: Yamaha 32-Bit

[Rajesh Fowkar <rfowkar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Sunil,

I also have the same card and had faced same problem in configuring the same
under Red Hat Linux 5.2. But when I installed Red Hat 6 it automatically
recognised my Yamaha OPL-SAx3 sound card. 

So try to install Red Hat 6 and you will face no problems in configuring your
sound card since Red Hat Linux 6 supports Yamaha Sound Cards. If you want to
still persist with Red Hat Linux 5.2 then I can send send you my sound
configuration file.

Best of luck

Rajesh
