My computer has Intel SE440BX mother board with Yamaha YMF740 PCI
onboard sound.
In RedHat 7.1 (kernel 2.4.2), sound recording doesn't work (using
GNOME sound recorder). When using 16-bit pcm, only silence is recorded
and in 8-bit, recorded sound quality is poor (noisy and interrupted).
It is the same when recording with dd command from /dev/dsp device.
However, playback works without problems. Mixer was correctly set to
microphone source.
I tried with newer kernel (2.4.5) and different configurations, but it
was always the same.
I'm using ymfpci kernel driver for sound card.
In windows, recording works fine and in good quality.
Can anyone help me?
Regards,
Robert
