I just swapped out an old sound card for a newer one. The reason for the swap is to try digital out. How do I get Knoppmyth to detect my new card? I know when I swap capture cards the setup will detect them and rerun mythtv-setup but I'm not sure how I get the proper drivers loaded for the new sound card. I know I could just to a backup and reinstall Knoppmyth but I'm hoping for an easier solution.

Thanks

If it's a supported card, you should just be able to turn it off, plug the card in and boot. You may also need to run (as root) "twk_audio --implement digital" to adjust the myth settings and turn on the optical out's light if you didn't previoiusly have a digital card.

It's a Sound Blaster Live Value. I turned off the computer, removed the old card and plugged in the new one into the same PCI slot and rebooted. Now I don't have sound out of the analog jack. I was going to start with analog and make sure that was working before trying digital. Is there a command I can run to make sure it's been detected properly by linux?

This looks relevant - http://knoppmyth.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=18681

The following was all done remotely so I haven't had the chance to actually check to see if I'm getting sound. I'll do that tonight.

My sound (analog) is now working. I tried a bunch of different things but I'm assuming alsaconf did the trick. Now I'm off to play with digital out. Thanks
