Nope. Still no sound. Might be a whole different issue. I remember though that when I attempted MythDora 4.0 and it reached the "playing the guitar" part, it first didn't play and I noticed I had two options. I don't remember what was the default (which didn't play), but I remember the other was nVidia!!! I chose that one, and it DID play! So soundcard does play nice with linux. Just have to figure out what that was that made it work!
Oh well.. Gotta go get my 4 hours of sleep.... Tough day tomorrow..

Combining my previous steps with fra's additions, here's what worked:
Code: cd /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.18-chw-13/include/linux/
/bin/rm -f i2c-id.h
wget http://lm-sensors.org/svn/i2c/trunk/kernel/i2c-id.h
cd /root
wget http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/100.14.11/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run
mv /usr/bin/startx .
pkill xinit
wget ftp://knoppmyth.net/R5/linux-source-2.6.18-chw-13_2.6.18-chw-13-10.00.Custom_all.deb
dpkg -i linux-source-2.6.18-chw-13_2.6.18-chw-13-10.00.Custom_all.deb
sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run
mv startx /usr/bin/
su - mythtv startx _________________ KnoppMyth R5.5

I haven't had a chance to verify my sound, but I'll do that this evening.
But as a preliminary, have you checked alsamixer to make sure the soundcard settings aren't muted and the volume is up?
If that's fine, we may have to check if we need new alsa drivers for this board. For another motherboard, here are the instructions on how to install new alsa drivers. Though if new drivers are needed, a different driver version from these instructions will probably be needed.

su - mythtv startx so you think even though that file i found on google is different from the one in R5F1, that shouldn't make any difference to the system?
you think that's not the reason i don't have sound?
i wonder what the issue is with sound! i'll look around what the forum says on what may have caused this problem.

Oh, and Human, also to clarify, for those who need to use these instructions, they won't have a DHCP client running at this point, so a "dhclient" command at the top of your code block will be needed.

It depends on when you do this. I installed it on a system where everything was already running, so I didn't need to do that. If you do it during the initial installation (after chrooting to /mnt/hdinstall) then, yes, you will need to establish a network connection either by running dhclient or netcardconfig. _________________ KnoppMyth R5.5

I had no sound problems after installing the new driver this way. Headers are only used at compile time, so unless you compiled a sound driver after installing the new header and the sound driver build process relied on that header, there should be no interference. _________________ KnoppMyth R5.5

I don't know what you mean by "run its config file" but I chose Yes for everything. oh. it asks:
Would you like to run the nvidia-xconfig utility to automatically update your X configuration file so that the NVIDIA X driver will be used when you restart X? Any pre-existing X configuration file will be backed up.
Yes No
so you chose yes?

Yes. If your xorg.conf is already set up to use the nvidia driver, you can select No, but Yes shouldn't hurt anything. _________________ KnoppMyth R5.5
