Uninstalling Hardware in Linux
Hey I'm new to both the linux community as well as these forums. My problem consists of having both my onboard sound and creative live! soundcard being installed. The onboard is I guess the default as sound will only come out when plugged in to it. My question is how do you uninstall hardware in linux so that I can resolve this issue. Before you suggest disabling the onboard in bios, I have already done this and since I've done this I'm really confused as to how linux can see my onboard sound when technically it doesn't have any resources assigned to it. Anyways any suggestions are appreciated, thanks.
Motherboard: Biostar M7VKD
Onboard Sound: AC'97
PCI Soundcard: Creative Live!
Linux: Mandriva 2006 RC2

sound card
In order to avoid Hardware conflicts disable the onboard sound card from your BIOS.
Mandriva should auto detect the change on boot
