    You most likely don't have the needed driver for your sound card or sound chip. RHEL is not known for being a good multimedia distro. You can install all of the things needed to make it into one, but then you would have something that resembles Fedora (but with an old outdated kernel). Why not install Fedora 12 instead?

    If you still want to get it working in RHEL, you will need to know what the audio chip is. Run these commands, and post the output.

    Code:
    lspci
    Code:
    lsmod

    They are to provide ME with needed information. You should have provided that info in your original post.
