Onboard Sound... REALY NEW TO LENUX...Like I don't know squat.
I am running Linux RH Mandrake 6.5 on an Asus P5A-B mother board, AMD K6-II 450mhz. and I have onboard sound ( 16 bit). I have set up linux and have the KDE and GNOME interfaces. when I set it up (two days ago) it did not ask me anything about my sound, and I am not sure what i need to do to configure it ( if anything). I have not tried it ( I blough out my speakers) it yet, but I am getting new speakers this week end, and don't want to screw it up if I need to do anything. I also would like to know of any good Linux books writen for RH Mandrake 6.5 ( if any ) or anything that would be good for this system.

I need more information on your built-in sound card. 1)Is it a SB16 compatible device? 2) Do you know what the setting are for the device?( I/O, IRQ, DMA, etc.

Try running /usr/sbin/sndconfig and see if that get's it running.
