im trying to set up spdif output (with the on board sound) and i cant seem to find any where online that will help me, most say edit the /etc/asound.conf file and just change a bool setting but that file isnt there, could some one enlighten me on what file i need to edit and where it would be?


thanks

my specs

asus a7v8x-x
athlon xp 2500+
256mb pc 2700
pvr 250 mce
geforce 3 ti 200

well i managed to get it outputing and at a nice volume... how
your guess is a good as mine, i was fooling with the mixer
and i found some where a comment that one of them needs to be at 0 zero percent so i did that to them all and went from there now it works
