Re: [Sound] Audigy sound driver problem with installing.

Than your kernel source prabably didnt install correct.
I would do a fresh install if you can. And install the new
kernel and sources over. Also, I would update the kernel
through the RedHat Network.

You will need to use the kernel source for the kernel you
wish to run. Which should be the new one.
