I'm not using X, i'm headless.  I am using frame buffer, why would FB
effect sound, the video is on the AGP, not the PCI buss? I'm happy to go
down this trail, explain a bit more please.  Should I turn frame buffer off?

I use a standard Fedora install which I presume uses a framebuffer
since it's wholly graphical. However, my * server does nothing but *
and runs headless in my rack. I administer it using ssh.

I don't think that having the graphical desktop (Gnome I think)
installed has caused any problems at all. At least not that I can tell.

Curios, if you're running headless why are you using FB?
