G5 sound and airport

[James Cass]

Vince -

Unless something has changed recently, native Airport Extreme is not 
supported yet (only original non-Extreme Airport is supported).  The 
reason I've seen posted is that Broadcom hasn't made enough information 
available to the public in order to write an Airport Extremed driver 
for YDL.  Some people have purchased a third party wireless card as a 
workaround.  You'll need to do a list search for this.  Sorry.

Someone else will have to chime in about your sound issue.
