I will stick with my half-duplex driver. It is more complicated to do by hand. But, if you use kmod it's really not all that difficult. alsaconfig (from the alsa-base package) will ask you for the necessary info, and add the proper information to /etc/conf.modules. For Debian, you'll need to grab that section (it's clearly marked) and put it in /etc/modutils/. If you really want to do it by hand, it looks like you need to insert the modules in something like this order. The banged ones take options. soundcore snd (!) snd-mixer-oss, snd-seq-device, snd-midi, snd-pcm, snd-timer, snd-mixer snd-hwdep snd-pcm1 snd-pcm1-oss, snd-mpu401-uart card-specific modules, in order (e.g. snd-sb16-dsp before snd-sb16-csp before snd-card-sb16 (!)) You could probably skip the oss ones if you don't want support for OSS-style sound interfaces. You probably want this though. You might be able to skip the snd-midi and snd-mpu401-uart if you don't want midi support. And the above list may easily have errors. - -- finger for PGP public key. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: noconv iQCVAwUBN/vq4r7M/9WKZLW5AQFM7QP7BS0VwmCozcerdTnCgiejHf/sVf5kpqo0 HYbFQZZ9ckFn2ayGJjxAwbSFfSM2yr8MkeighB0i/13H4mIxcUlDZF/wVBTLZJii zreaZDEOjY1lMT8d6STgj4i7HQ7t98A0+ReyEgq9PxS/QeqDBnV+xy4SzIv183Q8 hiPQJ8nYkyA= =OLIr -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
