OK, easy enough. I've followed this procedure for a while with modprobe and it tends to work on most "modular" systems I've tried it on. This is for the on-board audio card I hate in another machine... but it would still apply: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/modprobe.d$ cat blacklist-duke blacklist snd_via82xx_modem blacklist snd_via82xx So, as you can see, you would need to make a file like this: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-machinename Add all the cs423* files in there like this: blacklist snd-opti92x-cs4231 blacklist snd-cs4236 blacklist snd-cs4236-lib blacklist snd-cs4232 blacklist snd-cs4231 blacklist snd-cs4231-lib I use the blacklist-machinename so I know it will survive upgrades. Quite a few times I had to re-edit the regular blacklist after an upgrade. So I went through the scripts and found it looked for "blacklist*" (pretty much that is) and did that.
