It seems that alsaconf loads the correct alsa driver in your case. This is all it is supposed to do, if I understand the script correctly. (The relevant line is "modprobe $CARD_DRIVER".) I do not know if this is supposed to trigger the loading of snd_pcm_oss. (Some people might not want to have the OSS legacy support modules loaded by default.) -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
