First off here are the relevant modules *I* have loaded from alsa:
snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi-event snd-seq snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss snd-via82xx snd-pcm snd-timer snd-ac97-codec snd-page-alloc snd-mpu401-uart snd-rawmidi snd-seq-device snd soundcore I am thinking you have the OSS module loaded. make sure you do not load that module in /etc/modules. You can manually unload it for now using: modprobe -r cs46xx You might not be able to while *X* is running. So... /etc/init.d/<gdm|kdm|xdm> stop # which every display manager is running for you The do the modprobe -r cs46xx Then try: /etc/init.d/alsa start That should start up alsa. You have to make sure you do not load the old OSS modules. But alsa supports OSS compatibility with the "-oss" modules. Sound should work... you may want rid you also configure you system to NOT use OSS but alsa directly... (using the modules that don't end in -oss) It a bit difficulty to get you arms around at first but you should be fine. -- greg, [EMAIL PROTECTED] REMEMBER ED CURRY! http://www.iwethey.org/ed_curry You hail the calves as eloquently as any facade of Easter Island.
