I had a similar thing, no sound with any kernel after .18 My card is not the same as yours so my exact solution won't work for you. What I did was note which modules were loaded, then run alsaconf and let it do it's thing. Note which new modules it loaded and put those in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 It appeared to be that the modules dependency information changed with my driver around .18 and the earlier config just didn't cut it anymore. Of course, I could also be completely wrong :-) alan -- Optimists say the glass is half full, Pessimists say the glass is half empty, Developers say wtf is the glass twice as big as it needs to be?
