Hey everybody!
I just installed Gentoo on my PBG4, it is 1000MHz and about a year old. I
used genkernel to make my kernel so according to the ALSA Howto on
Gentoo.org I should have sound support. I have made sure that my USE
variable contains 'alsa' but when I do a 'lspci | grep -i audio'

Thanks for the write back! I compiled that as part of the kernel and not
a module, yet nothing is detected at startup and /proc/asound/cards shows
nothing... how did you get it working? How can I test to make sure that
it is in the kernel? or does the fact that were having this convo say
that?

Writing to NTFS partitions is not recommended - what writing that is
supported is very limited.
Only over writing files and to exactly the same size iirc.
If you need to share data between Win and Lin, a FAT32 partition (or
