It shipped with 2.4.2 IIRC, though I've updated it to stock 2.4.17. > most likely the configuration of alsa driver doesn't match with your > current kernel config. Not sure what you mean here... I only have kernel sources for my running 2.4.17 kernel, if that's what you mean. So it's not possible that they don't match, if that is what you mean... And both configure and make output indicate it's being compiled for the right kernel, in the right location, aside from the fact that it's installing them in kernel/sound, as opposed to misc. > please elaborate your prolbem. what says modprobe? The problem is that if the alsa modules are not installed in /lib/modules/<KVER>/misc, modprobe can't find them to load them. Once they are installed there, everything works fine. This is as it was with the 0.9.something beta something that I was using before this, also... meaning that when I installed the beta drivers previously, they installed in the misc directory (with out me telling them to do so specifically, as far as I can remember), and everything worked fine. Is it possible that this is due to the version of modutils that I have, and not related to the kernel at all? This is with Red Hat's modutils-2.4.13-0.7.1 rpm... > what happens if you run "depmod -ae"? Well, I set the command line for configure to place them in the misc directory, so everything is working now. There is no output from depmod -ae, but presumably there would be had I allowed the drivers to be installed in the kernel/sound directories? If you feel that it would be helpful, I could always blow away my modules, and install them in the other location. - -- Derek Martin [EMAIL PROTECTED] - --------------------------------------------- I prefer mail encrypted with PGP/GPG!
