They are compiled into the kernel in this particular attempt to get ALSA working. I have tried them as modules using an unpatched 2.4.20 in the past (see thread about Analogue subsections not ready) and had no joy. Also AlsaPlayer hangs on startup The only way I have had ALSA working is on 2.5.59 compiled directly into the kernel hence my attempts to use a similar setup with this patched jp series kernel. FWIW, when I was on 2.5.59 I was booting into the same install and everything[1] so I don't think the problem is at an application level. All applications that I have tried fail (XMMS, Mplayer, KMix and ARTS[2] being the ones I've tested with) Using the OSS driver it does work on my setup, but the OSS driver is very limited (48KHz only, no recording) and basically unuseable for what I want to do. Any ideas? [1] With the exception of mounting /dev/hde* rather than /dev/ataraid/* [2] I normally keep ARTS disabled, but it was worth trying to see if that worked. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SlickEdit Inc.
