Found the kernel after and got the driver compiled. There is still no sound when I reboot with the alsa driver selected though. I've tried working my way through the syslog and I notice the following lines:Guys,
I've just looked on the mandrake install cd and there is an rpm called kernel-headers-2.4.18-41mdk.i586.rpm, which is all well and good until I type a uname -r command and get 2.4.19-16mdk. Not having done this type of thing before I'm taking the (sensibly) paranoid approach and posting here first. Is this a normal Linux thing to use older versions of the headers? i.e. were the differences between version *.18 and *.19 relatively trivial?
Alternatively there is an rpm named kernel-2.4.19.16mdk-1-1mdk.i586.rpm. Will this have the source and headers or just the object code?
Thank you
Garvin.
Hmm, I think kernel-2.4.19.16mdk-1-1mdk.i586.rpm is an i586-optimized, compiled kernel, not the headers. After a quick search on Google I found this:
ftp://speakeasy.rpmfind.net/linux/Mandrake/updates/9.0/RPMS/kernel-source-2.4.19-32mdk.i586.rpm
The -32mdk is the patch level from the guys at Mandrake (usually bootsplash type of things, custom logos, nothing major). Kernel base is still 2.4.19, so the difference with -16mdk should be minimum, at least less than they would be with big step backwards as 2.4.18. Good luck!

I also tried KMix to increase the volumes but it just appears with a grey window.
Any ideas?
