Not just snd.o, you should delete any old installs of alsa. After you reinstall check that the snd.o module in the /lib/modules/2.4.20-20.9smp tree has the right date. -- Fernando ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: VM Ware With VMware you can run multiple operating systems on a single machine.
