Hi Lee. In /usr/share/alsa/cards. But I may be looking in the wrong directory, 
and they are all .conf files. The only other place I can find emu10k1 is in.
/lib/modules/2.6.10-0.4.rdt.rhfc2.ccrma/kernel/sound/pci/emu10k1. there are 
three object code files here. snd-emu10k1.ko, snd-emu10k1-synth.ko, and 
snd-emu10k1x.ko which I believe is the card used on Dell computers. I think 
perhaps I am in the correct directory here, as apart from subdirectories for 
emu10k1, ice1712, trident,etc, I have some files, and one of these is 
snd-cmipci.ko. I presume that this is the directory that the module 
snd-cmipci is being loaded from, if I had a soundcard requiring that driver.

This is all a bit academic, but I'd like to understand a bit more about Alsa, 
where the the souncard drivers are, etc. Nigel.
