------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-20-09 10:52 ------- OK. I removed the sound-related entries from /etc/modules and modified /etc/modules.conf so that the sound-related entries are as follows: # Sound Config alias /dev/dsp sound-server-0-3 alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-cs4236 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss alias char-major-116 snd alias char-major-14 soundcore options snd snd_major=116 snd_cards_limit=1 options snd_index=1 snd-card-cs4236 snd_port=0x534 \ snd_cport=0x210 snd_mpu_port=0x220 snd_fm_port=0x388 \ snd_irq=5 snd_mpu_irq=7 snd_dma1=1 After reboot, /var/log/syslog show these messages: Sep 20 10:18:26 localhost kernel: isapnp: Scanning for PnP cards...

I should note that before I started making changes by hand in modules.conf, I tried both alsaconf and sndconfig. alsaconf did not seem to recognise the sound device at all, while sndconfig did - but still failing to set up /etc/modules.conf correctly. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: NEEDINFO creation_date: description: This applies to MDK 9.1 beta 3. System: Dell Precision Workstation 610 MT, dual Pentium II-450MHz with on-board Crystal sound card. MDK 9.1-B3 does not detect any sound card at all here. Trying with other Linux distros: RedHat 8.0: Kudzu finds "new hardware" - CS4236B on first boot after installation. I didn't get it to work with KDE, though. SuSE 8.1 Live-Eval (running from demo CD only): finds "new hardware" - Crystal Multimedia audio controller after logging in on KDE. No sound server connected to it, though. Apparently, this sound card has worked on Mandrake distros before, see: http://www.experts-exchange.com/Operating_Systems/Linux/Q_11422758.html Crystal Semiconductor is owned by Cirrus Logic.
