Hi all, I already sent this message to debian.user but no response over there so I thought I'd try here. I finally plucked up my courage and put in another hard disk and installed 2.6.8-11-amd64-k8 which is running independently of my i386 installation. Loads of problems but perhaps the easiest is what do I do to get my architecture into /etc/modutils/arch and/or /etc/modprobe.d/arch? I can't install the alsa drivers because although alsa finds the correct card and driver snd_via82xx, it whinges about not finding the amd64 architecture as shown here: Running update-modules... Architecture-specific modutils configuration not found, using defaults Loading driver... Setting default volumes... The contents of the /etc/modutils/arch is: alpha m68k.amiga m68k.generic mips.ip22 powerpc.generic s390 i386 m68k.atari m68k.mac powerpc.apus powerpc.pmac s390x The contenst of /etc/modprobe.d/arch is: i386 but no amd64 listed in either. I've got the kernel-source headers etc. lsmod looks like this (just the relevant bits): Module Size Used by snd_via82xx 29092 0 snd_ac97_codec 73220 1 snd_via82xx snd_pcm 100876 1 snd_via82xx snd_timer 24968 1 snd_pcm snd_page_alloc 12944 2 snd_via82xx,snd_pcm gameport 5120 1 snd_via82xx snd_mpu401_uart 8192 1 snd_via82xx snd_rawmidi 26532 1 snd_mpu401_uart snd_seq_device 9164 1 snd_rawmidi snd 56936 7 snd_via82xx,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_mpu401_uart, snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device soundcore 11232 1 snd
I've tried running modprobe, update-modules, reinstalling module-init-tools, etc. No joy. So what do I need to do to get alsa to recognise my architecture, if that is indeed the problem?
