I recently upgraded (read: re-installed) to Mandrake 8.1. Since then, my
sound card has not been working. The sound card was working fine under
Mandrake 8.0 and still works when I boot to Win98SE. It's a Creative SB AWE64.
When I run sndconfig, it first says:
........
ISAPNP Probe Results
A ISAPNP sound card was found in
your system. The details are:
Model: Creative SB AWE64
PnP:Audio
........
OK. All looks good so far. Hit OK for the sound sample, and I get:
........
modprobe error
The following error occurred running the modprobe program:
/lib/modules/2.4.8-26mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o.gz:
init_module: No such device
/lib/modules/2.4.8-26mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o.gz: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.8-26mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o.gz failed
/lib/modules/2.4.8-26mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o.gz: insmod
sound-slot-0 failed
........
OK. Not so good... It spits me into manual config and I try a zillion
combinations for IRQ/IO/DMA including those which work for Win98 and still,
the same thing comes out. Also, I'm not sure if this is relavent, but when I
probe the driver with insmod, it returns unresolved symbols. Is this supposed
to happen? Maybe my sb.o is corrupt?

Thanks for any help getting this working,
