Thanks for your advice.
Gentoo 1.4 Linux version 2.4.20-gentoo-r7 genkernel-1.8 Creative Sound Blaster Live. =====================
I followed http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml Code listing 2.1: Kernel configuration to proceed
Some thing strange happened
# cd /usr/src/linux # cp .config config-AA.bak cp: cannot stat `.config': No such file or directory # cp .config ~/ cp: cannot stat `.config': No such file or directory # find / -name .config /root/.conf
The .config file in under /root/
# cd /root/ # ls -al ...... .config .....
Shall I start from there

You don't need the driver from Alsa!!! When you merge alsa-driver it will get what you need if you tell it.
First read the Gentoo doc.
Second, read the ALSA doc pertaining to your sound card. That's why I referenced Alsa - it gives you some information on setting up /etc/modules.d/alsa file.
Third set the environment variable to the card type which will tell Alsa to install just that driver rather than all of them.
Finally, merge alsa-driver, alsa-util, alsa-tools and set up the /etc/modules.d/alsa file for your card.
Then run modules-update
The run the rc-update per the Gentoo docs.

Hi brett,
Thanks for your advice. I will download corresponding driver from www.alsa-project.org relevant to my sound card, Creative Sound Blaster Live. Previously I have installed this sound card on RH9 without problem. But I am inexperienced on Gentoo. I hope I can manage.
Thanks

Yes, the alsa doc will work. Also check out www.alsa-project.org adn the details on your sound card.
