Oh, no not THAT guy and his sound card again ! But wait, this is not a post to help me with something that does not work, rather its a post asking for help with why something DOES work !
Well, I booted up the ol machine tonight, and like a man guided by forces beyond his control, I logged into root on console, loaded the sound module (insmod sound), logged into root on x, disabled roots arts , logged out, logged in as user (in X) and hey, whaddya know, sound works ! If I unload sound /sbin/rmmod sound, the apps still work, so there is some other vital sound module that is loaded at bootup. So I've given up understanding how THAT works tonight, I have the old modules.conf file that I sent out earlier, I guess roots arts was hogging the device on bootup.... oh, well I was reading that it takes 1 week to get sound working on RH8.0, and I guess I just added to that statistic. In linux everything works...eventually :) -kg -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body "unsubscribe ilug-cal" and an empty subject line.
