Thanks for your replies! My slack is 2.6.11 kernel with ac patch. and it was configured with yestoall because that was my first attempt at kernel and I missed up on lot of things. on the other hand, my LFS kernel is 2.6.13-4 (yeah, I forgot to mention that diviation. Sorry) and ITE 82xx drivers were merged in it already. So I assumed they would be better than the ac-patch. How do you list out the modules that are loaded? I did a lsmodand got the following output. Module Size Used by ipv6 225760 34 hci_usb 13448 0 bluetooth 42372 1 hci_usb pcspkr 3548 0 rtc 10680 0 e1000 101044 0 nvidia 3706952 12 snd_intel8x0 29376 0 snd_ac97_codec 81020 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_pcm 81156 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec snd_timer 21508 1 snd_pcm snd 45796 4 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm,snd_timer snd_page_alloc 8584 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm joydev 8256 0 ntfs 195344 2 Thnkyou for the help Subhash Chandra -- ╔════════════════════════════╗ ║I don't know how much of what I say is true ║ ╚════════════════════════════╝
