I really thanks Martin ans sorry about my little english, I need some help
with this becuse I downloaded the files from Cretive labs page:

http://developer.soundblaster.com/linux/

and the files are:

README
mod_conf
install_emu10k1
emu10k1.o-2.2.5-15
emu10k1.o-2.2.10
emu10k1.o-2.0.36

My firs problem after read the "README" file was "install_emu10k1" did't work
and I tried manual installation. Please tell me if my steps have mistakes:


1. Determine your kernel sound modules installation location
     (usually /lib/modules/2.x.y/misc)

I did it the driversare in "/lib/modules/2.2.9-19mdk/misc"

2. Copy the appropriate driver to that location as emu10k1.o
     (eg. /lib/modules/2.x.y/misc/emu10k1.o)

I tried it butwhat is the right file? for my kernel version?

3. Unload all existing soundcard drivers, including soundcore

May be here is the problem, how must I do it?

4. Remove all old soundcard references from /etc/conf.modules

In my "conf.modules" file are not sound drivers is a file with 3 lines

5. Add a new reference to the driver in /etc/conf.modules:
     (eg. "alias sound emu10k1" or "alias char-major-14 emu10k1")

I use "alias sound emu10k1" and the other but doesn't work

6. If your kernel is compiled with version information, add the following 
   lines to /etc/conf.modules after the previous statement:
     pre-install emu10k1 insmod soundcore
     post-remove emu10k1 rmmod soundcore

How can I verify if "my kernel is compiled with version information"?

7. Load the driver: "modprobe emu10k1"


PLEASE HELP!!!!!! I spent US$200 in this card and it doesnt work!!!!!!
help again.
