I don't know internals of rpm --rebuilddb but I was using it and it seems that it doesn't search hard disk for installed third party software. The sound driver is: realtek-linux-audiopack-4.05f.tar.bz2 and it will compile alsa driver and some XRealMixer v0.5 from sources. John mentioned that he removed directories, but I didn't ask which as installing alsa via YaST should bring sound in order. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
