Greetings, I have an Aztech 2320 PNP ISA sound card in a Compaq Prolinea 575e which I had working with Redhat 6.2. The tricky thing is that the secondary IDE port requires a special Compaq driver to work...so I put my two hard disks on the primary controller and hooked the cdrom up to the IDE port on the sound card. I got this setup to work in 6.2 by modifying the isapnp.conf file so that there weren't any conflicts. When I upgraded to 7.0 (did a clean install actually), I tarred/gzipped my old /etc directory and then forgot to move it somewhere safe! :^( However, I remember how I set the card up (as far as isapnp.conf goes)...that doesn't appear to be my current problem. As it is, I can use my cdrom just fine (I installed 7 from it). The problem is that when I try to use sndconfig to set my card up it hangs after detecting the proper card. If I run it with the noautoconfig switch it doesn't hang, but I get errors when it tries to insmod the modules. Most of the error messages have to do with device or resource busy. So I tried setting it up by hand. Before upgrading I printed out my modules.conf file, so I copied the lines from it into my current one. But now I get unresolved symbol errors when I try to install the modules. Also, whenever I run isapnp it chokes saying that I'm trying to CHECK an already activated device. I can take the CHECK commands out, but it still won't work. (And I didn't have that problem with 6.2.) Sorry that the error messages aren't verbatim, but it screws my system up every time I try anything and I have to reboot. If anyone can help (including a request for more info) it would be greatly appreciated (I can't even listen to Enya :(). Thanks, Ben Logan P.S. While on the subject of cdroms... I've got another machine with a relatively new 40x cd drive in it. It reads data fine but skips every once in a while when it's playing music. It does this in both windows and linux. It started just a few months after I got it, and it hasn't been used much. Seems like a short lifespan for a $60 device. I ran a cleaning cd in it, but that didn't help...any ideas? _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
