First off, I get this in my logwatch daily: - ModProbe Begin Can't locate these modules: sound-service-3-0: 4 Time(s) sound-slot-1: 4 Time(s) sound-slot-2: 4 Time(s) sound-slot-3: 4 Time(s) sound-service-1-0: 4 Time(s) sound-service-2-0: 4 Time(s) these are module aliases called from soundcore.o if no corresponding sound device is found. since kde supports multiple devices (as default two devices), the system may probe the non-existing device occasionally. you can change the number of devices on kde control center. also, adding aliases would be fine, too, just like alias sound-slot-1 off alias sound-slot-2 off alias sound-service-1-0 off etc, etc.. Everything seems to work great, but I'm sorta' curious about those messages from logwatch. Also, I don't know if it's any relation or not, but when open a page with Konquorer that contains a midi, it locks the window up completely. Trying to go into kcontrol and clicking on midi also locks that window up. Don't know if this might be related to the modules problem above or what, but it's something I would sure like to get fixed. the latter is most likely irrelevant. ciao, Takashi --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf ___ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user

What it means is that some software using OSS tried to access what would be the 2nd sound card (or even the 3rd one in your case). In my case Audacity always does that (I have 2 sound cards, so Audacity always wants to load sound-slot-2, no idea why). You can get rid of all these messages in the log if you add lines like this to your modules.conf: alias sound-slot-1 off alias sound-slot-2 off etc. This will make it stop complaining. This still does not answer the question what gave it the idea to even try for the 3rd sound card :) -- ModProbe End - Here's a copy of my modules.conf file: alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc alias eth0 tulip alias usb-controller usb-uhci alias char-major-195 NVdriver # ALSA portion alias char-major-116 snd alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1 # module options should go here # OSS/Free portion alias char-major-14 soundcore alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 # card #1 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss Everything seems to work great, but I'm sorta' curious about those messages from logwatch.
