do an lsmod and see id the i810 is mentioned, if it is rmmod it and rmmod your creative cards drivers
then reload you creative cards module and enjoy sound! if its not a module you might have to make a new kernel. you might also be able to swithc it off int he bios ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Sydney Linux Users Group" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, November 25, 2002 9:14 PM Subject: [SLUG] Motherboard replacement = no sound > After replacing my motherboard it's been almost 3 weeks with no system > crashes, even doing all the things that used to crash Linux, including > running X in 1600x1200. :-) > > But sound no longer works.
