Assuming you've installed module-init-tools for the 2.6 kernel, there really are only three things: 1) Make sure you disable all OSS/Free support (either modularize with "m" or simply refuse with "n" all OSS/Free sound options; note you still need to keep Sound support (soundcore.ko) as a module). 2) Grab alsa-driver 1.0.6a, alsa-lib 1.0.6, and alsa-utils 1.0.6 from http://www.alsa-project.org/ . Freshrpms _may_ have up-to-date rpms for these, but I doubt it. To compile alsa-driver, you'll need configured kernel-source installed that matches _exactly_ your running 2.6 kernel. 3) ALSA's mixer is muted by default. Various vendors utilise a script to store mixer levels on shutdown and to restore them on boot. Barring that, run `alsamixer' and use 'm' to unmuted the channels. We idle in #alsa on irc.freenode.net. Another excellent help resource is: http://alsa.opensrc.org/ . HTH. -- Daniel T. Chen [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG key: www.sh.nu/~crimsun/pubkey.gpg.asc
