Hi,

Ive successfully installed all the 0.9 alsa drivers and edited my
/etc/modules.conf file.
But Ive got a few nagging questions.

My soundcard is a SB Live 5.1
O/S: RH 7.2
Kernel-2.4.9-13

When I start up the pc i have to manually probe to load the drivers, so
i put /sbin/modprobe snd-card-emu10k1 in /etc/rc.d/rc.local
and also when I log into my desktop, I have to run a mixer to get the
sound to work.
But my main concern is that I don't think Its using either the full
extent of the Alsa drivers or not really using them at all.

I ve put up *all* the setting to full using alsamixer, but there seems
to be a lack of Bass,Trebleb and general quality etc..

Heres the output of my /etc/modules.conf:

# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd

# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore

# OSS/Free portion - card #1
alias sblive snd-card-emu10k1
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
options snd snd_major=116 snd_cards_limit=1 snd_device_mode=0666
snd_device_gid=0 snd_device_uid=0
options snd-card-emu10k1 snd_index=0 snd_id=LIVE

post-install sblive alsactl store LIVE >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
pre-remove sblive alsactl restore LIVE >/dev/null 2>&1 || :

All over referance to the original driver Ive removed.

And heres the output of cat /proc/modules (refering to my soundcard),
this is what comes up when say i play a dvd

Any help would be great
