I'm not familiar with suse, but that means that the alsa installation process didn't put the module you need in /lib/modules/X.Y.Z, where X.Y.Z is your kernel version (e.g. 2.4.17 for me). My alsa modules are all in /lib/modules/2.4.17/misc, including snd-card-ice1712.o. I can't help you with your suse packages, but if you download alsa from the alsa-project.org site, you would do the installation this way: 0) You need a kernel with sound support compiled in, but NO support for any specific soundcards. 1) download alsa-driver, alsa-libs, and alsa-utils packages. 2) Unpack the tarballs. Go into the alsa-driver directory. A) Run ./configure --help and figure out what options you want, then run it with those options. For example, ./configure --with-cards=ice1712 --with-sequencer=yes B) do this: make C) su to root, then do this: make install 3) Go into the alsa-libs directory you unpacked. A) ./configure B) make C) su to root, then make install 4) Go into the alsa-utils directory. A) ./configure B) make C) su to root, then make install For an ice1712 chip, you will also want to download the alsa-tools tarball. Unpack that, go into the envy24control directory, and do ./configure make su make install -- paul winkler home: http://www.slinkp.com music: http://www.reacharms.com calendars: http://www.calendargalaxy.com _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
