Stephen, I was using Alsa 0.5, but now I'm using 0.9 and my sound still works (at least that's good). The joystick still gives me trouble. Your command line below gives this output:
[goby: /home/erik] root $ amixer cset iface=CARD,name='Joystick Enable' 1 numid=2,iface=CARD,name='Joystick Enable' ; type=BOOLEAN,access=rw---,values=1 : values=on So, that looks alright. [goby: /home/erik] root $ modprobe ns558 /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/char/joystick/ns558.o: init_module: No such device Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/char/joystick/ns558.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/char/joystick/ns558.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/char/joystick/ns558.o: insmod ns558 failed Loading the joystick module still fails. Thanks for your help so far. Erik.
