It looks like your ALSA tree was compiled against kernel headers that don't match the installed kernel. If you have any experience at all, one way to fix this is to: 1) Download kernel 2.4.21 tarball from kernel.org 2) Unpack it somewhere 3) Link /usr/src/linux to where you unpacked it 4) Find the old kernel config from RedHat, typically in /boot/config-* 5) Move it to the base directory of the kernel tree as .config 6) make oldconfig 7) make dep && make bzImage && make modules && make modules_install 8) take arch/i386/boot/bzImage and move it to /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.21 or something similar 9) take System.map from the base dir and move it to /boot/System.map-2.4.21 (matching the previously named one) 10) Make sure lilo points to this kernel and run /sbin/lilo 11) reboot 12) start with a clean alsa, rebuild it 13) Hopefuly, problem solved Only do these things if you know what you are doing though, I don't want to help you break your system. :) -- Ryan Underwood, <nemesis at icequake.net>, icq=10317253 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Parasoft Error proof Web apps, automate testing & more.
