That's right.

I was wondering about that, as most of the documentation I've read is
very module-oriented.

Oh yes, forgot about that.  The relevant lines appear to be:
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 0.9.7 (Thu Sep 25
19:16:36 2003 UTC). request_module: failed /sbin/modprobe -- snd-card-0.
error = -16 PCI: Found IRQ 10 for device 0000:00:0b.0
PCI: Sharing IRQ 10 with 0000:00:01.3
PCI: Sharing IRQ 10 with 0000:00:01.2
ALSA device list:
  #0: Dummy 1
  #1: Virtual MIDI Card 1
  #2: Sound Blaster Live! (rev.8) at 0xdf00, irq 10

The second line of that is suspicious to me -- why would it be running
modprobe for a module that doesn't exist?

Thanks,
Dave.
