This are from the module-init-tools, not from modutils anymore. > I can se at startup and 'dmesg' that the kernel identifies the card.

The sbawe driver has isapnp options itself: <http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Creative+Labs&card=Soundblaster+Awe64+Gold&chip=EMU8K&module=sbawe> When I set up my AWE64 (on 2.4), I pretty much followed that guide, and renamed /etc/modules.conf to modprobe.conf for 2.6. > sound# /etc/init.d/alsa start > Starting ALSA (version 0.9.7): sbawe-failed mpu401-failed opl3sa2-failed > failed I don't know what that script does. I used the alsasound script that came with the alsa driver sources. -Joe ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
