They're not, but the way the system decides which ones to load and when does vary from one distro to another. > I was just looking for a little help... maybe someone that uses > Slackware. I don't use Slack 10 but I used to use Slack 7 (my system has gradually morphed since then into a completely home-brew variety, albeit using the delightfully unpretentious, you-asked-for-it-you-got-it, Slackware package manager). If things haven't changed too much (and my memory hasn't gone too soft under the influence of strong German Bier), the system may load modules from /etc/rc.d/rc.modules so that's one place to look for emu10k1.o being inserted. Or you could edit /etc/modules.conf and add a like like: alias emu10k1 off then run depmod. Alternatively, you could probably try: alias emu10k1 snd-emu10k1 to make modprobe substitute the ALSA driver for the OSS one, but that seems very hacky, in a distasteful sort of way, to me. An alternative way of stopping emu10k1.o from being loaded would be to delete it (or rename it to something like emu10k1.o.xxx if you're feeling timid) then run depmod. If modules are being loaded by hotplug, that may well make everything Just Work as it will, hopefully, decide that snd-emu10k1.o is now the correct driver for the detected sound device. Hope this helps a bit.
