Just a note - if you are using hotplug, you may need to put an entry for your OSS module (that you *don't want loaded) in /etc/hotplug/blacklist . For instance, to use ALSA's "snd_ymfpci" instead of the OSS module "ymfpci", I needed to "echo ymfpci>> /etc/hotplug/blacklist , to prevent the OSS module from loading first. HTH, Robert L
