you mean put snd-intel8x0 index=0 into /etc/modules? I didn't know that any arguments was possible in this file, so that is why I sound so confused maybe. Let me say right now, I just solved the arts sound problem as well. I simply reset the arts settings to the standard values and rebooted artsd. I have system sounds up now. This means everything works ok for me now. If I need the usb sound device, once in a while, I can modprobe it manually. > Using index options in /etc/modprobe.d/sound would be the better > solution, as udevd/hotplugd read these files AFAIK. I don't have this file /etc/modprobe.d/sound. Should I create it myself? I don't like creating new configuration files in /etc.. What is the format of this file? Here is a directory listing of /etc/modprobe.d aliases arch display_class nvidia-kernel-nkc alsa-base arch-aliases libsane pnp-hotplug alsa-base-blacklist blacklist linux-sound-base_noOSS Anyway, since I have it up and running now, I probably don't want to tinker with it any futher. > > Anyway putting the other modules in /etc/hotplug/blacklist.d _almost_ > > did the trick.

When I blacklist the the modem and cam, the SI7012 becomes card 0, but it is not marked as default. I don't know if that's an error or because it is the only one, and therefore implicitly the default card.

If the soundcard's alsa is able to NOOO!! :) I would never use artsd for anything other than system sounds.. It is insanely laggy and generally unstable. I gave up trying to use arts a long time ago. Arts bad. Direct to alsa good. Thanks for all the help. Anders -- - Debian GNU/Linux - KDE 3.5.1 - KMail 1.9.1 - -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
