I have a PCI sound card using this chipset. I'm running a 2.4.20 kernel with the following settings and it's working nicely: CONFIG_SOUND=y CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI=y # CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI_FM is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI_MIDI is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI_JOYSTICK is not set CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI_CM8738=y # CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI_SPDIFINVERSE is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI_SPDIFLOOP is not set CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI_SPEAKERS=2 I don't have 2.4.18 source handy to compare, but I see that CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI is in 2.4.19. If you have the stock kernel, look in /lib/modules/2.4.19-?/kernel/drivers/sound for the cm modules. If it's not there, you'll have to compile. jc -- Jeff Coppock Systems Engineer Diggin' Debian Admin and User -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
