This looks good. Don't ask me about MIDI stuff though, I seem to have broken that since I last used drvmidi (probably with a 2.0 kernel. No wonder.) > After installing the new kernel and rebooting I ran modprobe -a sound, > that does nothing. Also there is no sound entry under /proc/devices. cat > /dev/sndstat yields nothing also. '-a'? The man page doesn't mention what that option does except in the context of the '-t' option. Try doing an 'lsmod' to make sure the modules are actually being loaded. Right now I've got these sound modules loaded (with an mp3 player going): Module Size Used by sb 36500 1 (autoclean) uart401 6384 1 (autoclean) [sb] sound 63576 0 (autoclean) [sb uart401] soundlow 300 0 (autoclean) [sound] soundcore 3204 6 (autoclean) [sb sound] If nothing's being loaded, do a 'modprobe sb'. If that doesn't do anything, an error message will probably have been printed to /var/log/syslog.
