Maybe someone else can answer more authoritatively, but I seem to recall
reading somewhere that it can't be done. You have to use a key on the

Can you provide a direct pointer, please? Preferrably to a patch that
you have tested you
thanks. that fixes that. i've also fixed alsa and oss simulation the
same way. adding the lines to /etc/modules seems like a poor fix though.
why isn't it automatically loaded like it was in previous
kernel versions?
my /etc/modules now looks like this and gives me working sound and

Thanks.. kernel-image-2.6.6-powerpc worked great!.. and guess what.. the
