Paul, thanks for the tips... Hey if 0.5.12a is Ancient, why does www.alsa-project.org list it on the front page by the tittle "Stable" ? I am using in ONLY because of this. Should I be using the "Development" download? ( 0.9.0rc1 )I don't want an Unstable driver. Please let me know, because I am a LAN administrator deploying 15 Linux workstations and 5 Linux Servers on Dell hardware in the middle of a Windows 2000 Corporate Enviroment with more than 3,000 machines. I need to do this right the 1st time. I have just gotten the 0.5.12a working and was planning to deploy this driver throughout the 20 computers I oversee. Should I back up and test the 0.9.0rc1?

Do you have a directory called /etc/modutils/ ? If so, add a file called "alsa" in that directory, put your config stuff in it, and then run update-modules which will combine everything from /etc/modutils/ and put it into /etc/modules.conf. Keep in mind that the above is true for Debian unstable and I don't know if RedHat uses the same system or something else. -- Paul Winkler home: http://www.slinkp.com "Muppet Labs, where the future is made - today!" _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes?
