more info. the "can't find module sound-slot-1" occurs with gnome audio recorder. it
doesn't seem to happen with arecord or rec, but arecord and aplay produces an
input/output error
arecord: pcm_read:1081: read error: Input/output error
aplay: pcm_<something>: read error: Input/output error
at least one of the apps produces a wav file put nothing is recorded in it.
i just read from the sound howto and it says
1. If you can, try to test sound card recording under MS-DOS to determine
if there is a hardware problem
how do i do this?
2. Sometimes a different DMA channel is used for recording than for
playback. In this case the most probable reason is that the
recording DMA is set up incorrectly.
in modules.conf i put at the very end (in order to make ogle play well)
options ide-cd dma=1
did this mess up the record? should i take it out? put it in first?
should i configure the sound card with pnp?
i read that rc7 is buggy so i tried to install rc6. the utils did not
configure because it could not find libasound... i read that the
$prefix variable used in the lib configure and the utils configure
need to be the same, but both are assigned NONE.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

It seems like you need to set some module aliases. Look through your
docs again. I've got this:
alias snd-card-0 snd-card-es18xx
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
in my /etc/modutils/aliases file (the location for your distro may differ)

I believe it is precisely these aliases that are responsible for
any such mapping.
