I've updated my kernel from an old 2.4.20 kernel originally installed by Knoppix 3.2 to the 2.6.12-1-686 debian kernel installed by synaptic (debian testing) and adjusting lilo.conf by hand. Now my sound no longer works (/dev/dsp can't be opened). Using modconf on both kernels I see the same modules switched on: soundcore, sound, uart401, and ad1848. The 2.4 kernel also uses cs4232. With the 2.6 kernel, I can't switch this on: first there is a window asking for "Kommandozeilen Argumente", and then, having no idea what to put in there, an error message saying that the module can't be activated.
I suppose this could be the error, as the sound card is an onboard Crystal CS4232. I know a bit about Linux but almost nothing about kernels, having only once before replaced one (and found this difficult) and never compiled one, so I'm a kernel newbie. Much of the documentation on kernels is above my head. Can somebody tell me in simple terms what I might do: How to install the driver cs4232? Is it perhaps missing in the new kernel? Find a newer kernel which does have this? By the way, the reason I updated kernels at all was that the old one could not mount USB devices with pmount.
