Hi! I know you would like to have an answer on your second question. Me too ;-) Sorry, can only answer 1 & 3: Leave the aliases out and have a look at your syslog about x-y-z not found at the moment some program tries to load them. That's how i do it. ;^) I log everything to virtual console 12, so it can see it immediately, with the (additional) line in /etc/syslog.conf: *.* /dev/tty12 (actually, to avoid clutter, it reads: *.*;cron.!=info;mark.!debug /dev/tty12) Well, to at least give a little bit to Q 1 & 3, i just had a look at the kernel source & doc (did they CLEAN that 2.4 source tree, man): Documentation/modules.txt, Doc/soudn/introduction at least mention the concept. The definite source to the numbers will be the source - you will have to grep it for them. greetings, martin
