When I used sndconfig (LM7.1), it added these lines to /etc/conf.modules alias sound-slot-0 via82cxxx options sb support=1 The PCI probe found ... model: VIA Technologies | VT82cxxx [Apolo Super AC97/Audio] However, sndconfig hangs up the server while testing a sound file. I have to do a hard-boot reboot to get the machine back up. But then the server locks up upon bootup when it tries to load the sound driver inside conf.modules I can hard-boot again and remove the driver to fix it. I did find /lib/modules/2.2.16-9mdksecure/misc/via82cxxx.o but how do I use it since sounddrake gives no options for VIA Tech ? When I used sounddrake, it added these lines to /etc/conf.modules for generic sound, irq 7 (same thing for 5)... alias sound sb options sb io=0x220 irq=7 dma=0 sounddrake gives: error in modprobe call ! /lib/modules/2.2.16-9mdksecure/misc/sb.o: init_module: Device or resource busy /lib/modules/2.2.16-9mdksecure/misc/sb.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.2.16-9mdksecure/misc/sb.o failed sh: -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `/lib/modules/2.2.16-9mdksecure/fs/(¿' sh: -c: line 1: `/bin/echo /lib/modules/2.2.16-9mdksecure/fs/(¿&.o' sh: -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `/lib/modules/2.2.16-9mdksecure/net/(¿' sh: -c: line 1: `/bin/echo /lib/modules/2.2.16-9mdksecure/net/(¿&.o' For SB 16(a or b) sound, irq 7 (same thing for 5)... alias sound sb options sb io=0x220 irq=7 dma=0 dma16=0 mpu_io=0x330 Same error message as above. Which driver do I use for this sound card ? What settings ? Other recommendations ? Thanks... Dan.
