Greetings. Ever since I upgraded to the new kernel, 2.2.19-4 (?) , whatever 
was available on the MandrakeUpdate, I lost the sound support on the
Thinkpad A20m. I also lost the modem support, but managed to get that back :)

Kernel RPM installation went fine, as outlined by that 'security' web page of
Mandrake, but still sound is lost. I since uninstalled alsa drivers with rpm 
-e, and installed the newer tarball. I still have no sound, meaning things
complaining about "cannot open /dev/dsp" 

lsmod shows:

./proc/asound/cards says 'there are no soundcards'

if I do a alsasound restart , this is what I get:
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/alsasound restart
Shutting down sound driver: /usr/sbin/alsactl: error in loading shared 
libraries: libasound.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or 
directory
snd: Device or resource busy
done
ALSA driver is already running.

Any ideas?  Thanks, -turgut
