I finally got nForce2 audio working RELIABLY with that same kernel. With 2.4.20-gentoo-r6, it was hit-or-miss. With this current kernel, 1) enable CONFIG_SOUND_ICH=m (this is the one labeled "Intel ICH (i8xx), SiS 7012, NVidia nForce Audio or AMD 768/811x" with whatever method you use to configure your kernel and 2) apply the nforce-audio kernel patch (emerge -k nforce-audio). Finally, add "nvaudio" to your /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-XX file, cross your fingers, and reboot. Hall -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
