I've tried to get Alsa running on other Linuxes before on a laptop, and never with success, despite help from the Alsa mailing list.
Therefore, I'm not completely surprised that Alsa is giving me problems on the desktop. The problem I've run acorss: I've emerged alsa and alsa-utils. I've edited files per the instructions. Now it's time for me to run "modules-update", or "update-modules", depending on which set of directions I follow. (The ones that appear in the manual, or the ones that appear when I install alsa-utils.) My results (Regardless of which I choose to run): depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.24/kernel/drivers/media/radio/miropcm20.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.24/kernel/drivers/net/wan/comx.o. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/modules.d# I checked both of those files, and ther are *blank*. So there shouldn't be any unresolved symbols.. Unless I'm missing something, which is always a possibility... Any thoughts, comments, or suggestions? Krikket -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
