OK. I checked my kernel config again and it did have the snd-intel8x0 driver built as a module, but not the snd-intel8x0m. I rebuilt the kernel with the snd-intel8x0m module and rebooted. It modprobes successfully. I emerged slmodem successfully this time (I don't know if I still need it.) I made the suggested entry in /etc/modules.d/alsa and ran modules-update. What's the next step? Someone said that I should try to get a dial tone at this point; how do I do that? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
