Keith: I am running Suse 7.2 personal. I have compiled the kernel several times, and each time I have to recompile the alsa modules to go with the new kernel. If you didn't change the sound setup when you installed, then you are likely running alsa modules. Check in /etc/modules.conf to see which you are running. Source code can be downloaded from http://www.alsa-project.org/. It was a snap to compile and no configuration is necessary, since it is already set up in /etc/modules.conf.
I also have a AC97 on board, and I have found the alsa modules better than the kernel modules. If you don't want to do this reinstall every time you update the kernel, you will have to switch to the kernel modules. I hope this helps. -- Marianne Taylor On Monday 03 December 2001 15:55, you wrote: >AC97 on board that works well on all distros but stuffed on a recompile. > >Chang wrote: >> what sound card? >> >> > I can recompile the original kernel and it has no sound no matter if I >> > leave the >> > sound area untouched in the recompile.
