The command modprobe <foo> loads the kernel module <foo>
Can you do an experiment for me, it should fix your sound problem or at
least give me a clearer understanding of what is causing it.
Be sure that your /etc/modules.config still list Only
probeall scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi
probeall usb-interface usb-uhci
alias net-pf-4 ipx
alias autofs autofs4
Launch drakxservises ( # drakxservises )
Find the listing for 'harddrake' and 'uncheck' the box for 'on boot'
Reboot your system.
Check your /etc/modules.config, it should still list only
probeall scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi
probeall usb-interface usb-uhci
alias net-pf-4 ipx
alias autofs autofs4
Run draksound ( # draksound )
Select the via8233 driver and press OK
Check your /etc/modules.config, again.
It should now include the snd module
'alias sound-slot-0 snd-via8233'
If so, test to see if you have system sound, can play a cd, etc.
If you do then we have found the solution, if not they we will start
back from scratch.
