Strange I'm sure they were missing last time I looked, however now the symlinks are present.
I have; dsp > /dev/sound/dsp mixer > /dev/sound/mixer sequencer > /dev/sound/sequencer sequencer1 > /dev/sound/sequencer1 One thing I noticed during playing around with modules.conf is that the module pre-installed on the system is; /lib/modules/2.4.18-6mdk/alsa/snd-card-via8233.o.gz And the new VIA 1.14 module I installed recently is at; /lib/modules/2.4.18-6mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/viaudio.o I'm guessing but I think that the kernel looks in both paths for modules? Just in case I guessed wrong I copied snd-card-via8233.o.gz to the same path as viaudio.o Now when I specify snd-card-via8233.0.gz in modules.conf I still get no audio other than CD-Audio.....but.... In Sound Mixer it lists the module as "Avance Logic AL C200/200P", checked the mobo and it's got a Avance Logic ALC201A chip. So I'm going to try Realtek's driver and cross my fingers :) Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Derek Jennings" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 4:15 PM Subject: Re: [newbie] VIA 8233A Audio Problem on MDK 8.2 > > >SNIP > > This is a step forward from before, were I constantly had module errors > > and-or missing /dev/dsp error on the sound server start/restart.
