Should not be necessary if the card is plug and play and the BIOS is set for a Plug And Play OS (My Asus motherboard BIOS setups have such a flag.) Check your BIOS for such a selection on whatever screens it has and see if it is set ON/YES/?? to active the feature. That will make sure the card gets allocated all the needed resources by the BIOS at hard boot time. Check the messages file after boot and see if Kudzu or the kernel is dumping the IRQ/address information for the card into the debug output, that will hopefully let you know if the hardware layer is being properly setup. There might be a command (under kudzu) for dumping out hardware details as well - a sort of Windows Device Manager looksee. Your error messages seem to indicate moreover that a software driver is not available on the harddrive for the card. Check on Creative's web site for Linux drivers for your revision of the OS. You can also look on sourceforge. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
