Thanks to all who replied. It's still not working. Here is a re-cap
and what I've tried:
Sound was lost after upgrading from RH6.1 to RH7.0. Kernel *was*
upgraded to 2.2.16-22 at that time. Modutils were also upgraded
(2.3.21-1).
conf.modules was renamed to modules.conf. Other modules listed in this
file are loading, but not sound. During boot, I get the errors:
>> modprobe: Can't locate module cs4232
>> rc.sysinit: Loading sound module (cs4232): failed
>>
>> modprobe: Can't locate module opl3
>> rc.sysinit: Loading midi module (opl3): failed
When I run sndconfig, it complains:
>> "You don't seem to be running a kernel with modular sound enabled.
>> (soundcore.o was not found in the module search path)."
soundcore.o *is* located /lib/modules/2.2.16-22/misc/. (Thanks to Larry
Grover for suggesting I check that.) cs4232.o and op13.o are also in
this directory. Which begs the question, why isn't modprobe locating
these modules on bootup? (It *is* locating and loading the modules for
my scsi and ethernet cards, which are located in
/lib/modules/2.2.16-22/scsi and .../net, respectively.)
I'm at a loss. Any ideas what else I might try? Oh- one more thing:
how to tell definitively which kernel is running? The reason I ask, >>
cat /etc/issue returns:
Red Hat Linux release 7.0 (Guinness)
Kernel 2.2.12-20 on an i586
(new Red Hat, but old kernel)
likewise, >> uname -r says: 2.2.12-20
However, >> rpm -q kernel says: kernel-2.2.16-22
and lilo.conf is definitely pointing to the new image:
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=linux
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.16-22.img
So I *am* running the new kernel, right? Sorry this is so long. TIA,
Joe
