Hi

VERSION (rsync sunsite.no)
Linux-Mandrake Cooker-i586 20010311 20:15
/ChangeLog/1.451/Fri Mar  9 02:21:48 2001//

Installation went nice. 

Bootdisk: ( I have a hard disk like; swap, boot, /, /home
                                reiser=/
                                other partitions.
I used grub, without using the boot partition, that is I opted for the 
bootloader to be installed on /dev/fd0, went nice and booted fine.

After having added ALL:ALL to hosts.deny I tried to initiate my soundcard and 
was met by when running sndconfig:
'You don't seem to be running a kernel with modular sound enabled 
(soundcore.o was not found in the module search path) &c.

[guran@Archimedes guran]$ locate soundcore
/lib/modules/2.4.2-10mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/soundcore.o.gz

>From dmesg:

Do I really need the fine sndconfig when it seems to be correctly detected?

Still no LyX or Klyx loaded or xfig .
