If the new kernel is symlinkes to /vmlinuz, add a line initrd=/initrd.img to the Linux section of your lilo.conf and run lilo.

alsaconf cannot find my es1371
sarge, 2.2.20 kernel insmod es1371 works fine and I can play sound no problem. For some time I have been struggling to get sound recording to work. This was part of my reason to upgrade from woody to sarge. So, I thought I'd try alssa. apt-get install alsa no errors but alsaconf does not detect the es1371. :-( Joe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

That's the OSS driver. For some time I have been struggling to get sound recording to work. This was part of my reason to upgrade from woody to sarge. So, I thought I'd try alssa. apt-get install alsa no errors That installed the alsa-base package. You still need the alsa-modules (that you need to compile yourself, e.g. using module-assistant), and you probably also want to install alsa-oss (for OSS compatibility) and alsa-utils (includes alsamixer, by default your card is mute). but alsaconf does not detect the es1371. Because you are missing the alsa-modules or your card is blocked by the OSS driver I think. The easiest way to get ALSA working is probably to install some 2.6.8-2 kernel image (already includes alsa modules) and hotplug, or some 2.4.27 kernel image, the matching alsa-modules-2.4.27 package, and discover. hotplug and/or discover will load the drivers when you boot, all you need to do is to make sure that the OSS es1372 driver is not in your /etc/modules. best regards Andreas Janssen -- Andreas Janssen [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP-Key-ID: 0xDC801674 ICQ #17079270 Registered Linux User #267976 http://www.andreas-janssen.de/debian-tipps-sarge.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
