How can I get that driver and how can I install
it?
Hope to get answer from you guys as soon a

If you get sound as root(during sndconfig) but not as user(playing audio

I did that same thing on a 6.0 installif you're on a network you're

at boot time type linux 3 and it will boot to a command prompt.
Or after boot, if you do a ctrl, alt, f1 you will get a console window that
you can log onto and fix x windows. (you may have to do a ctrl z and then
