First of all, thanks to the people who responded to my question about Zip Drives. I appreciate the help. Now then: I'm planning to add a sound card as well, since the on-board sound that came with my Asus V7 mobo doesn't work under LM7.2 -- either in native mode or SoundBlaster emulation mode.

Yeah, if you tried "make" while su'd to root, then it probably isn't installed. Find it on the mdk CD (so you know where to look). Open kpackage, let it go through it's search for programs, then, the easy way is just to click the "open" tab and search for it in /mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS. Cl

You don't have to copy it over. In a terminal, cd /to/where/you/want/it/unzipped then tar -zxvf /mnt/floppy/au88xx-1.0.5.tar.gz Then cd au88xx-1.0.5 then cat INSTALL and cat README (use: ls to give you list of files). That will probably tell you to use the commands: ./configure
