Hi there, I am having problems with my soundcard. I currently have a PCI Soundblaster 128 sound card. According to the manufacture (and others) that it will work with Linux Mandrake 7.0. I did run the program (in super user mode) called sndconfig and it does it's check and it says it is (in a box) Model: Ensonic|unknown device 1274: 5880 Then on the next screen it says it is NOT supported. I then did a #sndconfig --noprobe I then select Ensonic AudioPCI (Soundblaster 64/128 PCI) then I get this error message: The following error occured running the modprobe program: /lib/modules/2.2.14-mdklinux /misc/es1370.o: init_module: Device or resource busy Then when I restart my system it gives me the same error message with [FAILED] in nice red letters. Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do? If it means getting another sound card, I will accept that option, but as a LAST RESORT. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Another problem: Recently I tried to run Netscape through and it won't load up any pages. This only happens during when I am under my name of richard for my login, right now I am typing this message in Netscape using the root directory login and I have no problem. I can always create a new login name and delete the old one if that is all I have to do, no biggie. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh yeah, one more problem is that my scanner is recognized by Linux (SCSI) but it doesn't know what it is. It comes up with garbage for the type, it is plugged in AFTER my zipdrive. My zipdrive I have no problems with what so ever. It says my zipdrive is direct access while the scanner as sequential access. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for any and all help with these three problems, I would greatly appreciate any help. NOTE: FOr the soundcard, I did a complete re-install on my system (including formatting the drive. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Richard Wegner ===== ============================================================ Richard Wegner - Linux Newbie - [EMAIL PROTECTED] NOTE: Derek Rayne is a FICTIONAL CHARACTER this is just an e-mail address I chose! ============================================================ __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
