Add the following line to "/etc/modules.config": alias sound-slot-0 emu10k1 and then: # /sbin/depmod -ae You need this because your module is named "emu10k1" but the sound system is looking for a module named "sound-slot-0" (this is a computed module name, not an actual name). > 2) I tried for the first time to play a bit with kernel source and I was > trying to lower console_loglevel in order to have all the startup printk's > disappear.

You don't need to mess with that. Just: # echo 5 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk anytime you want. Of course, since Step-1 above fixed your original problem, you won't need to do this at all ;-) ---------------------------------------------+----------------------------- Tommy Reynolds | mailto: Red Hat, Inc., Embedded Development Services | Phone: +1.256.704.9286 307 Wynn Drive NW, Huntsville, AL 35805 USA | FAX: +1.256.837.3839 Senior Software Developer | Mobile: +1.919.641.2923 --=.+/xj,O/EbAy,+p Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAjwDtoEACgkQWEn3bOOMcuryuACdGTYMhbGhzA17yOOGMoRKMelM GxIAoLAUBLXv9WLcPlsgPqDjsBv1VFeW =8on0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=.+/xj,O/EbAy,+p-- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
