I'm running Slackware 11.0 with my own 2.6.18.1 kernel. When booting my pc and trying to play music with xmms, I get the message "the sound device is busy". I have to manually load the modules snd-mixer-oss, snd-seq-oss and snd-pcm-oss to make my sound work. When running alsaconf I get "No supported PnP or PCI card found." Following information might be useful: bash-3.1$ /usr/pkg/sbin/lspci | grep audio 00:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: nVidia Corporation nForce MultiMedia audio [Via VT82C686B] (rev a1) When I configured the kernel, the ALSA -> PCI devices -> "Intel/SiS/nVidia/AMD/ALi AC97 Controller" entry is marked as a module. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
