Now I get: sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel WARNING: Could not open '/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/sound/core/snd-page-alloc.ko': No such file or directory WARNING: Could not open '/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/sound/core/snd.ko': No such file or directory WARNING: Could not open '/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/sound/core/snd-timer.ko': No such file or directory WARNING: Could not open '/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/sound/core/snd-pcm.ko': No such file or directory WARNING: Could not open '/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-codec.ko': No such file or directory FATAL: Could not open '/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko': No such file or directory Now what? :) MQ On 15/06/07, Lee Revell <rlrevell@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On 6/14/07, mQ - Martin Quested <martinquested@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Sounds good but I've been rebooting the whole time.
