If someone compiles it into the kernel, they are saying that they never ever want to change it. That is what modules are for. I doubt strongly that you have it compiled into your kernel. I suspect strongly that it is a module. lsmod lists all of the modules you have loaded. For a module, yes you can replace the module. (in alsa-drivers, just do make install) > > -- William G.
