These symbols are exported from the sound-core-module, which you have to load. Do a "depmod -a" as root to update your modules-dependency files. Then load your driver again with "modprobe usbua100". This should load all required drivers. If not, you have to list all dependencies of usbua100 explicitly in /etc/modules.conf (man modules.conf). > I'm a bit stumped here because I don't understand how the .o file can be > prduced if there are un-resolved sysmbols. An Object file is produced by the assembler, not the linker. If you link a prog, the linker puts together the o-files if he can resolve all symbols; in case of a kernel-module insmod/modprobe look if all symbols are resolved. > I also notice I have no audio facilites listed in the Mandrake Control > Centre.
