It's not a clean solution but it works. You have to see where the modules are loading to make it neat. Is it hotplug, is it the alsa start up script, what have you. Whether it's 2.4 or 2.6 kernel makes a difference in how that happens and where the config info is pulled from as well. > I suppose it's a debian bug. probably modprobe.conf is not setup in such > a way that it is loaded automatically.. I'd have to check details but it's more like you have to specify that you want the sequencer option when you set up alsa. Not talking about the compile time option, which would mess one up on a source built ALSA, but the module params. > > So either setup modprobe.conf to load it or maybe use modconf to do it.. > I'm sure you'll find a way after studying the debian user manual ;) > /etc/modules I > flo
