Hey thanks man... I do hear the sound card start up, and I've also noticed that the beep turns down to almost hearable. Still when I try to play a file I get an error from sox regarding a shared library not being found, and I can't find any way to configure the sound drivers already present. I've checked out the alsa howto on the speakup page, but it seems to be for an older alsa package, and I'm pretty sure that having a 2.4.20 kernel I need a newer package. Any help would be welcome. The sound card I'm trying to configure is in a gateway laptop and the kernel detects it as an i810: Intel 440MX found at 0x1900 and at 0x1800irq 10 810_audio: Audio Controller supports two channels. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alex Snow" <alex_snow@xxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Thursday, June 19, 2003 3:45 PM Subject: Re: where to find clean kernel > Hi.
