lsmod tells you all the modules currently installed in your kernel. What distro are you using? If something needs x-windows to work, and you intend to use speakup, get rid of it and find something which isn't x-windows dependent. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kenneth Lee" <klee15@xxxxxxx> To: "Speakup is a screen review system for Linux." <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Sunday, November 28, 2004 12:39 PM Subject: System-config-soundcard Hello all, I'm trying to configure my soundcard and I'm not having much luck. The system is a Dell GX1 running Fedora FC2 and the audio adaptor is a built-in Crystal brand. I googled the speakup archives and read all the msgs related to soundcards. Everything I read suggested using sndconfig, so I had to find it on the web and install it. I used rpm to install and got a warning (which I already forgot), but the program is there and runs. When I run sndconfig it reports that I have no sound mmodules installed in the kernal. Well I don't know anything about that or how to find out what modules are installed nor how to install others. Later I found a utility called "system.config-soundcard" but when I ran it it said I need to run in an X window or set my DISPLAY variable. So I set my DISPLAY variable to "export DISPLAY=localhost:0" and now system-config-soundcard just says I need to be running an X server. I feel like I'm in an infinite loop! <g> Thanks for any help Ken -N5SWR -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
