I steered you wrong. I'm sorry. Try this: grep -i emu10k [config.filename] If that comes back with "yes" or "m", then your kernel comes with the OSS drivers, not ALSA, which would be expected in 2.4 kernels. There was never a config option for alsa in the kernel. I was wrong. Next, I suppose the question is do you care? Is the goal to have sound, or specifically to have alsa sound?
