The Documentation/* says that modules will > be built woth .ko extention (for kernel object.) Which soundcard are you using? Did it have native support in the 2.4 kernel or did you have to use ALSA? If you didn't have to use alsa, then its likely that you will have to install the alsa utilities. For redhat 9 you can download the RPM's at http://www.freshrpms.net/ Also, why have you compiled support for so many sound cards? Do you actually have that many? If not then just choose the driver for the one you have and try compiling it into the kernel image. That way there will be no need to go looking for a module. - Apurva -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
