You are right, they did not rebuild correctly. I didn't check with depmod as you suggest and failed to note the messages when rebooting. > > The workaround was to rename /usr/src/linux-2.4.20-18.9/include/linux/workqueue.h > to workqueue.h_orig.

I was unable to make these alsa RPM's work on the 4600c hardware even though your suggestion does allow them to build without errors. Specifically the drivers I have tried are: freshrpm's.net alsa-driver-0.9.4-fr2.src.rpm alsa-lib-0.9.4-fr1.src.rpm alsa-utils-0.9.4-fr1.src.rpm Intel web site alsa_driver_0.9.1adi_rev5.tar.gz alsa_driver_0.9.3a.tar Anyone else have suggestions?
