Thank you Igor.  I've been running Linux exclusively for two years, and for 
firewall for 4, and have never heard of this.  But I'll compile Alsa sources.  

Is it necessary to have Arts turned on as well? (KControl)  
WTF is Arts, and how does it relate to Alsa?

I've only been able to find Suse's 2.4.18 kernel.  Are you using an official 
Suse 2.4.19?  Where is it in the tree?

Any idea what's wrong with the TILynx 1394 module? (below)  My brother says it 
appears to be missing a .h file.

Is your KAlarm working?  Mine never alarms.
