https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=208854 ------- Comment #24 from dieter.jurzitza@t-online.de 2007-06-01 12:52 MST ------- Kay, sorry for commenting on a comment: I understood #20. But why the heck does YaST then write a /etc/sysconfig/hardware/hwcfg-static-sound-0 (please note the "static" expression) for the soundcard: hwinfo --sound: 33: ISA(PnP) 01.0: 0401 Multimedia audio controller [Created at isapnp.142] UDI: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pnp_CTL0043 Unique ID: R_Yp.lL9Gp+oo7k0 SysFS ID: /devices/pnp1/01:01/01:01.00 SysFS BusID: 01:01.00 Hardware Class: sound Model: "Creative ViBRA16X" Vendor: CTL "Creative Technology Ltd." Device: eisa 0x00f0 "Creative ViBRA16X" SubVendor: CTL "Creative Technology Ltd." SubDevice: eisa 0x0043 Driver Info #0: Driver Status: snd-sb16 is active Driver Activation Cmd: "modprobe snd-sb16" Config Status: cfg=yes, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown and does write a /etc/sysconfig/hardware/hwcfg-bus-isa-01:02.00 for the network card? Strange enough, the soundcard gives a bunch of aliases with modinfo snd-sb16, but YaST denotes it as "static". And, if I rename it to hwcfg-bus-isa-01:01.00 what would IMHO correspond to the naming convention of the network card, the module of the soundcard is not detected, though according to your arguments it should probably be because it exports aliases? Sometimes it is hard to understand things if you haven't got the appropriate documentation (or you do not know where to look for it :-)) Anyway, thank you for your time, folks!
