I've got a bit of time so I went and grabbed Alsa. Compiled and installed it. I also grabbed the alsa.rpm from the ftp.suse.com site which contained alsaconf. Now I think I've got everything setup right but all I get is Loading driver: Starting sound driver: snd-card-ens1370 /lib/modules/2.2.14/misc/snd-card-ens1370.o: init_module: Device or resource busy /lib/modules/2.2.14/misc/snd-card-ens1370.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.2.14/misc/snd-card-ens1370.o failed /lib/modules/2.2.14/misc/snd-card-ens1370.o: insmod snd-card-ens1370 failed Am I missing something simple??

Here's my ALSA setup in modules.conf. It's for an ens1371, not an ens1370, but otherwise the same. Here are a couple of thoughts: (1) Do you have an old sound driver module loaded (/sbin/lsmod will tell you). The es1370 module should NOT be loaded with ALSA. (2) Did you comment out the original sound config stuff in rc.config? (3) Could your sound card be using a non-standard interrupt? I do a cat /proc/interrupts and find that my ens1371 is at interrupt 17.

Here is a simple script to unload the (alsa) sound modules. #!/bin/sh cat /proc/modules | gawk '/^snd-/{print $1}' | xargs -i rmmod {} rmmod snd rmmod soundcore Iwan. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

Spent some more time today on it. I took a flyer and configured two cards. Well I still didn't get sound but I got the drivers to load. Progress. Spent some time searching the net and found a reference on a SuSE ftp site that alsaconf hasn't been updated to work with 0.5 Alsa. Since I'm trying to get 0.56 to work I figured that included me so I went and edited the modules.conf file by hand. Changed a few things according to the readme. Changed a few others after I reread your note and hit my self with a clue stick. Well it loads fine now. But I'm still not getting any sound-( I'm going to spend some time with the ALSA troubleshooting stuff and see if I can figure this out.

You have noticed that ALSA mutes all channels on load? Start alsamixer,
unmute the channels and set levels as you please. After having quit
alsamixer, run 'alsactl store'. Next time /sbin/init.d/alsasound is called,
it will automatically set levels by calling alsactl.
