Hi, while trying to add a USB sound card (sound card driver: USB Audio; sound card model: USB Audio, Generic), the follwoing error message occures "The kernel model snd-usb-audio for sound support could not be loaded." How could I properly install a USB sound card on Suse 9.2? Any ideas? Thanks, Sam

The USB sound card should be available just by plugging it in. There is no need to add it using YaST. Use lsmod to see if the modules were loaded. Which model do you have? I have the Creative MP3+ I have been using a USB sound card for over a year and did not see good support until 9.3. In 9.2 it was very flakey at best and would stop working for no reason. Sometimes just unplugging/plugging would get it to work again. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge
Thanks! Although I've now maneged to add the sound card and sound driver, there is still not sound. Unplugging and plugging it in again doesn't help either. I had sound running on a previous system (suse 9.2) with the same usb card. So far as I remember I had to change some settings relating to *hotpluging* or module loading. But I don't know excactly which settings. Any ideas? Greatly appreciated! Sam On Mon, 30 May 2005 09:37:12 -0400 Ken Schneider wrote:

Adding snd-usb-audio to /etc/hotplug/blacklist did the trick. On Mon, 30 May 2005 15:57:40 +0100 Sam Lewis wrote:
