I think my confusion set in after I first initially recompiled my kernel to 2.4.18. While running "make xconfig" and in the "Sound" section, I only compiled in "sound support" and "emu10k1" - I didn't select them as modules. After not being able to get sound. I started reading docs. All the docs I read showed devices loaded as modules. So I recompiled my kernel to load "sound support" and "emu10k1" as modules. This way I could follow the docs step by step. When I ran lsmod I saw:
Module Size Used by
emu10k1 50820 0
ac97_codec 9448 0 [emu10k1]
That's it. After reading your response to my email, I recompiled my kernel loading "sound support - soundcore.o" , "emu10k1 - emu10k1.o", and "OSS - sound.o" as modules. Now when I run lsmod I see:
Module Size Used by
emu10k1 50820 0
sound 52760 0 (unused)
soundcore 3300 6 [emu10k1 sound]
ac97_codec 9448 0 [emu10k1]
>From my lsmod output, I notice the "sound" module is (unused). Your lsmod output has "sound" being used by (emu10k1)? I haven't gotten into configuring /etc/modules yet nor using modprobe emu10k1 because I'm still trying to test. I've been loading the devices manually via "insmod". And then running the test "cat endoftheworld >/dev/dsp" I downloaded the "endoftheworld" sound file through a link on the linuxdoc.org Sound-howto.
With these changes I still have no sound?
I'm running enlightenment as my WM, and realized audio was disabled. I enabled audio and logged off/on. I received a message stating; not verbatum, "Could not connect to sound server". I checked which services were running on my system and esd is not. I have to read more and get esd started.
Just curious? Do you have an ISA PnP or a PCI card. I have a PCI.
