<P>I hope this isn't a stupid question, but I'm fairly inexperienced with both linux and the ALSA driver. I believe I followed the instructions closely for building and installing the driver, libs, and utilities for ALSA; I have a PnP soundblaster 32 (AWE) card (not isa), and selected the sbawe name for the card from the table at <A href="http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/">www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/</A> . Everything seemed to be going okay, until I got to doing the modprobe to install the module in the kernel.</P>
<P>When I issued the "modprobe snd-sbawe" command, I got a failure. Since modprobe has a "-d" option, I have included it's output below, in case that yields a clue. I see that the insmod portion of the command failed, so I also issued that at top level, so you could all see the way that fails - issued by itself, it finds unresolved symbols - but I don't know if that is the way it failed inside modprobe. BTW, the "modprobe snd-seq-oss" failed with "device busy" - the other two modprobes seemed to succeed.</P>
<P>Can anyone tell me what I need to do?</P>
<P>Thanks in advance,</P>
