First find out where exactly mandrake has put the alsa modules. Then remove them. Now make sure you have a /lib/modules/2.4.x/kernel If you do then install the alsa packages And do a rmmod alsa-modules modprobe snd-card; modprobe snd-mixer-oss,modprobe snd-pcm-oss; modprobe snd-seq-oss Now you definitely know that other modules can't be conflicting. If the sound is okay after doing this then next time you reboot you will know if it is boot scripts that are causing you alsa troubles or not. Then if they do just take out the offending lines. Although I've had no troubles for a while by just ignoring them until I find out what they mean :) -- Patrick Shirkey - Boost Hardware Ltd.
