Hi Dave. Can't say I know anything about using pcmcia, but I just wondered if
you had the option lines set in /etc/modules.conf , and whether this may have
something to do with it.
options card_ID index=0
options card_ID index=1
options card_ID index=2
options snd-pdaudiocf index=3
obviously with the first 3's card ID's changed for your first 3 cards.
I say this because before I had the options set, my usb midi keyboard was
being detected first and registered in /proc/asound/cards , and the actual
soundcard wasn't there. All the best. Nigel.

Greetings:
I've switched my laptop back to Planet C's RH9 and its 2.4.26 kernel.
The machine is much happier now.
However, a problem has come up that did not exist on a former
identical installation: My PDAudioCF card is not recognized when I 'cat
/proc/asound/cards'. lsmod shows this report:
[dlphilp@localhost dlphilp]$ lsmod |grep pdaudio

But catting proc shows only:

I added these lines to /etc/modules.conf :
alias snd-card-3 snd-pdaudiocf
alias sound-slot-3 snd-pdaudiocf
I also tried manually loading snd-pdaudiocf, it seemed to work all
right and reported no error. Nevertheless, no PDAudioCF card appears in
/proc/asound. The card's little blue light is on, indicating that the
card is recognized by the PCMCIA system, but something else is wrong
somewhere. Any suggestions ?
Best,
