hi again,
here are some revised details of my problem!
i am actually running the planetccrma kernel 2.4.20-18.1.caps
when running alsaconf i get:
[root@localhost robcanning]# /usr/sbin/alsaconf
/usr/sbin/alsaconf: line 120: modinfo: command not found
/usr/sbin/alsaconf: line 127: modinfo: command not found
/usr/sbin/alsaconf: line 135: modinfo: command not found
then it finds:
hdsp Xilinx Corporation RME Hammerfall DSP (rev 32) │ │
│ │ intel8x0 Intel Corp. 82801EB AC'97 Audio (rev
02) │ │
│ │ legacy Probe legacy ISA (non-PnP) chips
then it configures snd-hdsp and runs alsasound start at which point
things go wrong:
Loading driver...
Starting sound driver: snd-hdsp
/lib/modules/2.4.20-18.1.caps/kernel/sound/snd-hdsp.o: init_module: No
such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
/lib/modules/2.4.20-18.1.caps/kernel/sound/snd-hdsp.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.20-18.1.caps/kernel/sound/snd-hdsp.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.20-18.1.caps/kernel/sound/snd-hdsp.o: insmod snd-hdsp
failed
done
Setting default volumes...
===============================================================================
Now ALSA is ready to use.
For adjustment of volumes, use your favorite mixer.
Have a lot of fun!

which is then repeated a number of times
