Re: [linux-audio-user] usb audio still foobar :-(

Ah yes. RPM or tarball?? The kernel modules are built as modules with the kernel, no RPM, but the libs are installed separately in /usr/lib. I think the tarballs, however, install the libs, etc in /usr/local (you can correct me here), thus the potential for conflict. As to resolutions, here are some ideas. 1. Uninstall the rc5 stuff (is their a make distclean or make uninstall in the ALSA packages?), and install the libs-devel and utils as I suggested before urpmi). In that case, you should only need to edit your modules.conf, which I can help with if you go this route. 2. Uninstall the rc5 stuff and install the latest MDK kernel (2.4.20, in the "cooker") which includes rc5 modules. You can the install the libs-devel and utils as RPM's then, but they will be rc2. 3. Uninstall alsa-libs (urpme libalsa), throw away the old modules (you might tar them up first just to be safe), and reinstall the rc5 libs just to make sure anything that got removed gets put back. The ./snddevices question is another problem. I'm afraid I don't know enough about it to help. Perhaps someone else has an answer... I don't see where you have specified a module for card-0, is this not all of your modules.conf?? # DEVFS STUFF alias /dev/sound sound-slot-0 alias /dev/audio /dev/sound alias /dev/mixer /dev/sound alias /dev/dsp /dev/sound alias /dev/dspW /dev/sound alias /dev/midi /dev/sound We can get to fixing modules.conf depending on what you do. I have not seen the devfs stuff in modules.conf before, though it should be fine there. Usually, an addition is made to /etc/devfsd.conf. This is, again, outlined in the ALSA install readme. However, Mandrake 9 seems to take care of things just fine here without any devfs specifications whatsoever. Let me know how you progress.
