That is what i meant i was using : )

I have a Cmedia soundcard. (its cheap and naff but it gets the job done)



Oh and whilst im mailing the list, my kernel compiling fails everytime.
Complains about undefined symbols.

Ingos patch didnt apply very well.
Am i meant to use the latest version or subversion kernel from kernel.org?
(i mean like 2.6.16 or 2.6.16.16?)
