(cue: 'And there was much rejoicing...'). My modprobe.conf is as follows: # cat /etc/modprobe.conf alias eth0 3c59x alias usb-controller uhci-hcd # ALSA portion alias char-major-116 snd alias snd-card-0 snd-cs4236 options snd-cs4236 isapnp=1 After setting up modprobe.conf correctly I ran # modprobe snd-card-0 Then ran alsamixer to adjust the levels from 0 and muted up to audible. Thanks, and I hope this word for the OP as well. Paul
