If you have sound driver kernel modules loaded before starting > s-c-s, that likely causes problems or confuses it. modprobe.conf is now: # Note: for use under 2.4, changes must also be made to modules.conf! alias usb-controller ohci-hcd alias ieee1394-controller ohci1394 options ne irq=10 alias eth0 nvnet alias usb-interface usb-ohci alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0 After booting I get no sound. If I run system-config-soundcard I then get sound (although no changes to /etc/modprobe.conf). If I then reboot, I get no sound again. I'm losing the configuration somewhere. I've removed the nvsound module (modinfo nvsound now says no such module or somesuch) but notice that the system-config-soundcard still remembers that nvsound was there at some point - oddly when I play the test sound button on the tab for this module it still works!!! -- nick
