I have installed Fedora Core 3. 2.6.9-1.667 According to the documentation it has ALSA in the kernel. How do I configure it and set it to use my Opti hardware? What do I put in init.d or rc.d to start it up and shut it down? What is the correct <alsa-driver> What is the correct <opti-name> See below... ============================== The results of; /sbin/modinfo soundcore ----------------- filename: /lib/modules/2.6.9-1.667/kernel/sound/soundcore.ko description: Core sound module author: Alan Cox license: GPL alias: char-major-14-* vermagic: 2.6.9-1.667 686 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-3.4 depends: ----------------- Running kudzu shows; ----------- class: AUDIO bus: PCI detached: 0 driver: unknown desc: "OPTi Inc.
