Hi Marc. Sorry for the very slow reply.  I found there were a load of updates 
for my FC5 install, including the kernel your having problems with.

I have an Ensoniq (ens1371) card on this machine. Its not the SB16 PCI one, 
which appears to be a bit earlier, but still using the ens1371 driver.

I know I'm working from FC2 on that machine at the moment, but 
your /sbin/lsmod |grep snd seems to be missing a load of modules. This is the 
output of that command on FC2.

[djmons@localhost djmons]$ /sbin/lsmod |grep snd
snd_ens1371            17120  4
snd_rawmidi            17184  1 snd_ens1371
snd_seq_device          6152  1 snd_rawmidi
snd_pcm                68872  2 snd_ens1371
snd_page_alloc          7940  1 snd_pcm
snd_timer              17156  2 snd_pcm
snd_ac97_codec         50436  1 snd_ens1371
gameport                3328  1 snd_ens1371
snd                    38372  12 
snd_ens1371,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_ac97_codec
soundcore               6112  1 snd

"soundcore" is very important, and as far as I know is the basis for "snd" 
being loaded, and then the other modules, including snd-ens1371.  This would 
explain why cat /proc/asound/version  doesn't exist.


What does the output of /sbin/lsmod |grep snd show for one of the earlier 
kernels?

Nigel.
