Soundcard module driver not load for CS4236B


Posts: 1

I check the kernel with make menu config and i found there is driver for CS4236B ( i read directly from the hardware sound card itself)
But why It can not load(live cd and after Installation)?
It work fine with Knoppix 3.7 Live CD.
I'm sorry I'm a newbie and I don't trying anything else yet, just 'menu config'
and i've tried
modprobe ... next add the module to the module autoload list by executing this command as root:
echo "<.....>" >> /etc/modules
substitute the module name for thus for the module snd-intel8x0 becomes:
echo "...." >> /etc/modules
and I restart the computer and nothing happen...
I attached dmesg from the computer...

The setting in BIOS is enabled Plug and Play OS..Even if I disabled it it still not work.. ( maybe different dmesg I don't try it yet)
in my newbie opinion maybe Simply Mepis 6.0 not detect the souncard in ISA slot....
But how....?
Help me please.. I'm really like Simply Mepis 6.0 I don't want change distro just because soundcard not detect..
Thank you in advance..
nb: my english is bad I hope you all understand.....

Driver not loading

Start the Knoppix live cd and do lsmod in konsole to see for sure what module it uses for sound, make note of it. Then restart your install of MEPIS and modprobe that module , if no errors as file manager super user mode type the name of the module in /etc/modules file. Then reboot and cross fingers and toes. Eye-wink With luck if its a plug-n-play card you might have noise. Be sure to play with kmix sliders and leds, some times they are not enabled by default.
