modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module sound-slot-1

OK - getting SOUND to work under RH 3.0 is a
real nightmare, but I did get it limping.

Anyone got any ideas how to fix this one?

Sound: DMA (output) timed
out - IRQ/DRQ config error?

Its IRQ (5) is not shared.


And the second error is:

modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate
module sound-slot-1

modprobe: Can't locate module
sound-service-1-0

I can't find any reference to what a sound-slot
or sound-service is.

And lastly, if there is a sound guru reading this, here's the file I kludged together:

pre-install sound /sbin/insmod sound dmabuf=1
alias sound-slot-0 ad1816
alias sound ad1816
options ad1816 io=0x500 irq=5 dma=0 dma2=3 ad1816_clockfreq=33000

sound-slot-1 and sound-service-1-0 are module aliases used by program using sound services. It makes them independant from the real module name.

It may depend on your driver, but you have to add these lines after the 2 first aliases in /etc/modules.conf :
alias sound-slot-1 ad1816
alias sound-service-1-0 ad1816

Just give it a try.
