Hmmmm, I've never had kernel build > problems before, I must be regressing! i think while you're at it, you should get a more recent kernel, and be sure to grab the latest alsa packages (0.9.0beta12 at the time of this writing). don't go for 0.5.0, they are totally deprecated, even though the web site still classifies it as the "stable" version. 2.4.19-pre plus latest alsa compiles fine for me. if you have further problems with alsa, you should join the alsa user list at alsa-project.org linux-sound is a OSS list, and there's probably nobody who can really help you here.... in case you're interested in getting involved in linux audio a little more, i'd like to invite you to the linux-audio-{user|dev} lists at http://www.linuxdj.com/audio/lad/ best, j=F6rn -- Watch out where the huskies go and don't you eat the yellow snow ! - Frank Zappa
