[snip] Well, Christoph Hellwig is apparently adapting the sound drivers to the newer module initialization scheme, which should make it easier to just configure drivers into the kernel. An additional change was the removal of /dev/sndstat and /proc/sound, so that explains that part of the problem. > So, is there a new configuration file that I need to tweak?

Well, from what I can tell, your opl3sa2 append line for lilo.conf should have gotten things working, but there was some talk of general sound issues with 2.3.50 on linux-kernel. Could you try 2.3.51 and see if that works? It contains a bunch more patches to the sound system.
