Yes, I could > put that call in rc.modules, but isn't it supposed to be called by ALSA? yes, but only if you set up /etc/modprobe.conf correctly to load the modules automatically. at least, you have to specify which card is the first one (snd-card-0). i recommend you either to build all ALSA stuffs as modules or to build them into the kernel. ciao, -- Takashi Iwai ALSA Developer - www.alsa-project.org
