Description pavon 1998-12-15 21:36:53 UTC
I keep getting an error when recompiling my kernel for sound
support. I have a mss soundcard. durng cofiguration I said
yes to /dev/audio and /devdsp, MIDI, FM, and /dev/sequencer.
Here's the error message I get (and output leading up to it)

Upgrading to the latest kernel RPM from the errata should fix
this problem.
