I run sndconfig to configure my sound card, a cs4281. Sndconfig detects the card and shows me the location of the module it's going to ask me to load. Then it tries to configure the card and fails with the following: module <path-to-module/cs4281 can not be found. I manually change to <path- to-module, check, module cs4281.o is in fact there. I try using modprobe to load the module, and get the same error.always 1. run sndconfig, choose sound card, when atempted module loading occurs problem occurs.module is not loading, no changes are made to /etc/conf.modules or /etc/modules.conf what ever it is now.some urgency in this issue. Again this is with a stock install, I haven't upgrade any packages, nor have I found any resolutions to similar issues. How Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: Expected Results: Additional Information:
What exact error do you get from 'modprobe cs4281'?
when I run modprobe cs4281 I get the error: <path-to-cs4281> module not found. I manually check the location where modprobe is going and in fact the module is in fact there.
Are you just doing 'modprobe cs4281'; for modprobe, you need to make sure you *don't* specify a path. Are the modules owned by root? What happens if you run 'depmod -ae'?
bug : 42398 From: Mauro Bertorotta <mauro.bertorotta@tin.it> To: notting@redhat.com Date: Tue, 12 Jun 2001 14:10:17 +0200 I have the same error on a newly installed 7.1 on a Toshiba Satellite Pro equipped with cs4281. The exact error message for - modprobe cs4281 - is: Using /lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/drivers/sound/cs4281/cs4281.o /lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/drivers/sound/cs4281/cs4281.o: init_module: No such device Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters I have runned before: insmod soundcore insmod sound without error. depmod -ae run without exceptions. Thanks Mauro Bertorotta
That implies that the module loaded fine, but didn't find the card; as I mentioned in private e-mail, I'd need the output of 'lspci -v' to debug it further.

OK, this appears to be a kernel problem in that it can't find the device. I believe Rik and Thomas Woller were working on a fix for this at one point...

I ahe
oops ... sorry ... this is the note ... I have installed Mandrake 8.0 on my Toshiba laptop and the sound works fine at the first hit ... Is possible to take this module from this distribution and use in Red Hat ? (I am not a very skilled Linux geeks, so if you can ... help me ... !) Mauro
moreover I have read a bug report 47199 in which the card works - even if not very well ! Are there some news from Rik and Thomas Woller ? hi from Italy Mauro
Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem persists. The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/
