From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.2-2 i586) Description of problem: When I run sndconfig on my NEC Ready 9732 with Aztech sound card, the plug and play card is correctly recognized, and I am allowed to select the port, interrupt, and DMA channels used by the card. After I make the correct selections (or even incorrect selections), modprobe is run and I get the following error message that is shown below. After that I can only try again with new settings. The only way out of sndconfig is to kill the process. The following error occurred running the modprobe program: /lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/drivers/sound/ad1848.o: init_module: No such device /lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/drivers/sound/ad1848.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/drivers/sound/ad1848.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/drivers/sound/ad1848.o: insmod sound-slot-0 failed How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Linux 7.1 on NEC READY 9732 with stock sound card 2. Open up shell with root permissions 3. Run /sbin/sndconfig 4. enter OK at every prompt Actual Results: I was shown the error information listed above and taken back to the display prompting for port, interrupt, and DMA channel usage. No selections produce different results, and the only way out of sndconfig is to kill the process. Expected Results: sndconfig properly configures the system for my sound card. Additional info: The version of sndconfig is: sndconfig-0.64.8-1.src.rpm
It's been quite some time since I've submitted this bug report, and I have yet to receive a comment. I'm now up to kernel 2.4.9-12 and I still get the same problem. At the very least I would like to know what the errors mean and be directed to some documentation that could help me track down the cause. I read the sound-how-to, but it was of little help.
sndconfig is no longer developed, and this release has reached end-of-life. Closing out old bugs.
