Jim,
Thanks for your response. The drivers were loaded automatically during 
the installation and appear not ALSA related. However, the &quot;test&quot; facility
from inside the yast hardware configuration should work regardless? It 
worked on SuSE8.2 but not on 9.2. I noticed on the SuSE site that there 
appear to be issues with ALSA drivers in the 9.1 distro, but presently I 
am not sure whether that has anything to do with my problem. Looking at 
/proc/modules a whole bunch of sound stuff is loaded and is practically 
identical to what is in /proc/modules in 8.2. I removed and reinserted 
the ALSA stuff without any effect. I am running KDE on both os's. I have 
not build anything into the kernel; what would that be anyway if the 
relevant modules appear to be loaded?
To Andrew: I was aware of that trick.
Presently my hypothesis is that I have a broken driver. I will try to 
insert the driver from 8.2 into 9.2, probably is not going to work, but 
worth trying. Thanks again. Cor van Dijk
