So I formatted the root partition and installed from scratch. This time I kept the standard profile and only emerged the packages I wanted. I kept the kernel config (2.6.39-r3), so all the modules should be present as before. I have ALSA_CARDS="hda-intel" in make.conf. But I have no sound! KDE tells me the hardware doesn't work, and alsaconf says it can't detect any PCI hardware. Lspci -k shows snd-hda-intel module loaded though, so I can't see what's missing. Any clues, anyone? -- Rgds Peter Linux Counter 5290, 1994-04-23
