weird.... very weird.... apps are still complaining of no soundcard, but
this is output of ls -l /dev/dsp:

[root_AT_hamish alsa-driver-0.9.0rc5]# ls -l /dev/dsp
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 9 Dec 16 13:09 /dev/dsp ->
/dev/dsp0

alias entries are still there in modules.conf too....

one thing i didnt do last night (because the soundcard got running
without it) was uninstall the mandrake alsa rpms... i might do that...
after all rc5 source should have everything i need there... it might be
confusing the files....

thankx
