Re: Lost sound capabilities (/dev/dsp: No such device)

[Levi Waldron <lw@cedar.forestry.utoronto.ca>]

I feel so stupid.  ad1848 is not the correct module for the OPL3-SA2 sound 
board.  opl3sa2 is the correct module.  Arnt, you reminded me with your 
recursive module loading idea, that that is how I originally figured out 
which sound module to load: by loading every sound module and seeing which 
one worked.  Somehow, and I have no idea how, the opl3sa2 line in /etc/modules 
got changed to apl3sa2, and rather than noticing that I went about assuming 
that ad1848 is was the problem, when in fact it was an unused module.  
Anyways, "modprobe opl3sa2" makes sound work.  PROBLEM SOLVED.  In the 
future, when lsmod says (unused) by a module, I'll remember that it really 
means it!  Thanks for all your help, Arnt.
