Thanks. According to that page the 4c machines
have an AMD79c30 chip. When modconf installs the
7930 driver there is a brief crackle from the speaker.
Progress! At the same time the audio module is
installed. What is it? A shim between the 7930
module and the kernel? Pity that none of the
descriptions are present in modconf.

True, it is monophonic but that is better than having
no sound.
Now when mp3blaster is started on a file the display
tries to show the Spkr, Line and Mic levels. Then
within a few milliseconds there is a bus error and the
blaster quits.
The Web page referenced above mentions "...
some older kernels don't match the minor device
assignments currently used, the audio snapshots do,
and you should be using these anyway. All devices
are character devices with major number 14."
What is this about? What is an audio snapshot?
Can anyone elaborate or direct me to documentation
which will explain in more detail.
Thanks, Peter E.
