>>hello all,
>> I have been running into problems when I go to rebuild a kernel.
>>If I do a fresh install of Linux I have sound support. When I go to

>>problems. I do the rebuild like this:
>>
>>edit the Makefile and uncomment the SMP lines

>>make mrproper

>>make menuconfig (select Sound Support with a 'Y')

>>make boot

>>make modules

>>mv /lib/modules/2.0.34 /lib/modules/2.0.34-old
>>
>>make modules_install
>>
>>mv /boot/vmlinuz /boot/vmlinuz-old
>>
>>cp zImage /boot/vmlinuz
>>
>>edit lilo.conf to have a backup boot option of the old kernel labeling the
>>old kernel old and new kernel linux.

>>lilo

>>and then reboot.
>>It seems that this would work but it does not. I'm thinking that the make
