Re: driver configuration (sound)

[Peter Christensen <christenpet@snip.net>]

Chris,

Thanks for the info.  I used apt-get to install kernel-image-2.2.20 and then 
2.2.20-idepci.  Neither one seemed to have the sound drivers.  Got lots of 
warning messages when I installed the idepci one, then it seemed as though I 
couldn't go back to the original one.  (You can tell I'm not sure what I was 
doing here!)  Good experience, though.  I figured I would re-install anyway, 
which I did last night.  I used the vanilla kernel as you suggested, and now 
I have the es1370 driver!  Still no sound, though.  I'm getting a message:

Error while initializing sound driver  device /dev/dsp can't be opened 
(permission denied)  

Any thoughts?  Will search for this in documentation...

Thanks,
Peter Christensen
