Ah, that shows that the driver is already in the kernel. So why bother
adding it yourself?
It wasn't in the kernel SuSE supplied with 7.3 - 2.4.10.
I had tried using the 2.4.18 kernel, and my sound went away, so with
what I'd learned in fooling with patches (relative newbie here - al
least to Linux), I added the patched driver to the SuSE 2.4.10 kernel,
and got both camera and sound (I want this for videoconferencing, so
both are required).
Then when I moved on to the Visor, I found out about the USB problem.
This morning I've tried the SuSE 2.4.16 kernel, and it's allowing both
camera and sync. Sound fails on boot up with a message about cs461x.
Modprobe cs46xx provides sound. So far, I've tested PCM and CD, and
tapping on the microphone with the volume up shows it's being picked up
too (although I haven't tried recording sound yet - the only app I know
of is grecord, and it complains about something else using the sound
device).
Now I need to determine if cs46xx provides complete sound support, and
why the system is trying to load cs461x, and if it's ok to just
substitute cs46xx in modules.conf.
Any thoughts?
