Sound on Armada 1750 with Mandrake 9.2
Hi everybody.
Ok no sound card is found during setup, after install I run sndconfig
It searches for cards dosn't fing one, so I choose the "sound blaster" and give it the following: I/O Port "0 x 220", IRQ "5", DMA "1". sndconfig then attempts to play a sound file but the following error occurs:
Following error running the modprobe program:
/lib/modules/2.4.22-1mt/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o.gz
init-module:no such device
modprobe: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.22-1mt/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o.gz failed
modprobe: insmod sound-slot-0 failed
Now I know the sound card in this model laptop is a ESS-1688 but I heard it was soundblaster comp. and even if I do choose it the same error occurs.
So, is my problem that I have to fix the sound by rebuilding the kernel with the proper module support, I tried goofing with it last night (installed it off the mandrake disks) but when I tried running "make xconfig" it didn't work.
Any help would be appreciated, I'm still a newbie (1 week).
Also, any Ideas how to get an external mouse to work in addition to the mouse pad?
thanks mitch miller
