Thanks for that, sorry to be such a royal pain in the ass.
Ive searched alot for this one, and tried many methods (inclduing editing the modules.conf which disalowed me IP allocation).
So i understand what hotplug is and what its use is (thanks :P) however, /usr/src/linux/ does not contain the .config file? The tree goes as deep as /usr/src/rpm/
Code:
root@james:/usr/src/rpm# ls -al
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 168 2003-10-29 17:08 ./
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 72 2003-10-29 17:08 ../
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 48 2003-10-29 17:08 BUILD/
drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 192 2003-10-29 17:08 RPMS/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 48 2003-10-29 17:08 SOURCES/

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 48 2003-10-29 17:08 SRPMS/
What i have done is started hotplug via the konsole
/etc/rc.d/rc.hotplug start
Code:
root@james:/etc/rc.d# ./rc.hotplug status

As you can see, the sound is loaded (i think) and is also echoed by lsmod.
However, when i played a music file through Kaboodle i couldnt hear anything.
Also, just to be annoying and save making another thread, how do i enable the scroll on my mouse? I modified /etc/X11/xorg.conf with the following, but im still not scrolling
# Identifier and driver
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
