Yes, it could be. I am not sure how to unload modules, but a search on this site might yield some good results. Also, maybe give rmmod a try, it sounds like a working command

It looks like that probably is your problem, but I am not sure. IF you can figure out how to unload modules, and then can try other things, at least you could figure out if the problem is that or something else.
Also, I was helping someone else out, and they plopped over to http://www.opensound.com/linux.html
and got that and installed it, and it just worked. That might be another route you'd like to take, your choice.

Cool

Hi! I'm a newbie running a dual boot of Windows98 and Bayanihan Linux (a Local flavor of Linux in the Philippines; see : http://bayanihan.asti.dost.gov.ph/ )

I've followed the instructions on this page: http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc...intel8x0#intro up until the instruction to do this:
./configure --with-cards=intel8x0 --with-sequencer=yes;make;make install

The result i get for the above command is this (excerpt):

checking for current directory... /usr/src/alsa/alsa-driver-0.9.0rc3
checking cross compile...
checking for directory with kernel source... /lib/modules/2.4.18-19.8.0/build
checking for kernel version... The file /lib/modules/2.4.18-19.8.0/build/include/linux/version.h does not exist.
Please, install the package with full kernel sources for your distribution
or use --with-kernel=dir option to specify another directory with kernel
sources (default is /usr/src/linux).

Please, run the configure script as first...

make: *** [include/sndversions.h] Error 2

</end of excerpt>

now im' stuck, don't know what to do next.
I tried ignoring the errors and proceeded with other instructions. It resulted in more errors. ;-(

Any advice?

Thanks a huge!
