Did you try that?

Or that?

Yes I did, here are the results.

Code:

debian:/home/jantosh/sound# ./oss-install
Checking for any previously installed sound drivers...
You appear to have the the kernel level sound driver installed as a loadable
module. Unload it by executing rmmod sound and try installing OSS/Linux again.

If this error repeats again you probably have the sound driver being loaded
automagically by the kerneld daemon. In this case you should log out from the
X Windows session, then press <ctl><alt><F1> and log in on the Linux console
as root and then install OSS again.

Am I allowed to do these changes automatically for you (Y/N) ? y

Error: OSS cannot be installed because there is another sound driver loaded.
Driver 'sound' has registered the sound device (character major 14) for itself.



*** You may try if running oss-install a second time helps. ***

Here is what I have installed:
install:/dev# dpkg -l | grep alsa
ii alsa-base 1.0.8-7 ALSA driver configuration files

I'm pretty sure you need version 1.0.9 to have the snd-ca0106 module.

rossjman1, I'm afraid I don't know anything about the OSS drivers so I don't think I can help you with that.

I have a Riptide audio card as well, been trying to get it to work in different distros, nothin works tho, ive tried alot of ways but nothings right...fixing to yank it out and put in a decent soundcard lol, that and the fact i have a 64 bit pc doesnt make it any better...

root@ubuntu:/home/darkwarrior0404/Desktop# lspci | grep Multi
0000:01:08.0 Multimedia audio controller: Rockwell International Riptide PCI Audio Controller

root@ubuntu:/home/darkwarrior0404/Desktop# uname -r
2.6.12-9-386

root@ubuntu:~# modprobe -v soundcore
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.12-9-386/kernel/sound/soundcore.ko

i tried downloading the cnxtinstall.run and following directsions but got this message:

its lost cause
