How to disable sound drivers in the kernel?


How do I disable my kernel sound drivers so I can use ALSA?

-also- How do I uninstall my current (bad) installation of ALSA?

To disable any sound drivers in the kernel, go into your config (make menuconfig, make xconfig, etc) and make sure everything is disabled under Sound. [edit]: Then rebuild the kernel image and modules of course.

This is just speculation: As far as deleting your bad ALSA install, just try installing the current version of ALSA. My guess is it will replace/overwrite. If it doesn't, well at least you have the current version installed now.

Could you give me the directory where the config file is located for sound?
