You want to keep your existing problem in the same thread where you were getting responses. You may want to click here: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...threadid=16899 to access your original thread and post the new problem you have there. When you scatter your problem over the forum, it tends to confuse members trying to help you out.

just to mention on your problem though, the /usr/src/linux is where your kernel resides..
when you get the make command not found, are you root or a regular user ??
I dont think thats where my kernel resides then... im just gonna redopwnmload everything i need, format and sdo a clean instal... i login as my self but i go to terminal then su and pass and then i try... thats what i always do to instyall somthing....
Did you try sndconfig as root?
Because I had the same problem with mandrake, it didn't recognise my sound card ( at least harddrake!) but sndconfig, no prob!
