how to add commands to boot?

modprobe soundcore
modprob sb

how can i add this lines to boot?

tnx,

Add them to your start up scripts.. probably best to add them to your modules.conf file or something similiar..

What you want, is that those two modules are loaded at boot.

The way to do it is somewhat distribution spesific. In debian you would put lines to /etc/modules. In gentoo there is /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.4 that contain the same information in same format.

If your distribution doesn't have such file(s), you could try to look for a file called /etc/rc.local. If it exists, it is ran at the end of the boot and you could put those modprobe-lines there.

i have mandrake 9.1,how can i add them?

i'm new in the linux world,plz explain this simple languge..

Open up your modules.conf file in /etc or in /etc/init.d within your favorite text editor and add those commands or modules to the file. If you browse thru the list of modules, most likely you can just uncomment them. ( uncomment = remove the # mark )

u sure that its the file??

its only few lines there


probeall scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi
alias eth0 8139too
above snd-trident snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-slot-0 snd-trident
probeall usb-interface usb-uhci

plz..i need help

That is indeed the correct file. Lots of various config files only have a few lines, nothing to worry about though.

Make your /etc/modules.conf file look like the following and you should be set.

probeall scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi
alias eth0 8139too
above snd-trident snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-slot-0 snd-trident
probeall usb-interface usb-uhci
modprobe soundcore
modprob sb

the sound don't work and its make huge problems
