Hi all,

I am not sure whether I need to post this question on this forum or on the slackware forum. But I try in this one first. Here we go.

I just installed slackware 10 on an AMD k6 with a Creative sound blaster 16 PCI in it. At first I just installed only the neccessary packages to get the system up and running and then I started building things up on top. (the purpose is to learn slackware)
When I get to the gnome part, I basically installed everything that is needed for the gnome to come up. However the sound part seems to be not functioning.
The error message I get is:
alsa_sound: no sound card found!
So I search the internet and found that I need to run alsaconf. However after I run it said that No supported PnP or PCI card found. So no luck there. I know that the card is there and running and even it is recognized hardware-wise by the system. The /proc/pci has this on its list:
Bus 0, device 19, function0:
Multimedia audio controller: Ensoniq 5880 AudioPCI (rev 2).
IRQ 9.
Master Capable. Latency=32 Min Gnt=12.Max Lat=128.
I/O at 0xec00 [0xec3f]

And also the card run fine under RH 9 (or RH 7.2)
I tried to modprobe the driver (es1371) that I know work on RH but even with the driver loaded, still the card cannot be found by Alsa.

Do I miss anything here ?

BTW I have a custom kernel and only have the following configuration enabled on the sound part:

CONFIG_SOUND=m
CONFIG_SOUND_ES1371=m
CONFIG_SOUND_OSS=m
CONFIG_SOUND_TRACEINIT=y
CONFIG_SOUND_DMAP=y

others parameters are set to no (not set). This configuration works on RH

Thanks in advanced for all your help.
