Help me Troubleshoot!

I'm not getting any sound.

I compiled my own kernel from the kernel.org source, and I bet I failed to check the right box, but I have loadable modules enabled, apparently?

Here is some possibly relevant data. At this point, I'm not sure where to go from here. I don't know if I need to find a kernel source module and compile it, which I've done for a WiFi card before so I can probably stumble through it again. Anyway, please council me, fellow Slackers!

And your sound was fine with a stock kernel?

If so, just rebuild your kernel with a stock Slackware config. Copy the generic config file in /boot to the kernel source as .config, do a "make oldconfig", do a "make menuconfig" and choose to have support for your boot filesystem (probably ext4) built into the kernel, make whatever changes you felt justified the custom build, and then rebuild it.

Or, of course, just switch back to the stock generic kernel.

If you have only one module (well, none originally from the kernel) loaded after building the kernel using the slackware-config, then you probably didn't install the kernel-modules. Do so by "make modules_install" in the kernel-source directory.

dugan, this is a learning experiment more than an "I need this working today."

eldercitizen, I will attempt this and get back to you. Not tonight, but soonish. I bet that'll do it.

Im having sound problems with dual sound devices, specificly in KDE. Looking that, I see a problem with default device selection for main use, its changed by defaul. I dont know how to swap to use the other under KDE.
