I get this when i run: modprobe sb

Now, here's the thing, I ran that command after the first boot and login and got no error messages, now i'm getting that after the second reboot.

I think my sound is working though, alsaconf returned no errors, (i'm no where near the box right now --ssh'd in) I'm just wondering if someone can dissect these errors for me so i can learn a little. :-)

what does " #modinfo sb " give.....
maybe you gotto give an irq number and an IO adress.

well....if it worked before ???

you could try smth. like : " modprobe sb io=0x0300 irq=10 "
these values are just a guess ; you gotto fill in what applies to your settings.

( or just try, there's 16 possibilities )
