hi there:

due to a problem with the track pad with my linux laptop, i thought i
will try to resolve it by a clean reinstall Fedora Core 1. and now i
wish i have not done it....

while trying to get my pd back up again, i had encountered the message
below:

ALSA lib pcm.c:1972:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM ???
snd_pcm_open (input): No such file or directory
ALSA lib pcm.c:1972:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM ???
snd_pcm_open (output): No such file or directory
audio I/O stuck... closing audio


i installed the Planet CCRMA Kernal and reboot was fine. however, upon
starting Alsa after i have removed the oss driver, i got no [OK]
confirmation on that and no error either. i used /sbin/lsmod and can't
see alsa there either. could this be why? also, pss driver, i presume it
means the driver for my sound card, right?

many thanks

CHUN
