(Problem: snd_ca0106 sound driver does not work)

Another thing you might try is firmware. Is the package

alsa-firmware-loaders

installed? According to the packages page

http://packages.debian.org/lenny/alsa-firmware-loaders

it should only be needed for the SoundBlaster 16 ASP/CSP Control Program.
But maybe it is used for other SoundBlaster cards too. Generally,
once a hardware vendor starts down the firmware path, they
tend to stay on it. Make sure that "non-free" and "contrib"
are listed in your /etc/apt/sources.list file or you won't be
able to install it.

Yes, Lisi, I did see the later post telling me to use Kwrite as root. I
don't see it on the applications menu, so I guess I will have to install
it. How do I use it as root?

From my earlier email (slightly edited, to allow for the fact that I now know
that you use some KDE applications but are running Gnome):

<quote>
Do Alt+F2.
Type "gksu kwrite" (without the quotation marks) in the small window that
opens.

When asked for password, enter the root password.

When Kwrite opens, load file as you would in a wordprocessor.

Save As to a new name. (e.g. conf.file.old)

Reload file under original name.
Edit. Save. Close Kwrite.
</quote>

But gedit is a also a graphical editor, so if you have that (and you probably
have since you are running Gnome), you could see how you get on with it -
tho' you would still need to run it as root.

Lisi

Stephen, This is the second time I have replied, but I don't see the
reply on the list, so here it goes again.
"Local" is in the /etc/modprobe.d directory; it has the right contents;
modprobe.conf does not exist; the "cat" command does show the contents of
the file, but I don't see anything that shows if it is plain text or not..

Here is a section out of the output of "lsmod" pertaining to loaded sound
modules:

snd_ca0106 27584 3
snd_ac97_codec 88452 1 snd_ca0106
snd_pcm_oss 32800 0
snd_mixer_oss 12320 1 snd_pcm_oss
snd_pcm 62660 4 snd_ca0106,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss
snd_seq_dummy 2660 0

snd_seq_midi 5728 0
snd_rawmidi 18496 2 snd_ca0106,snd_seq_midi

snd_seq 41456 6
snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_midi_event

I didn't see anything about snd_intel8x0 anywhere in the output.

Here is the output of dmesg:

If it looks normal, in the output of "cat", it's plain text.

I don't see anything obviously wrong at first glance. I'll take a closer

That's a problem. We need that. Install cdtool as well.

That tells us two things: (1) the chip is not on the internal modem
card that you removed, and (2) the blacklist is working. That makes
me wonder though. Is the sound chip on the motherboard? Is there any
evidence that the manufacturer intended it to be the sound chip for
the system? Are there audio jacks on the back of the system for
speakers, microphone, line-in, line-out, etc. that are *not* on the
edge connector of your sound card? Did you install the Sound Blaster
Live card as an after-market add-on? Or did it come with the machine?
