Hi!

I've got 2.6.3-r1 installed and it was working just fine.

I had used genkernel to get it configured during the
Gentoo installation...

After I got everything working (Network, X, Gnome etc.),
I tried to get ALSA up. I did the following:

Code:

# cd /usr/src/linux
# cp .config ~/
# make mrproper
# cp ~/.config .
# make menuconfig

I selected Sound Card Support as Module (M)

# make
# make modules_install


Now, when I start up, via-rhine wont load.. "modprobe via-rhine"
gives the following error:

FATAL: Module via-rhine not found

The thing is, there's a: /usr/src/linux/drivers/net/via-rhine.c

I'm missing something.. but what??


Thanks,
Kristy

assuming /usr/src/linux/ points to the correct kenerel source code. You just need to recompile the via-rhine.

My nvnet does this everytime I rebuild the kernel. I am assuming since it is a module, it needs to be rebuilt/reemergeed each time the kernel is rebuilt.

Thanks :)

Any idea how I should go about re-compiling it?

"Via Rhine Support" is already "(M)" in the kernel..

nm the recompling it if it is in your kernel. I forgot I have one of the few that aren't in the kernel.


Yeah so just make sure the the /usr/src/linux points to the correct kernel source. That is all the help I have ... Sorry .. I will continue to think about it though.

Hi.

Thanks for everything :)

I got it working by doing the "make" "make modules_install" again.

Everything compiled and now sound AND the network is working a-okay :)


Thanks again!
