when i try to run alsaconf, it says i should close all apps using the sound driver

how do i stop apps using the modules? and how can i list the modules in use?

i compiled the drivers into my kernel as a module


this is my card:
Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Live! EMU10k1

media-box ~ # modprobe -l
/lib/modules/2.6.14-gentoo-r2/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/iptable_raw.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.14-gentoo-r2/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_NOTRACK.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.14-gentoo-r2/kernel/lib/libcrc32c.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.14-gentoo-r2/kernel/drivers/usb/misc/phidgetservo.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.14-gentoo-r2/kernel/drivers/usb/misc/cytherm.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.14-gentoo-r2/kernel/drivers/usb/input/touchkitusb.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.14-gentoo-r2/kernel/drivers/scsi/sata_sx4.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.14-gentoo-r2/kernel/drivers/scsi/sata_sis.ko


i noticed lsmod does not give any output... so the modules are not loaded, how do i make them load?
/lib/modules/2.6.14-gentoo-r2/kernel/drivers/scsi/ipr.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.14-gentoo-r2/kernel/drivers/scsi/dpt_i2o.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.14-gentoo-r2/kernel/drivers/net/s2io.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.14-gentoo-r2/kernel/drivers/net/dummy.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.14-gentoo-r2/kernel/drivers/firmware/dcdbas.ko

is your problem, that you do not know how to manually load modules? if so...

Code:

modprobe module-name


so, in your case (I think the module is called so...)

Code:

modprobe emu10k1

how did you compile your kernel?

Code:

make && make modules_install


used this command?
