re: sound card woes

[Rob Benson <rbenson ihl state ms us>]

Hi Paul and thanks for considering my question.

At bootup, it reads "loading sound module can't locate module sound"

The /var/log/messages file contains, in part:
Feb  1 09:52:04 rob rc.sysinit: Finding module dependencies succeeded 
Feb  1 09:52:04 rob modprobe: can't locate module sound 
Feb  1 09:52:04 rob rc.sysinit: Loading sound module failed 


In case this information might be helpful:
The exact entry in /etc/conf.modules is "alias sound maestro" (without the
quotation marks).

The sound files that I unzipped are "makefile," "maestro.c," "maestro.h,"
and " maestro.o" and are all located in /root/maestro-19991118/
