Uh, I forgot...

Executing more /var/log/messages results in (extract) :

>modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module sound-slot-0
>modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module sound-service-0-3
>modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module sound-slot-0
>mmodprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module sound-service-0-3
>mmodprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module sound-slot-0
>mmodprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module sound-service-0-3


That's all for now !
