Small question(s) about OSS
I have a small question about Open Sound modules.My sound is working, thanks to ALSA,but during the boot i see these 2 messages:
Code:
FATAL:Module snd_pcm_oss not found
FATAL:snd_mixer_oss not found
I don't need these since my alsa is working and I have sound,so I have 2 questions:
1)What do I have to do when I compile my kernel to include these or
2)How do I get rid of these messages?
TA!

Checked and OSS modules are there although nothing specific.Running out of ideas.

These are actually not OSS modules. They are Alsa modules, used to enable OSS emulation (for programs that don't support Alsa yet).
You may have them compiled directly into your kernel, not as modules. In that case, the messages can be ignored -- the support is already there, so it doesn't matter that the boot scripts can't load the modules.
Depending on your distro, there is probably a file somewhere in /etc that tells your bootscripts which modules to load at boot time. You can probably remove snd-pcm-oss and snd-mixer-oss from this file if you compiled them into your kernel (the settings in .config are CONFIG_SND_PCM_OSS and CONFIG_SND_MIXER_OSS; if these are set to Y, then just remove the modules from whatever file).
If those settings are not set to Y, but rather are set to N, then you can reconfigure (and recompile and reinstall) the kernel, setting them to M or Y. Setting them to M will probably be less work (because then you won't have to change whatever file tells your distro which modules to load).

Thank you,I will check these things.

Well,no joy ...
Furthermore,since I have messed up with the kernel, now 2 FATAL appeared, ide_scsi and agpgart. I really don't understand, I have unchecked SCSI emulation since is not needed anymore in the 2.6.x and specifically said n to CONFIG_AGP , and still. ABout OSS modules , I will download the latest alsa to install it, in fact I di that, dnlded the tgz from slackcare, obviously enough , the FATAL messages are still in the list.
So far I have achieved :
Code:
FATAL:Module ide_scsi not found
FATAL:module agpgart not found
FATAL:snd_mixer_oss not found
FATAL:snd_mixer_oss not found
agpgart pi$$es me off because I will install later nvidia drivers.
Oh,lsmod , obviously shows no module used. I'll do it again tomorrow, now I'm too tired.

Try to just remove those modules from whatever file is telling your distro to autoload them.
This might be /etc/modules, it might be /etc/rc.d/rc.modules, or it might be something completely different, I'm not sure... If agpgart is being loaded by hotplug, then you can put it (and also the low-level module, like via-agp or whatever) into /etc/hotplug/blacklist to prevent hotplug from loading it.
