I tried running sndconfig to configure my soundcard and I get the following error message.

"You don't seem to be running a kernel with modular sound enabled. (soundcore.o was not found in the module search path).

To use sndconfig, you must be running a kernel with modular sound, such as the kernel shipped with Red Hat Linux or a 2.2 or greater kernel."

Here are the modules that are loaded and come up under the command lsmod

Module Size Used by
es1371 27168 0 (autoclean)
soundcore 5156 4 (autoclean) [es1371]
3c59x 22888 1


Does anyone have any ideas how to solve this problem.

I'm sorry I can't really help, but it does seem odd as you have the module loaded. I noticed that there are quite a few search results when searching google.com/linux for the error so hopefully you may find a solution there.
