Is there an easy sound config tool in slack like sndconfig(sp?) for RedHat? It's one of the last few things I need to get working on my notebook. Or do I have to recompile it into the kernel?

Check first /etc/modules.conf or /etc/module (not sure anymore).
There is a commented list of modules.

Uncomment the module for your soundcard and reboot.

If you don't find a module for your harwrae, maybe you'll have to recompile the kernel.

Nope. The only thing in my modules.conf file is alias net-pf-4 off and alias net-pf-5 off. I guess I'm recompiling as soon as I figure out what packages I need to install to compile the kernel.

That might work. The sound chip is a ess688. It's supposed to be sb compatable so I'm trying it with the sb16 driver. I'll tell you if it works.
