<para>To configure the <acronym>ALSA</acronym> drivers, you need to add some
lines to <filename>/etc/modules.conf</filename>:</para>
<screen><userinput><command>cat &gt;&gt; /etc/modules.conf &lt;&lt; "EOF"
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-<replaceable>[soundcard-name]</replaceable>
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-midi
EOF</command></userinput></screen>
<para><replaceable>[soundcard-name]</replaceable> needs to be replaced with the
driver relevant to your soundcard. If you have more than one soundcard, you
can add additional sections by repeating the above but changing the first 0 to
1 and so on.</para>
<para>After editing <filename>/etc/modules.conf</filename> you need to run
<command>depmod</command>. If the drivers you have compiled are for the
version of the kernel you are currently running, simply run
<screen><userinput><command>depmod</command></userinput></screen>
If you are compiling drivers for a different kernel version than those you are
running, you will need to use a line along the lines of:
<screen><userinput><command>depmod -a 2.4.22 -F /boot/System.map-2.4.22
</command></userinput></screen></para>
