Well, I think I've made a bit of a boo-boo!

I ran the alsaconfig util and it found + configured my emu10k1 fine.  Now, 
however, the sound in KDE doesn't work.  I'm not too worried about the "minimise 
to panel" sounds, but things like GAIM have also lost their sound!  I've changed 
the sound source in KDE Control to ALSA but it still isn't doing anything.

XMMS works nicely in 4.1 now though :D

OK, I'm having a slight problem getting rid of this!  I've edited the modules.conf 
file so that /dev/dsp* should load emu10k1 (instead of snd-emu10k1).  I've dropped 
to RL1 and removed all sound-related modules, modprobed the OSS emu10k1 module and 
then brought back up to RL2 (which is the GUI - I've not got around to changing that 
yet).  It worked!  All the sounds are as they should be - KDE, GAIM, etc.  Yay!  
However, it doesn't work upon booting.  We're back to still having ALSA and no 
GAIM/KDE sounds.

I don't particularly want to edit the modules.dep file by hand... anyone got any 
ideas on how to fix this mess?

Cheers.

Grant.
